Do you use dolomite lime in the soil? I have seen this happen when I do not have the dolomite added well in advance of using the soil. Especially when it is just a few leaves. I am assuming these are all clones from the same mother

too often watering can shut a plant down.

I say overwatered - there is plenty nutrients in those pots for the plants to use - your goal is to get the pot full of roots while not over watering. You want the roots to stretch to the edges and they will only do that if the soil is moist along the way without making the bottom soggy.

I find the COM Stonington rather rich as well as the Lob/Compost - I use them to amend my soil and keep it alive. I ran an Auto once with Stonington blend and it was pretty much all it needed.

Many of us have dealt with Mg Deficiency...just as many have caused this ourselves. Mg is the one nutrient that can lock itself out if too much is in the soil Excess Mg will lock it out. Excess Potassium will lock it out. Excess Calcium will lock it out. So be very careful adding Epsom Salt...

ya, I am just catching up on the WHOLE Interweb. ...almost done with 2011

I do bonsai trees and you would not believe what we do to those damn roots. Just be gentle and use something like myco madness - get those roots going again.

I had two Thai Jam do this and it was my soil I had a bit too much N and they never really stretched and took forever to mature - and they sucked.

Bottom line you want a 4:2:1 balance of Potassium:Calcium:Magnesium Otherwise you will see lower leafs show signs of Mag def in week 4-5 flowering. my nutrients below have a bit of mg in the langbeinite but only enough to offset the Potassium. The Lobster meal has high Calcium and zero mg...

So I always amend my soil with slight amount of Dolomite Lime - it has made me not have to think of the cal-mag deficiency - it always seemed to work. But I have found because I introduced LOBSTER MEAL or CRAB MEAL it has some good amounts of CALCIUM only - and too much will lock out mg and...

every 3-4 weeks usually 2 tbs of whatever I feel it needs.

Here is the deal. 5 weeks into flower - soil Always PH my water 6.5 Mobile Nutrient issue as it started on the oldest leaves and is sneaking up the plant. Use only Dry Nutrients throughout grow Dr Earth HomeGrow Lobster Meal 6-2-0 Fishbone meal 3-18-0 Langbeinite 0-0-22 (plenty of Mg )...

Sure...but few of us are flawless in growing. We get in the way in more ways than one.

I just added a couple Hyperlite panels to my tent and I was shocked at how the plants reacted - in a good way, Then I saw that they do reach far more into the +700nm range. I am thinking it could be some slight Emerson Effect - now it has me wanting to add more Far Red

Pros - more light Cons- More power use Many howmgrowers are more apt to not give enough light - messing with Red-White-Blue spectrum before you even have a good saturation of light is not that useful. 600w is good for that tent

I stopped using HPS so I do not generate much heat. If I was using a 1000w lamp sure I would need to keep it cool. When I was using HPS I had my can-fan on 25/7

Oh you want what it don't have...always one of those. I don't need to waste the energy if my humidity and temp are in range.

that controller with the cloudline is the cats meow

Here is my take on feminized seeds. I formed this opinion from my experience. Say a plant runs on a scale of 0 - 10 and zero is a perfect female plant and 10 is a hermie. I have found that making feminized seeds you definitely move the needle up making the plant more susceptible to hermie. If...

Cloudline is where it is going. a) Humidity and temp probe (get the 't' model) b) It ramps up when triggered on not full blast right away c) Quiet perfect fan for a tent.
