wow what is that... PJ? frostyyy!
PJ = Purple Jesus, that's all I know foreshore. I was told only that it was developed by a local grower. I got 4 seeds gifted to me and only 1 popped. I now have a 5 month old mom and about 20 clones in veg and flower. That plant and 4 others are just over 5 weeks in flower. I've been real impressed with her and just wish I had a male so I could bread her!:weed:

I can't wait to give it!! They're starting to smell so good, very fruity and sweet. :)

They took to the pots without a problem. I prefer to do as little transplanting as possible, and had to do it a little sooner than I wanted because of the peat pots they were in as seedlings were compromised. Thanks for looking!:peace:
I had the same thing happen earlier this year. The problem fixed itself later on when the plant caught up to the roots, the roots were feeding way to much to the small plant, and that's why it looked rugged.

Especially when you're growing from seed. Try it next time, trust me.

I got my PH meter today!!!:-P
Straight from the tap my water is.... 9.0:shock:
That probably isn't even good for me!!:spew:
I'll have the numbers for water after it sat for a few days, after nutes, and run off.:leaf:

You said exactly what I expected to happen. But they never grew out of it. Even after transplanting them containers 1/3 the size. I will remember that for next time around though!:-P

After sitting out my water still measured 8.9. I didn't need to water the girls in flower so I can't tell you until tomorrow what my flower mix will be. The veg mix the was about 3/4 strength measured 6.6. Right about were it should be as far as I know, the run off was 6.4. So if anything I should add a little PH up, any opinions?

Thats what I thought! Maybe I should start to read the water report they send me every year. lol

If it wasn't that high I would have probably been watering with my ph to low from the beginning. I wonder it very by time of year. Right now the water they are pumping out of the lake is cold as fuck and takes different treatment than it would in the summer.

I usually have lots of snow about now. This has been a strange winter though. We've only gotten about 4" all season, it's been cold a fuck though. I've been looking into collecting rain/snow water. I can get 275 gal tubs at work, we get a soap/water mix in them that is every friendly and easy to clean. That's a spring time project though, since the last few days have been to cold to even want to go outside.

damn, and I thought mine was high. I think this ph meter has gotta help. I think the 6.6 is about right unless you just wanted it lower. damn 9.0 huh? I'm gonna have to mix up a batch of nutes in the distilled water and see what it is. thanks bro

distilled water gives a false reading. i would never trust it and only buy it if i need a new gal jug. also just dump out the water. distilled water should be 7 ish but my ph meter reads 4 or 3 and i know thats not right.
