Hallo to everyone This is my first try for papaya in a pc grow box. this is in 6th day in soil. Today i saw the leaves faling down and i am wondering why,? Every help is welcome.
The lights are 2x 40w CFL 6500K. But also heats my box out those bulbs and probably i will replace one with 2700K. Me too man can't wait.
well 6500k are for veg stage and 2700k are for flowering so yeah i would probably say 2 weeks veg and then 2700k for flowering
Of cource i dont't want to burn the plant !!!! What nutes do you sugest? Someware i saw a 3 bottle packet but i will buy them from my local hydroponics store.Is something that i must take a look before ask them for nutes?
Everything ok humidity about 45 - 50 % Air temp 23-28 with fans at 40%. Also a glass of ice remaining inside to calibrate the humidity. The only that i have mentioned is that one plant the leaves are very diferent from the others and looking up . Do you think that will die.?
Put your lights closer to them. CFLs need to be fairly close. Looks like they've got 10-12" between the tops of the plants and bulbs. I'd have it closer to 4-6" if you want to see it grow.
Going to watch them today and found them lying on the soil. I moved them today to 5 cm from bulbs Is there any possibilities to wake up or its worthless?? I don't understand from what was hapened this but i am afraid of the heat..
No i have to water them 3 days and i gave them about 50ml water each.the temp is from 22 to maximum 30.. Is there possibility to save those buddies?
12cm is a good height for the lights, sorry, it just looked like farther than that from the pics. Also, I was speaking in inches previously. 12cm = 4.7 in. But as far as them lying down like that, it looks like water issue. You said you're watering them 50ml every 3 days? That's not very much. When you water them, add water until about 10% comes out the bottom as runoff. Pick up the container to feel how much it weighs when wet. Wait to water again until it feels noticeably lighter (dry).
Just croped them and removed so new seeds are now on the soil 10-13 cm from the bulbs and the soil is almost wet.no water run out from below but i wet it. Also i put 1 soiltab each seed from below. @WeekendWarrior I know you gave me your best advise and of cource you mean inches thats my misunterstanding and my fault. Hope the new ones will be health.!!!
After a week update. One came out the other no.I dig a little and saw the ssed empty inside, I'll put another this day.So this is the one that is out now.
Just today 2 of the 4 leaves turned yelow. What do you think. Please your advise. Humidity around 40-45 Temprature from 25-30 max
