    Getting Worried!!

    6.5 ph allows the plant's easy uptake of all vital nutrients. You know a good flush never hurts anything, especially if the is strong suspicion of over feeding. Overfeeding can also keep the soil ph all locked up or fluctuating contsantly, the runnoff could have a different ph than soil in these...

    Getting Worried!!

    Yep feeding everytime causes build up in the soil and then problems. Have you tested the ph of your tap water? Tap does have some macro stuff that is beneficial to the plants. It also has chlorine, so let it set out at least a day before you use it. luck

    Getting Worried!!

    Follow Fletch's advice and your plant will come back. If you light was burning the plants the evidence of light burn would be on the top of the plant, not the bottom.

    I have my suspicions, but def. need peoples opinion

    The problem is your ph. It should be 5.8 for hydro. 6.8 is ph for soil growing. Above 6.8 in soil then ther is lockout of cal-mag. Above 5.8-6.0 cal-mag gets locked out in hydro. Cal-mag issues will cause slow growth and diminished yeild if not corrected and then maintained. luck

    Wilted to hell

    So what are ya gonna do now? Your not going to throw in the towel are ya? I do believe there is a way to treat this issue. Either check the faqs section on this site, wait for someone who knows to chime, or PM a hydro grower.

    Anyone know whats causing this?

    Surely they have some nice product, their bloom boosters are good. I just question their line of basic grow/bloom nutrients. For a chemical line of nutrients calibration can get tricky and hot. I just feel safer using nutes that aren't so fussy, and perhaps I'm the fussy one, operator error we...

    Anyone know whats causing this?

    I used this line for my first 5 grows (did not want to waste the money I spent) and had many issues the entire time. It didn't matter how I mixed the solution or calibrated my ph, there was always problems. Right now all my growing neighbors are using it and they are having constant issues...

    new growth looks weak

    Nope pot smoking in the grow room won't hurt your plants. Your plants look good....for the weak skinny new growth give a shot of veg nutes. They are ready for their flower cycle, when do you plan on switching them over?

    What is this???

    leaf minors......not sure how to treat though......wait for someone to come along who knows about treating for this infestation. I had trouble with white nats not too long ago and treated with a mix of cold pressed neem oil and a drop of dish soap. I sprayed my plants with it, it helped some...

    Nutrient burn?? no nutrients?? *pics*

    And another thing to consider is your use of superthrive and miracle grow soil. The combo of the 2 may just be blasting your plants with too much boosting power. I'd say stop with the superthrive and then go with what Bone man said.

    Cutting Lower Fan Leaves - Help!

    sun leaves fan leaves.....same thing, no difference. You can cut off some of the lower fans to open up the bushyness and air flow, but leave fan leaves that are close to the top of the plant. You still need fan leaves to absorb and utilize light.

    Do I have leaf miners? **(PICS)** +rep for help

    Yes the one plant is a male and you do have leaf minors. It does not look like you have any nutrient issues. Along with the little trails the minors bore into your leaves, they also affect the health of the leaves, which would cause your leaves to look similar to nutrient burn. I'm not sure...
