60 Plant Grow Setup

trenton said:

Aphid situation seems to be the same. Im killing as many that are producing. By foliar feeding you mean to spray the leaves. Im not gonna attempt that at all at this point. I have way to many buds forming... Also. My PH pen broke a couple days ago. Im really scared to water with nutes without checking the PH. I need to buy a new one asap.

you still dont think there is any merit to the worries of aphids?

Are you seeing a relation to the yellowing plants showing more aphids?
When you claim you are killing them at the rate of reproduction, if you are washing out clumps from the roots when you water?

have you added pyrethris to your water every other day for 3 waterings?

The most effective way to end their life cycle is just that!

I have to strongly disagree that this yellowing is normal.

you will be sick if you keep ignoring it. it really kills you to have vested so much time effort and money to this grow, and to see the plants yellowing infront of you.

i imagine the beautiful dark green tint to the room is leaning towards the lime green yellow look. @ day 20 dont waste any more time, if you know how to feed your plants normally then it is easy to make adjustments when they have issues.

Hey FDD I wish you had a PH pen I could borrow tonight. I really think some plants could use some nutes and water tonight but I dont want to do it if the PH will be way off.

trenton, you've spent SO much money on this setup and u can't get a PH pen get yourself an EC truncheon while you're at it.

Cali, please let me know your ideas to the watering. Abudsmoker what is the product you are mentioning to water with every other day. How much is it and how much do I use for each gallon. Also, can I use it with nutes??? Also, Snowwhite. I had a good PH pen but it just broke....

you need bulk form of pyrethris, mix with food or regular water, Water very slowly, cover the entire root mass. Slow slow slow. Everywatering your making 50 or more gallons of food so using foxfarm or spray bottles will break you.

i use Spectracide, if you have lowes go there 9.99 will make 32 gallons of 3% pyrethris. called bug stop for gardens. its stronger than fox farms dont bug me. this is not in the spray bottles. i will find you a link.

depending on how many are in your root zone you might have to use a product like hydrozyeme to help break down damamged roots and dead molding bugs. this one is usually 90-130 a gallon. but worth it to keep your roots in top shape.
after 2-3 good waterings the aphids will ALL be dead.

I just call ghost buster for those.

i have not used this one on my plants, however it will kill afids

1 Qt. Triazicide™ Soil & Turf Insect Killer Concentrate


i am having a hard time finding the bottles i use this looks like the new package maybe.

Spectracide :: Garden Insect Killer

here are pictures of mine



i googled the name and found a few retailers, but i purchased at lowes and paid 9.99

there is absolutely no doubt in my mind that is nitro deficiency, but abudsmoker very well might be correct about the afids causing the deficiency. Id give that stuff a shot. GH series has a feed schedule I would mix at 75% required dose for aggressive bloom minus the kool bloom and add 5ml/ gallon of the grow. that should give you a ph around 6.6/6.8 if your tap water is around 7.5. that should be safe till you get a new pen. and check with cali to get a 2nd opinion. good luck
