HELP! My baby has been under a grow lamp for (12-12) 3 days and is losing the deep green in the leaves and is yellowing. The plant is in a 150cm. x 100cm. X 50cm. cabinet. It gets alternating regular water and ferts each watering...when its dry. The lamp is about 70cm. above the plant, and there is a fan blowing when the lamp is on, so its not real warm in the cabinet. Question is...why? Is the lamp too far? Should I fertilize more often? Whats a mother...father, actually to do? Thanks for any assistance. | ||

First, to Beener. Thanks for the posting info, I'll try to get my posts in the right place. To Pearl, thanks for the fast answer. I grow in bagged soil...PH 5.0 - 6.5 (meant for cactus plants, actually), NPK 7.7.10. I use liquid ferts, and since I've just started the 12-12, instead of the recommended dose of 5-10ml. to liter water, I use around 1.5 per liter. The strain is 4-Way, a mix of different sativas, I guess.Humidity is generally low. Experience? Been doing this for a few years, and I've had this problem before. I've harvested plants that were almost completely yellow and I would really like to solve this once and for all. And I THINK I see the problem...N is too low, right? What do you think? Thanks again for your help. | ||

Hello DieHi, yep odds are pretty good low N is the problem....your ladies are still using a fair amount of N at this.....by the time your ladies finish the transition into the flowering state then they will require less N.........click here to check out a nute problem solver they may be of help any time you find yellow leaves..........dal

| Ok, now I'm trying an NPK 7-3-5 liquid fert, mixed to 3ml. per liter water instead of the recommended 5ml., to start at least. Maybe that will get those ladies green and lovely again | ||
