    Problem with early plant

    humidity/heat/light all result in elongated seedlings. Not opening sounds like a watering issue (overwatering). If your using cfl's put them within a couple of inches of the light, get a fan blowing on them, and stop watering. Unfortunately seedlings are finicky, its likely they won't make it.

    Advice on a low maintenance hydro set up.

    Thanks bud, good to see someone else from michigan on here. You really think the legit table and res are the way to go? I checked out my local store and they seem pretty pricey, then again I was just looking at the setup+stand so the price may have been coming from the stand. I saw a...

    How much mL or oz of soap should I mix w/ water?

    Usually soap isn't used just by itself, its normally a wetting agent for neem oil. Wetting agent means it makes it soluble into a water solution. I usually use 2 tsp per gallon of liquid dish soap (non antibacterial is important).

    Advice on a low maintenance hydro set up.

    I've been thinking about doing some kind of hydro for awhile. For awhile know I've done coco+soil with about a 50/50 mix, results have been great but I'd like to give some kind of hydro a shot. The problem is I work a lot, monday and thursday tend to be the gauntlet for new plants as I have 13...

    Enough room for lighting?

    You could run 20 cfl's and they wouldn't generate the heat an HPS does. Also you have a variety of different options with HPS, look up "Cool Tubes". You definitely have the space but the heat an HPS will generate may make using one cost prohibitive since you will likely need an inline blower...

    Heeellppp!!!! Pleease asap drooping leaves help before its too late

    Also about your sons plant. Tell him to as quickly as possible grab his plant, pick it up, dig a hole in your back yard, poor gasoline onto it, then light it on fire. Then he should immediately find a book (preferably educational) and read it. Shortly after this you should see some improvement.

    Police helicopter infrared camera ?

    Look, everyone is going to comment right after me that LED's and Fluorescents are shit for veg, and flower, but when your stuck with a grow that has to be stealth they are awesome. Low energy consumption, very small heat signature, and they get the job done. Maybe not as great as HPS or MH...

    It might not be mites, but it is definitely some kind of pest.

    Can she be saved

    If your concerned about yield, putting it back into veg for a bit may definitely be worthwhile. It will recover, but if its flowering it will do a half ass recovery and you won't get shit for a harvest. Send it back to veg and you'll be golden!

    need immediate help

    FYI MG soil is tolerable for adult plants, but look at their ingredients next time you have a chance. Most of there products have between a 30-60% nitrogen content. Worse yet most of that nitrogen is extracted from urine.

    need immediate help

    uhg that dirt is shit. Seriously you can make yourself some decent soil on a budget. Dig up some dirt from your yard, stick it in a bucket with some holes in the bottom, drench the dirt with your house for about 10 minutes. Let it dry for a couple of days, then stick it in the oven at about...

    Help with edges curling up, leaves curling down & inward, yellowing edges

    I do coca so its hard for me to say >exactly< what do do with hydro, but I botanicare calmag. Its synthetic so it can be left in the reservoir without a high risk of algae. I usually add a dose about once every 2-3 weeks since calmag issues show up often, and are very common. I wouldn't...

    Ok... Tell me what ya think!

    Its definitely Nitrogen. If your using nutes as directed this is very natural and usually left unaddressed during late flower. Nitrogen will slow flowering a bit and leave a bad taste in buds so in most flower specific nutes its concentration is very low.

    Help with edges curling up, leaves curling down & inward, yellowing edges

    Ph around 6.0 like MGG suggested will help with Calmag absorption, and rule out simple pH issues. I'd still grab some Calmag nutes and start using as directed.

    temps around 80 are good for soil/rockwool/peat pucks, waaaay too warm for aero. What your doing is turning your clones into broccoli.
