The borg or def ????



these claim to be k2 5 weeks into flower
600w hps
canna nutes
2.6 ec from 06
ph of 6ish settling with orthophosphoric acid The concentration 81%
temps of 82/86

wilma system running 6 not 8
just found a few borg in there @ stage 2 maybe 3 6 leggers (bring on the persimilis and lacewing/ladybirds)
figured on a mag deficiency so have added epsoms
but the bottom canopy is very light green

I'm guessing P def

If you rub your fingers on the undersides of the leaves and they feel gritty that would be the borg.
 
Little green stains :badday: However my buddy is a gardener and i have fired in 4 six spotted ladybugs sprayed with the Picard Juice from 1toke and boosted humidity to 90% for a few hrs and have my Photoseilius Persimilis on route :bat:

If 2.6ec is too strong with a .6ec tap level I make that 2.0ec or 1000ppm do ya really think that is too strong for 5 weeks in to flower ???? :1help:

Re-reading sticky cheers litz :dance:

ok so with the borg we WANT high humidity?? CRAP thats why they took off.. its gotten dryer here AND had a few hot days SOO they have had lots of hot dry air.. #$#@%.... ok how do you get the humidity up.. I have always worked on LOWERING it.....

i have a trugen.. and run mine to 1.2-1.4 drop to 1.0 as I finish...

If you want to raise humidity you can always add standing pools of water in the grow room. Just make sure you add some soap or neem or something to the pools so they dont invite more pests. The more surface areas on pools the more evaporation and humidity.

Better option is a humidifyer on a timer
