Went to get some dirt from my sister n her mans place. He grows as well. Well instead of wasting my time n money he had mag / sulfur shit there So i just took enuff for a gallon of his shit So i can fix my plants real quick. Fixed the water to 6.7 :P Gonna either feed them tomorrow morning if the soil is dry enuff or tomorrow evening to help fix their probs. I honestly think it was my ph too low cause i was feeding them 5.5 for soil !! :-x That started my defeciency spelling lmfao problems cause at that low it locks out lots of nutes.. So that could of been my main problem this whole time.. So i fixed that before im doing anything else :)

pH is important.

Everywhere I've been the tap water pH has always been in the 8's.. when adding nutes it dropped to the 6's. Up till now, I've been using the litmus paper strips to get an idea.. so when I feed my babies I give them water first, just enough to 'prime' the soil. Then feed with anywhere from full strength to triple strength feed. Then more water to let the nutes go through all of the soil. It has been working great.

:peace:

after you add your nutes,

before i add nutes my pH is 8.5, after my nutes its around 6.2 then I add a lil ph down to get it to 5.5-5.7 but your soil so you wanna shoot aroudn 6-6.5 if i'm not mistaken.

Hey man!
Your clones look fine and so is the plant at the pics a couple of posts before. I'm watching the flowering of your plant. Soon I'm gonna put mine too.
About the ph, since we're using the same nutes (Biobizz), although I only use Bio-Grow and Bio-Heaven until now, I've noticed that they lower the ph about 0.8, not more. Are you using Bio-Bloom yet? I'm buying that on Monday because I noticed some weird things on my plant and tried to find what it is and I think it's phosphorus deficiency. I found this post in another forum and it seems very helping when it comes to plant problems. It's: International Cannagraphic Magazine Forums - The Complete guide to Sick Plants,pH, and Pest troubles! Take a look it has pics and everything and i think it covers most of the usual problems.

PS - I'll update my thread later on with new pics and some questions. Please drop by and let me know what you think! You and anyone else who'd like to help.....

Ya thats the website taht saved my plant :) Lol i did kno it takes ph down and i also do have bio bloom. I have used it but when i used it my ph was way too low since then i've been working to fix my plant before i give her her nutes again i fixed ph, gave her the certain nutes she needed for teh problems she had now . I also gave her alil too much water in this process so now i'm letting her dry out for the next 1 and half to 2 days to hopefully see her perk back up n start growing again :)

yes, let her dry out for a couple of days and for sure she'll perk up.
Had the growth stopped since the problem begun?

dude clones are definetly tricky the first time around... but what really helps are heat pads and humidity domes,,
