Hi again growers. Was hoping to get some advice

I am growing girl scout cookies autos from fastbud 420

4 weeks in now only fed with nutes once 3 days ago 1ml per litre so only quarter strength,plants seem to be growing fast but started showing yellow leaf tips at top and starting to go lime green.


pot size - 12l
soil - bio bizz lightmix with 3 weeks worth of nutrient
ph adjusted water between 6.3 - 6.6
light - solar extreme 500 California light work hanging at 40cm above plants
Tent - 1m x 1m x2m
Nutes bio bizz grow and bloom

thanks for any help in advance and for your patience with me.

I don't know about the auto version but my photo versions love to eat the nitro during veg. stage mine are darker green. I don't know your ferts. I give mine fish/bat guano tea along with the FF grow big. Have you grown with this light before and have you grown autos with this light?

I believe your soil is still providing plenty and when you added nutes it was a little too much nitrogen for them. I know you said that the soil has three weeks of nutes but your plants roots are probably just getting to the bottom of the pot

No not grown with these lights before just bought them. My first grow I only started because prices are sky high at the minute with covid 19. Thanks for the reply guys much appreciated

I have had the same issue. I cut my nutrients back and raised my light an inch or two. Yellow tips as you have them are not necessarily a negative sign. One of my plants develops them regularly, no matter what I do, on the older leaves. The new and younger leaves are fine and some are a lighter green than you would expect. The yellow tips are only a danger if they start curling, turning brown and expanding.

Thanks for your reply Oldmangrower that's a relief to hear by the time you research online you feel your plant has everything under the lights wrong with them and I really need these babies to produce the goods thanks again
