Weird. I can see the attachments when im logged out. But when I log in I see nothing, no pictures, no picture link.

Day 28:

Changed buckets out

Chocolope #1 is getting 2ml/gal calmag (6ml total) and 21ml Ionic grow which brought nutes to .8EC

White Widow #1 and #2 got 1.5ml/gal calmag (4.5ml total) and 15ml Ionic grow which brought nutes to .7EC

Chocoshit #2 is still getting the same feed.

Right and I cannot even edit those posts.

It seems like people who have their photos attached, but not inserted, they show up.

I think its MG judging by how its progressing.

People here were saying my feed was too high at .3EC. Yet theres a grower here putting out a nice healthy plant doing more than what I was feeding so I think I was underfeeding.

Or I have some serious lockout.

I wish I could post pictures, i'd post my plants current state.

Day 29:
Two White widows. That shit is spreading like wildfire. Upped the MG like 3 days ago. So maybe im not seeing it reacting yet. Shits worrying me because there isn't a leaf without issues now.
Some of the badly affected leaves are dry and crispy.

Day 29:
Chocolope. Yesterday(Day 30) the nutes dropped from .8 to .7 so I upped her up to .9EC with 2ml calmag and 5 ml grow.

It does look like Mg. If it was me though I wouldn't have added the grow. Just would have added some cal-mag and you'd be able to add more in ppm of cal-mag rather than mixing it with grow. You already have plenty in there I'm sure till the next res change so your better off just adding the one thing to see what changes rather than two things.

Also if I was told epsom salts are good for Mg deficiencies. I haven't tried it yet but its in the grow bible and I believe it was Big Buddah that does the same as well.

Yeah epsoms are good. I don't have any and have calmag instead. I think its 1/2 tsp per gal or 1 tsp. And yeah I shoulda added just calmag, but it was only on the chocolope that I upped it. Which is showing some discoloring, but hopefully thats corrected with the right feed.

Yeah budda does recommend that. Hes a fine grower, hope to be that good and knowledgeable one day.

Looks like I can add that calmag after all...

Chocolope#1 today was 5.9/.81EC. From like .91EC. Looks like its getting 1.0. I'll up her to 3ml/gal calmag. Was cleaning up some under garbage and pulling some nodes through to get better light and noticed just how thick her stem is. 1.5-2in stem easily when all is done.

Not sure why the other Chocolope#2 bean came out so shitty. Came out the gate shitty and I never wanted to up the nutrients. Right now im kind of in a fuck that plant mood, so i've upped it to .4EC. Even though it looks like shit. Shes keeping steady at 5.8/.4EC though.

White Widows are steady at 5.8/.7EC. I think they were ready for this dosage a while ago(thanks "seedlings don't need food" mentality from people). I'm going to change out their nutes and add 2.5ml/gal calmag. Not sure maybe a full 3. They are mighty deficient, but I havent let them sit at this feed for more than 3 days to see if it helped.

I've had similar problems with the type of brown spotting, but I truly never really identified the problem. I just went around it through emptying ~2/3 res and filling up with new tapwater and that seemed to fix it, though stunted plant in the process.. I didnt have EC meter then so I couldnt measure ppm.

All in all its going well still and dont give up on the one being a bit slow, it'll surely pick up speed once its feeling allright, mine did. :)

Day 32:

DSC04417.jpgDSC04423.jpg
Both White Widows - 5.9/.7EC - Going to change out buckets and add 3ml per gal calmag and rest grow to .8EC


DSC04413.jpgDSC04414.jpg
Chocolope - Bumped to 1.0EC @ 5.8PH with 6ml of calmag. I must of messed up topping this one because it grew 3 tops now.

Chocoshit - Still being a bitch. 5.9/.4EC. Dropped to 5.8.

Weird it almost looks like its drowning or starving for o2. Well the roots anyway. What are you using as a medium ?

The chocoshit? Yeah it does huh--I've tried everything to get the RW to dry out. It's at an OK dampness now though and still looks like shit. Its about as damp as the other plants RW, which don't look O2 starved. Im using growstones around the RW, will probably switch to hydroton as the growstones wick and hold a lot more water.

Why not just try using straight grow stones ? I found with the hail that in the UC it stayed to wet as well. Just so much turbulence in there that it stays soaked. Had a couple plants stall because of it.

So I decided to go with just straight grow stones in the UC. Plants are back and growing as well. My guy at the grow shop uses straight grow stones as well instead of hydroton. It is a much cleaner and nicer product. Both have the same wicking properties pretty much. I think.

Straight medium would be cool. But I don't have an aero cloner. I started to build one, but couldn't find the right bit to drill the holes to fit the nozzles.

Maybe they do, I have never used hydroton, but I had read growstones wicked more.

Looks like the spotting stopped. Theyre all getting 3ml/gal calmag.

Bought Dyna-Gro nutes today, Pro-tekt, bloom, foliage pro, and magpro.

Trying to find a feeding schedule for them. Been reading homebrewers threads to try and find what he uses.

Unless BBC wants to educate me? Haha.
