Get Help for Cannabis Plants Problems as Quickly as Possible!

It looks like catalysis with pistils . Like they are swollen with seeds?
Maybe they just stack and swell that way. But I dont think it looks male, but I ain't seen many males.
 
Week 6 of veg and I've got random spots!

315w lec grow light
2x4x5 tent
5 gallon fabric pot
Mixture of super soil, canna doctor coco coir, and ocean forest foxfarm soil.
maintains a temp of around 80 degrees and 55 rh

Hi Diestractd
The spots do not look too serious. Not too worry about them much so far. Keep an eye on it though...watch for spread. Could some of the marks (first set of posted photos) perhaps be marks were leaves were touching each other for a while? Regardless, keep an eye on it. I do have a suggestion, defoliate some of the older larger fan leaves to allow light to the bud sites and improve the air circulation. To help, I have attached a photo with leaves I suggest to remove marked by a red circle. Cut them off near the main stems. More could also probably be removed. You can also read the defoliating tutorial, link below. I can understand not feeling comfortable removing all of the suggested leaves but I think that it would help.

I ph the water at 6.0 or a little above usually. I use the foxfarm ph down to manage this.
my ph meter broke the other day as well so I've changed to just using straight tap water until I can monitor the ph properly.
I'm growing in a supersoil mixture so I have been avoiding any runoff when watering.
 
From what I've been told, you don't PH your water with living soils... Usually you only filter your tap water to remove the chlorine and chloramine... many will disagree and think I'm crazy, but my water PH is at an 8 after I run through the filter...and I think my plants look pretty dang good! I'm in living soil and do not water till run off also. If you insist on PH'ing it, only PH it to a 7... let the soil do what it's supposed to do, all the microbes and fungi etc are natural PH balancers.
 
I had forgotten about that tbh...
I originally corrected the ph when they were seedlings, before being put into living soil. I guess I just kept the habit up even after the transplant.
so maybe some sort of nutrient lockout possible due to too low ph?
 
Using tap water unfiltered will kill your living soil, one must use something to kill the chloramine or chlorine from the water such as lemon juice before using it in living soil..
 
I personally would just start with a filter... I use a Boogie Blue Plus Filter I got off Amazon. I attach it to the faucet I use for watering and then attach a hose to it with my sprayer
 
I just added lemon juice then let it set for 12 hours to stabilize the PH, then PHed it with black strap molasses, and let it set for another 12 hours to be sure it is stable (I need to go down just a bit). Vitamin C also works as does almost any acid from what I find. I dont find real clear on just how much to use.
 
Nervous about slow growth of auto flowers
friday will be day 14 since coming up through soil
18/6 light sched,
just H2O ph 6.5-6.9
1000w led
constant air flow 73F/60-70 RH in tent
I’m afraid they will flower before they grow much bigger

They do look a bit small from here, but remember the first thing they do is grow down into the soil. When they find what they have below they then grow up. In 1 - 3 more weeks they should start to flower. How big or small are these to be? Some autos dont get big at all, 18" is large for some, while others can go 48" or even more.

tangerine dream from growers choice
I think I have some drainage issues as well but woke up this morning and they really grew overnight so hopefully they’ll takeoff from here
 
Baddfish4545 I do believe you found the slow growth issue. Tiny plant big space taking longer to get roots to spread. Try watering next start with this setup if you do it the same way, try just to water small circle around the outer leaf area then gradually move outward to get roots to spread insearch of water. The whole pot doesn't need water yet just the small area. For now just keep moist do your best not to " over love " that youngin
 
Thanks for the tip. Soon after I planted the seedlings I had a bad feeling my soil was too “heavy” and wanted to start over. Then read to much about watering and over watered. Lesson learned. I hope I get something out of them
 
Oh you will get lots out of them you did not mess them up it's fine. Just follow the less is more for now with water, make them search harder for it. After that give big drinks they'll love you:smile:
