Oh... really? 😂 Damn.. I'm gonna start dozing BioGrow and BioBloom starting tomorrow then. How do you even distinguish one from another?

Maybe you can train yourself to distinguish them by taste, label says it's bio. :biggrin:

I meant overfertilization from the opposit 🤣 But maybe BioGrow and BioBloom taste different. Who knows... 😂🤪

Depends..hope it won't happen but slowly increasing nutrient dosage helps to find the sweet spot. NPK is probably not a big difference between the too but I'd use Bloom now.

When the leaf tips are burnt, and you have no clawing, you know you're on the edge..

Every watering after that, humming 'Push It To The Limit' when mixing nutrients or the tea helps greatly in becoming confident..at least for me. :smoke: :biggrin:

I switched to 14/10 because leaves were still drooping about 50-60 minutes before switching to darkness 😅 This cycle should be perfect in case of this strain. However at 16/8 mostly top leaves are drooping, and not the whole plant like before - during longer light cycles. Gorilla Cookies Auto didn't have this problem - she was handling 18/6 pretty well. It seems that Lemon Cherry Cookies Auto just can't absorb that much light compared to other strains. I suspect it's because of more indica influence.

I have a plan on how to extend light cycle while keeping optimal DLI without dimming cobs or replacing power supplies: I'm gonna buy a second timer and each cob gonna be controlled separately. That's kinda neat because I can try to mimic sunrise/sunset by turning on/off one cob later than the other one and that way I can control DLI in the same time. For example I could set both cobs to work at 12/12, but one of cobs would turn on a few hours later 🙂

That's a good idea. :good:
It's funny because it's probably the easiest solution to extend and keep the light cycle for an auto but the last thing that came to mind. :biggrin:
We're a bunch of potheads 😁 :bongsmi:

@aCBD Thanks mate! The best wishes 4 U 2!

The tips looking off are not caused by nutrient deficiency or overfertilization. I figured out that this is a typical symptom of a light burn. Tips are yellow + leaves are changing a shape in a weird way, which is very characteristic for too intense light. It makes sense because each of my cobs is about 7000 lumens bright, so about 14000 lumens total. idk how much it would be in par, but I'm 100% sure it would be more than 10000 par at about 30 cm from the lamps. A lot of cannabis strains can't absorb more than 9000 par (especially indicas) - at least without extra CO2 😅 I'm gonna buy a second timer right away after Christmas to utilize the idea I mentioned a few posts earlier, so both cobs would work simultaneously for about 6-8 hours max 🙂
