She's lookin super good bro. I know she is loving the HPS. It's the closet you can get to the sun :). She's still stretching so you might have a couple zones off her. Keep those lights as close as possible and those buds will be decent. Peace

Hey man she's looking good bro. Looks like it minor nute burn right on the cusp of being too much which is ok she should be fine. Can you get the HPS a lil closer so those buds can get all the light they can get

after flushing her she's only been given pHed water and some cal mag, so there's no way it could be a burn..... noticed the bottom leaves we're turning yellow and starting to wilt so I'm thinking it's a deficiency

I gave her a dose of 1/2 strength flora duo series nutrients with cal mag all pHed to 6.2 earlier so I will get back and let you know if she likes it

also my seedlings have been in little 20 oz pots for about 5 days now and have not popped out of the soil, they were all germinated with about 1/4 inch tap root some even more than that, and I can see all of the broken shells above the surface..... but no sign of foliage at all it's really weird. I watered them about 2 days into it the too of the soil was so dry it was crunchy maybe they got uprooted and floated around?

would that mean they are just gonna take more time to come out or did I kill them? I didn't add much water maybe just 1/8th water bottle each (pHed)

here's a picture of the lady

about 8 inches from the light makes it about 80 degrees at the canopy

I use the hand test if you hand can stand the heat for mor than a few minutes the plant should be able to if not then raise the lights a lil more. You want them as close as possible now since she's stretched a lot and need that light to penetrate the lower branches. She's really stretching like crazy bro. You should def get what I told you but is those spots all over or is it just on one leaf

well I'm going to run garden hose into my AC vent in my room and blow cold air in the room to keep it a good temp around the light I moved her up to about 9 inches from the HPS till then

and it was def a nutrient deficiency I have her what she wanted and she perked right up overnight

Yea bro she's looking awesome. Very pretty ;). She's def recovered and is very green and perky. What did you do to get her back right. You can remove a few leaves to help with the lower buds but not a lot as she needs them to feed. Keep it up bro

Found the problem. Tested my run off pH, it was about 5.4 way too low. Def getting a lockout of some kind. how can I fix this? I've already flushed once this grow, and if I need too I can just start raising the ph of my tap water to 7.0.

I water with 6.0 pHed water, runoff is 5.4

Honestly bro those leaves are one the very bottom so it looks like she's just about used all the food in them. I would just snip them off. Would prolly help her breath a lil better too but just the dead and dying ones. It's something in your soil that is causing the pH to be low or could be the nutes have bonded and caused something lockout but from the last pix she looks great. I'm sure you took care of it won't be too long bro!!!! Peace

so I got everything all worked out now hopefully, got my ppm meter in the mail today too so now I'm able to check that. her sites are starting to explode and I'm feeling like I'm def gonna see some serious growth in the next week covered her in extra CFLs too!
