Hi everyone.
Currently growing a Sweet Mango auto (Greenhouse Seeds). I haven't been doing good recordkeeping but I think it's around 8 weeks in. Here's some info:
pH: ~6.6
air temp: 74-76F
water temp: 72-78F
nutrients: GH trio, CalMag, Hydroguard
light: Electric Sky ES300 (running it at about half strength) https://thegreensunshineco.com/produ...00-grow-light/
As you can see in the photos (ignoring my sad spinach seedlings), I've got some rough yellowing, crisping, and curling. The landscape oriented photo is from the 16th and the other is today (25th). I haven't done any sort of intelligent trimming but every few days I pick off the dead leaves that come off if you so much as touch them. Usually get a small handful of leaves each time. Leaves all over the plant die, not just near the top or just new growth, and my roots look great which leads me to think it's heat stress. I'm currently putting frozen water bottles in the reservoir to keep the temps down (otherwise the reservoir will get up to 80-83F) but I struggle to switch them out in a timely manner because of my work resulting in the wider range of water temps I listed above.
I haven't gotten out my cheap usb microscope yet but judging by the pistils sticking out so much I'm guessing the plant still needs a few more weeks before harvesting (I try to harvest before any amber trichomes show up). What worries me is the progression of the dying leaves.
Any advice is appreciated!
