The hardest part of forums is trying to figure out the good advise from the bad advise. Maybe I don't add enough info but when I add all the info people are like "to long, didn't read" So, the leaves were dark green shortly after I put them in Happy Frog. They spent about 6 weeks in Happy Frog...

Wow were you correct about high ph. Sorry I doubted you. The run off water is at 7.44 ph. Can someone explain to me how the ph got so high? Please. The soil is Ocean Forest and the water I use is ph'd to 6.5. I am not using any nutes except the calmag I used during the last two waterings...

Just went to water but they weren't ready for water yet so I'll test the run off tomorrow.

I haven't added any nutes except the CalMag on the last watering and some SuperThrive (I think it a 1/4 teaspoon to 1 gallon) when I first planted them but that was 2 months ago. I got almost no growth until last week.

Water is ph'd to 6.5 put into Ocean Forest soil. I'll check ph of water run off tomorrow when I water. Other then that, what do you suggest? Hillbillybuddha

Clones, Transplanted into Happy Frog 8 weeks ago. Didn't do well. Transplanted into Ocean Forest 2 weeks ago, finally growing. I was overwatering (first time grower) but I think I have that under control now. HPS 600w, four plants. 5 gallon pots. Added CalMag last watering, 4 days ago.

I got the grow room finished last night. Haven't put my girls into it yet. I ran it empty last night to check temps. My thermometer has a high and low temp reading so I can tell how hot and how cold it had gotten in there. The highest it got was 79.6 degrees and the lowest was lowest was...

I figure I'm going to go through the obligatory "first grow freak out" and kill half my girls which is why I'm starting small. I've done a lot of reading but I have very little practical knowledge. Things like; I know I shouldn't over water but I don't know how light a pot will feel when I...

I put it together today. It's in my basement. I just need to run power down there. I'll get to that tomorrow. 6x6 room. 5 ft10 inches tall (that's as high as the basement ceiling) 2 600w HPS 6 inch duct run from North (cool/shaded) side of house. Split into two four inch ducts. One...

CalMag is what I was thinking from pictures I've seen. I'm having a lot of difficulty balancing between overwatering and under watering. I know it's hard on my plants. Maybe bigger pots will help with that issue. You guys rock. I really appreciate you're help. Hillbillybuddha

I was thinking of transplanting into ocean forest. I feel like overwatering may have flushed the nutes.

Still overwatering or a deficiency? Happy Frog 3 weeks in soil 78 to 81 degrees CFLs lights I don't water till the leaves are limp, the soil is cracked and the pot is light. Hillbillybuddha

Here's a link to the use of CFLs http://boards.cannabis.com/indoor-growing/172116-what-spectrum-cfl-best.html

I do water till it starts to drip out of the holes. Not run out of the holes but I water until I get 2 or 3 drops of water out of the holes. Maybe that the problem? And I did a lot of research on bulbs. From what I read, it was 6400k for vegging but some people added 2700k for more light...

When and how much? I've been accused of over watering more then once. I adamantly denied my over watering ways but the time has come to admit the possibility that I am in fact over watering. I've watered my girls 3 times in the 17 days. Under four 2ft T5 bulbs (6400k) in a wooden box (see...

I agree that it looks like their overwatered. BUT I just can't imagine how that would be. I've watered 3 times in 15 days. It was hot in the box for the first week (which aids evaporation) and the last week, they've had a fan on them (also aids in evaporation) I dig down about an inch to...

I love when people say is overwatering. I've watered 3 times in 15 days. I wait til the top inch of soil is bone dry before I water. The only plant that had been watered 4 times is the plant that is actually growing and it's healthy. The other three started showing signs right after...

Ok. I got a new ph meter (actually the store replaced my defective one) I measured my tap water 6.68 then I measured the water I adjusted two weeks ago with the broken meter, 6.98. I've been watering my ffhf soil with this 6.98 water for the last two weeks. (3 waterings, no nutes) 6.98...

I'm going to go get a ppm meter and a new ph meter today. What should kind of numbers should I be looking for when I flush my soil?

She's changed very little. At this point, she's not growing but she's not dieing either. I guess it's just a waiting game right now. I appreciate the concern. Thanks. Hillbillybuddha
