So big leaves are good, eh? I thought it was just genetics. As far as my deficiency problem, it seems to be worsening but very slowly. I'm still trying to figure out the lag time between when I do something to the plants and when they show the results of that treatment. All plants are growing and green on top so that's a plus of course. Topper Harley is starting to show signs of burn and deficiency in the same leaves though. That curl and those rust spots in the first pic are all too familiar. I'm wondering whether I should remove leaves that are completely yellow like the second pic. Tetra, I'm an engineering major with only one semester to go but I had to take several chem classes (Wish they had a horticulture department:mrgreen:). I will continue to listen to my plants but sometimes it seems like their saying :finger:

PS - Slowpoke is finally redeeming itself

oops, here's Slowpoke pic.

And yes, I've now realized that if I don't send pics one by one to Sprintmail it makes them even smaller. Sorry for the eyestrain. I went to Best Buy and the only way they had the right USB cable for my camera was in a multipack that was $60. So hopefully CompUSA will have it cheaper.

That was good for a chuckle. I guess we were both stoned because I left out the "r" in "your." I meant "I hope your guys ship fast," not "you guys." No way you would post on this site that you're the owner of that store. Especially with that killer ass shit you're growing. That would just be retarded. So I am just as retarded for sending pics through Sprintmail? Guess I'll quit that.

Haha, If these people would do just a little reading, they wouldn't have to worry about this stuff. It isn't like this is a cheap hobby anyway. I've spent a lot of money just trying out new things. These people gotta suck it up.
I agree...If I knew then what I know now.......lol

I am alright with taking my lumps the way I am as I am learning a lot about sick plants, nutes, wateriung, transplanting, etc.....But you can read all you want, but I am a firm believer in on yhe job training. :mrgreen:

.....cuz I'm a dickhead like that. :bigjoint:

1 day later. You can see in the last pic how the stem looks almost totally snapped and yet the branch continues to do its thing; didn't miss a beat. All the leaves actually perked up about 4 hours after the drama, and these ladies aren't even in coco (i wish). Cannabis is truly THE shit.

Man,you guys don't know how good you have it.
When I started growing, everything was one big fucking secret, nobody would tell you shit.

Right on brother. Without resources like RIU I would have failed miserably. I know this because me and one of my buddies tried to grow a plant back in high school. (Wow, just realized that was ten years ago now:-|) With no knowledge of nutrients or light cycles or anything else, it was a pitiful sight. Just imagine the worst plant you've seen on this site. Two leaves and six inches tall:mrgreen: So thanks guys, couldn't do it without you. :peace::peace::peace:

So CompUSA had my USB cable for $9:mrgreen: I am getting worried about ph lockout because I gave label strength dose of 2mL/L (~7.5 mL/gal) yesterday and they still continue to yellow from the bottom up with the symptoms getting closer and closer to the growing tips. There's signs of other deficiencies too and I'm losing trust in my pH tester drops. They're for fish and the scale goes from 7.6 - 6.0 so I have to ph it to 6.2 where I can still see a little green and then drop the ph a little more to get it just under 6.0. But I've tested it - 6.0 looks the same color yellow as pure vinegar so this is obviously not very precise. The following pic is a test and if the size is right I'll post the rest too.
