    some yellowing on my girls

    thats a great chart i saved it. very in detail.. but there's nothing wrong with these plants.. don't change or fix anything.. they're colored right, perky.. its very rare that you have an issue with a young plant like this. unless you're burning them with raw salts or fresh manure.

    yellow bud sites

    pic doesn't load for me either. yellowing on new growth can be a iron deficiency. can also be a calcium/magnesium issue.. but i don't know the ca/mg content of your nutrient line, so i can't say.. high levels of k can possibly contribute to a decreased uptake of ca/mg.. but it all honesty i...

    Brown fan leaves dying...

    you say you mix it with horse manure? explain this process as detailed as possible.. using fresh manure that hasn't been composted can be VERY HOT and burn your plants.

    White dots on leafs

    It's not PM. cross that off the list. white spots could indicate a calcium deficiency, which i dont think it is. it looks like either white flies or mites.. kinda hard to tell from the pics.but i'm willing to bet its white flies. you're outside. bugs are outside, there's not a whole lot you're...

    Dried Curled Leaves, slight brown spots, help!

    don't ph anything, you're in soil.. ph'ing to 5.9-6.1 is too low.. ideal ph for soil is 6.5, and you never should adjust ph in soil, its just not necessary. you're overfeeding them.. soil doesnt need to be watered every day, or fed every day.. the directions on the bottle are for a weekly feed...

    Aeroponic Cloning Issue

    True that when you put them in soil they don't need additional feed (cuz the soil has it). I do the same in soil after transplant. But if I were to take a rooted clone and put it in my dwc bucket of only ro water it'd be near death after a couple weeks of no food if it even made it that long...

    Aeroponic Cloning Issue

    not saying it wont work, but at that point if you don't give them anything at all, except tap water they're gonna be yellowing very soon, following by leaf death because they're hungry. assuming that you'd transplant by that point or around this point and start feeding them.

    DWC Plant Issue - Yellow Tips

    Aero and dwc is considered hardest hydro methods. Fyi. Look into maxigrow and maxibloom. It costs me about 25 dollars every 6 months running a 5gal veg res and two 10gal flower res being changed once a week.for simplicity and price it really can't be beat. I promise it'll work as well as the...

    Aeroponic Cloning Issue

    I use one of those cheap aquarium heaters, the pad that you just throw into the water. I've used a more expensive one in the past, but as long as your temps aren't really cold the pad works. It's true roots may not grow as well with nutes cuz no nutes causes them to search for food, but once...

    Aeroponic Cloning Issue

    but to me it looks like from the pics that it could be a couple things.. they're thirsty and not getting enough water.. they're definitely not getting any food (you're just giving them calmag which is not enough, RO and calmag will not keep a plant alive).. you dont need to give any food really...

    Aeroponic Cloning Issue

    I leave mine on 24/7. when you shut it off, it lowers success rate i found, because it causes the stems to dry out. you don't want that. I also don't use clonex gel. I just cut the cutting off, remove foliage except for the upper nodes and like 2 fan leaves, trim half of all the leaf tips off...

    DWC Plant Issue - Yellow Tips

    well, i will start by saying i run dwc, and if you want simplicity, the easiest route i found is to use maxigrow powder in veg. very inexpensive also. a 2.2lb bag will run you anywhere from 10-15 dollars depending on your source and if you get a discount. use silica also to raise your ph, i used...

    Ph problems

    It's the kool bloom raising your P ratio too high causing a misbalance of nitrogen and slightly hindered iron uptake, in my opinion.

    Aeroponic Cloning Issue

    if you're cloning in aero you dont need a dome as others have suggested. you also don't need to use RO water or calmag or ph the water.. just give them tap water. and a very small amount of bloom feed. then let them do their thing. i like to add dutch master zone at 1ml per gallon to keep things...

    Ph problems

    yeah thats def nitrogen, they're just hungry. a lot of bloom nutrients are too low in nitrogen, and too high in p. high p will block out micronutrients as well as hinder nitrogen uptake. didn't see you mention what nutrient regime you're giving your plants? also promix is not the same as hydro...

    DWC Plant Issue - Yellow Tips

    I think you're dosing too much cal/mag. all the nutrients are on a balance with one another.. raising one makes another less available and so on. raising calcium and magnesium starts to block k uptake as well as nitrogen. It'll also affect your micro nutrients uptake (Cu, Mo, B, Si). if your...

    R2o - nutrient formula (raw salts geared toward DWC)

    well, to put it simply, i started with soil growing years ago, i decided to move to hydro/dwc about a year ago. i started with bottled nutrients (dutch master gold), ended up at maxigrow/maxibloom powder.. which worked ok but i felt things could be better. the only option i felt was to move to...

    Any one part nutes that are good for DWC?

    im not in the business of selling pounds so i dont know the exact numbers of a pound. but good to know. soil is fine, its forgiving and easy. but it also becomes a pain lugging empty soil to the backyard for years and running out of places to dump it. much easier to dump a reservoir of water...

    Any one part nutes that are good for DWC?

    i dunno i just cant wrap my head around why using a pk finisher would be beneficial.. seems that the only thing that MIGHT make sense is it throws all the ratios off, causing the plant to force finish.. making N not uptake, and micro nutrients not uptake due to high p levels. maybe only in dwc...
