Hi guys wonder if someone can give me alittle advice on my ICE plants please. They aren't on deaths door or anything i just think they might be stressed and i don't know why.
I've just transplanted some new ladies into my flood and drain system (about 3 days now). They get fed every 3 hours and it takes around 15 mins for the system to flood and drain. i have CO2 at around 1500ppm, ph is quite steady around 5.8 but creeps up to as high as 6.3 over night; they are in new clay pebbles so I expect this to go away. They have only ever had nutrients since i have put them in the new pots [15 litres] and are on less than half strength of GH 1 part grow. Temperatures tend to fluctuate but never go above 95f and are generally around 90f. They are under a 600w HPS which i have now moved to over 5 feet from the plants. They have been under this for a few weeks prior to transplanting. Any ideas what's wrong? One of the plants looks a little like it's got nute burn but i don't think that this can be the case. they are both going a pale shade of green that i don't like! I'm thinking perhaps light stress 'cos the other end of my room has a 400w HPS and those plants seem fine, although one is a few weeks older and much bigger. I've attached pics, sorry for one shot not quuite being in focus and they both look a lot more pale in real life, my camera struggles to deal with the amount of light in my growroom and seems to get confused. I've got some G13/Maple Leaf/Hash Plant in there as well and that couldnt be more green - lot older though so not really related.
Any help will result in smiles and kudos; thanks.
