Probably a stupid question....

1st time grower and I couldn't find any info that I felt matched up with what I have going on. I have some leave deformation and some purpleling of the stems closes to the leafs.
Strain is GSCxMidnight
Light is a Samsung cob led light approx 400w true draw
Room temp varies from 70 to 78
Rh sits around 40%-60%
Soil is mother earth groundswell
Water is declorinsted ta0 water
Ph 8-8.2 straight from the tap
Anyone have any insight?
Waiting to transplant until my pots make it in.




Also note that the planter with the bigger seedling and the small little two leafer came from the same seed....

Too much water

Too much water

Is that in reference to the leaves? The purple stems? Or both?

That ph is high

Yeah, that pH is high, very high. Need to drop it to 6.5-7. Swinging around in that range would be much better. 7.5 & above is pretty much inviting problems

Okay ill try adjusting my ph down then. I was under the impression that the soil acted as a ph buffer so as long as it was declorinated. Thanks for the insight.

I wouldn't worry about the chlorine content, just get the pH in the right range and you'll be fine. Soil is a buffer, but its not magic

Yes, get that ph down to 6.5
