Go to the pet store, or Wally World, and grab you a PH test kit for aquariums first off.
I recently picked up a kit, and a bottle of PH down for about 20 bucks.
IME, most tap water comes out high, and even with a little drop when you add your nutes, may be too high.
Mine comes out at 7.9 2 years ago when I checled it, but it drops to about 7.2-7.5 after I let it sit out overnight.
You very may well be hungry there, but don't go tossing a bunch of nutes in until you have a general idea of your PH.

since it might be a ph problem... i do have a good jar of water up by my lady and ive let it sit for a few days to evaporate anything in the water such as chlorine and what not.... not sure if that will help much

You nailed it. I honestly don't think the "peat moss" makes for a good medium, and could see where it could be throwing the PH thus causing the leaves to twist, and also the yellowing. If it was me, I would place them into another medium. Such as a good organic soil. Add alittle perlite, and or vermiculite, and I bet my left nut it'll fix the issues.. :mrgreen: As for the Fish Emulsion. I use that "only" when I have any issues with any of my ladies. The reason I do that is because its a good NPK ration of all the nutes they need during "veg". And veg only. Your going to need something with a higher Phosphorus and also Potassium for flowering. Other then that they are looking ok, but my honest opinon they could be looking SO much better if you would do that. ;)

I agree with Rosey, they are all looking mighty fine. I like that structure on that Green Love Potion, will be fun seeing that one flower.

They survived without you hovering? Imagine that...;) lol
Epsom salts in a hot tub of water and soak as long as you can stand it. Works great for that soreness...

I wouldn't go digging up backyard dirt bro.. The shit you speak of would be to "hot" for the plants and burn them. Now the soil in the flower boxes sounds better! But you have to keep an extra close eye and make sure your not bringing any BUGS in with the soil. All it takes is for the soil to warm up and BOOM. You have spider mites! Hell, I would go with the soil from the $ tree before that. Lol.. That's if you can get a rep to pull some out of the back storage for you.. :??: Maybe.. lmao..

From what I know on this so far..........
I would say rather than dig up your backyard, (Dog shit, and any other kind of shit takes at least half a year to get good and decomposed, and break down to the point it won't smell as bad and burn due to the high N), I would say to repot, removing as much of the existing soil as you can while still being gentle, and put her into a mix of your MG soil (with the balls still in), and about 30-40% perlite.

You could reuse that. May have to use or feed alittle more where the 1st set drained the nutes out, but that's no big deal. Hell I do it all the time! I just add back a mixture that adds back nutes to the soil and reuse mine. ;)

what is it about your left nut...does it hang low or somethin? lol j/k had to say it...HAD to!:)

I've used outdoor soil before. I just bake it for about an hour on low and let it cool, then add in my organic materials and perlite. Works like a charm ;)
