Round two: Chocolope from clone this time

Alright, here we are again after a reasonably successful first go round I am back for more punishment! Things seemed to be going super smooth until yesterday I noticed some funky coloring on the new growth. Here are some pics, hopefully they capture what I'm talking about. Now for a rundown of the growing conditions:

Indoor in Sun Hut with 2 dimmable 600w hids and 8 led growmaster bars, temps avg 75-81 with 40-50% humididty

Medium: pro mix bx in 3 gallon grow bags

Water: single stage filter from lowes (filtrite)

Ferts: 3 part system Genesis from Green Air

stage of growth: 1 week into 12/12

Supplements: at some point in this grow but not at once: superthrive, greenfuse root & growth stimulant, tried liquid light but got scared since there is already so much light so I switched to a foliar of penetrator (got that with the LL) and Liquid Karma, cal mag - are there downsides to using epsom salt instead?, I have hygrozyme but havent used it yet, This last feeding only I used liquid sand (potasium silicate supplement from Green Air - something tells me this might not have been wise since no one else uses it. I don't know what else to add but fire away with questions. Oh, and there are a couple pics of a funky plant, I have a few that have these wide, almost flat stems with weird growth - they were like that before I cut them off the mother.

The PH of runoff was 6.0-7 but might be skewed because I'm sure there is a little buildup in the the containers below the bags.

Any ideas?

Thank you as always for your time.

As always, I am overmyhead

Well, I went ahead and got some clearex today and flushed them all out just in case, including new clones. From what I can turn up it seems like it is a good thing to do with the flush anyway. Homefully that will get things under control.

Do any of you all use any products along with clearex (like hygrozyme) or just phd water?

It looks like the clearex bath has put a stop to any further funky stuff. From here on out I am going to take it easy on the plants so that I know any problems arent due to lockouts.

Any experts have tips on how I can best use everything I have?

Thanks, I think that it'd be really hard to get it any lower b/c the pro mix has dolomitic lime in it to the point where i think it hovers around 7.0 I usually ph my mix to 6.5 or a little lower.

Well, I think the symptoms arent getting any worse so that's good I guess. Here are some pics, there is just a general one of the whole litter and then some close ups of:
1. my two crazy looking mutant stalks, see how the second one has litterally spilt.
2. all of my plants from clone on up have these silver patches but no bugs or feces at all. Any ideas? Look at the first grow and you can see how they were symetrical between the veins, havent seen that yet but honestly, I forgot which one of the plants in the original grow spawned the clone that took and spawned all of these so it might have been one that didnt do that???

Well, last night things seemed to be looking good. THere are some flowers starting to set - but I think that they've been getting 12.5 hrs of light for 11 days - one of the led timers was 30 min slow. Oh well, here are a couple pics with just the led's on.

Hello,

I will update with some photos asap but was wondering if anyone had checked out my list of ingredients and had any ideas of how best to use them together or if there are any that I should completely get rid of? Thanks!

I think that I'm going to back off on the foliar feeding from now on. I just got done taking care of my clones / mom and they all had pm. The sulfur burner really is annoying!

So, sorry for the lack of updates with pics. Things have been pretty busy lately. Wouldn't it be nice to be able to grow all you needed in one or two open outdoor plants each summer!

So, no pics from the flowering girls but check out these clones (and mom.) Could this be from the sulfur burn? They are hardly getting any nutes and are under t -5's. I will say that temps average about 80 with lights on. Pretty much every piece of new growth on all of them is sizzled looking.

Still keep forgetting to take pics of the flowers - not that impressive yet anyway.

I did want to mention that in my next generation (the burnt looking ones above) I fimmed half of them when they were in the cloner. I will definitely be doing that from now on as here is what one of them looks like from the side and top.

overall things look pretty good, flowers really starting to take off - I think that extra light time was slowing things up. Several have an obvious iron def though and their flowers are no where near what the others are. I don't know what to do other than to keep treating them all the same????
