OK here we go

drip/Bubble system

Hydroponic grow nutrients at 1/4 suggested rate

ph 7.1 when checked I know this is too high

CWF lights

Temp around 77-80

Humidity 24% low

Only see on the White Widow nothing on (6) other plants in the system..

one plant was toast already pulled it out.. Seeing small signs on two other plants..


I think it is a nutrient lock out so I refreshed the system lowered the pH to 5.8 and made an adjustment on the Nutrients to get it to the recommended level now that I am two weeks in the system. Added a cool mist humidifier to the system

Any help would be great

I have added some more air cirulation trying to get the temp under control....

What do you think is the optimal temp for the widow strain?

its best to vegg under CFLs until the seedlings have 5 sets of leaves then put them under a HPS. the HPS is burning the seedlings try the light at 3/4 feet til you can get them under CFLs. :eyesmoke:

Tankers of thanks.Things are looking much better with taking your advise. I'll work on temp control. nights in my room have been cold sometimes as low as mid 50'sF or 12c.

So I have grown a White Widow, 2 different phenotypes and I have learned a bit about them. For a WW to get that trulty 'white' bud, during later flowering try to have a temperature change of 10 degrees F (day/night). In my case, the indica predominant was more sensitive to nutes and heat. I am just finishing them up actually, take a look at my grow as I am about to update at flush! (TONIGHT). https://www.rollitup.org/grow-journals/119133-my-first-hydro-grow-600w.html#post1873409

hmmm my friend had some problems with ww but not until mid flowering...

also ive noticed the plant has very few fingered leaves and is already deficiant of somekind...

i say soil is the way forward as it is so easy to do......you dont need to give a ganja plant any nutes for a few weeks

my mates plants were very very bushy and about 10inch's tall with no strech

he used to swear by his hps...unitl another mate showed him some 3week old plants under 1 x 250w cfl bulb

and the diffrence is pretty amazing ..ofc he still uses the hps for flowering but cfl for veg seems the way to do it too
