    SOIL Plants growing weird

    How kan i get rid of this green algae i tried some things i looked up but none has really worked but the plant seems to just have start to kind of grow normally. Any tips on what’s going on with the way these leaves are growing?

    2x6 grow tent with led stand strip lights, a pretty solid air system and a humidifier. I run a 18/6 light schedule and try to water once a day but have been basing it on soil meter reading and feel. 60-70% humidity 75 degrees temp. Organic water only soil

      Let them dry out before the next watering - that might fix your leaves.

      As for the algae- use your finger and mix the algae in with the rest of the soil on top or something else to mix it.

      Your getting algae cuz your soil is wet all the time. Let it dry out.

        Yes algae is a sure sign of over watering.

      I had the green algae in 1 out of 4 pots last grow on the perlite in my coco. Just a few spots in one plant. After transplant it was gone. Didn't hurt anything. I've seen it in pics of others plants too. I think spores on the perlite may have immigrated with the Mother Earth Coco mix. Again never caused me any problems.

        humidity is too high and watering everyday is drowning the roots. The soil should be allowed to dry out a bit (2 inches deep) before the next watering. Ph levels will be a factor but if you are not "feeding" them they won't produce much. Strip lights tend to be too weak to support good growth. Full spectrum lighting is the way to go.
        I hope there is an afterlife...there are a lot of friends and family I'd like to see again, one day.
