Plenty of people grow healthy plants with 24/0, 20/4, or 18/6. Some believe they need a rest period, while others dont. I use 20/4 myself.
problematic first grow, new grow room.advice??

okay so i just heard a weird theory and im wondering if any one thinks it would work. if you took ur plant out of soil and cleaned the roots off and dipped it in rootone like ur cloneing and replant it would the roots grow more roots off them and make the plant grow faster?

You'll be fine to change the light cycle down to 20/4 if you want. Some members slowly increase the dark period for their plants as they get closer to flowering.
No idea about the rooting gel. Id be afraid to fuck things up trying to wash the soil away. Its your call. You dont have much to lose with these little plants though

What I'm saying is that if you're pH is screwed up, then nutes are being locked out. I've had this problem in the past. My leaves looked exactly the same. I fixed my pH, made sure I had the correct nutrient solution, and my girls have been fine since. Big, green, huge, and beautiful. I'd start my diagnosis with RUNOFF pH levels. Since you're in soil, I'd suggest shooting for 6.0.

You'll definitely get it at a hydro store. If you buy general hydroponics PH up and Down Kit you also get a ph liquid test kit. I think mine was around $18.
