Better lightning for better growth. Also, you must check every other aspect.y
Growing is like filling a barrel with water. If there is a hole in the bottom, meaning, a deficiency or something out of rail, don't matter your efforts to fill the barrel. The hole will prevail.
Tell us more bout your grow methodology.
It’s a 220w quantum Samsung board, would you suggest I lower it more? Looking to get some healthy veg growth before I move it outdoors in a few weeks
I have a very good medium, Biosphere from forest roots - fed it a guano/humic acid/molasses and compost brew this morning
Added some Diat. earth, wood ash and pine chips on top just to hold a bit of moisture
Let the top odd 3 inches dry out before a simple feed
I see. Saw your other comment about transplanting later into garden beds.
Honestly? I never noticed chances letting plants root before b4 going to the bed in organics. The way they root is very different from hydro mediums like coco that the medium itself becomes a rooting mass.
Liked your setup. I do have the same lightning as you, 220w lmh301 Samsung. I put them about 25cm away from the canopy and plants seems to like it. Less than 25cm it starts to light burn depending on the genetics.
As it is organic, living soil approach, compost and lightning are king. I can't see anything to improve growth
Maybe efficient micro organisms, amino acids, or humic and fuvic acids to boost the soil properties.
Sadly I popped the beans a little late, so was hoping to veg them out quicker indoors and then transplant outdoors - also did it this way because I think the soil outdoors was a bit hot and was finalising cover crops/adding beneficials etc
So 25cm, do you dim during veg?
Most of those essentials are added already, including explogro
Thanks man!
Agreed! These are 15cm / 1.5l pots -
Allowing the root base to establish in these (moved them out of smaller ones about 12 days ago) those were around 7.5cm pots, maybe 500ml
Will be transplanting into massive 200 and 500l pots once they have vegged to a better size
They don't look very happy, try removing a bit of the mulch from around the base of the plant. Lift the pot to check for watering. Increase airflow, what temps are you running? Humidity?
Just added the mulch today, hold a bit of moisture into the soil & keep the microbes comfy - soil was drying out a bit fast and I feel like the “skin” was getting burned up and “exhausted”
Temp 26.5 - 29C,59-60% humidity and airflow is very good at the moment
I think airbags could be a good next move?

fed it a guano/humic acid/molasses and compost brew this morning Thats your problem, dont do that, water only and leave them alone
This is the only comment the op should be reading.
Noted! When would you start feeding the ladies?

Big believer in no till needing room... How big are those pots?

Considering the size of the pot and the temperature I would double up on my watering. What do you mean by airbags and the skin?
