Your root development is ahead of mine, i just planted my best 18 clones fired up the mhs PPM -250 PH -5.7. The race is on hehe

lol, that's cool. I'm not stoned yet because I have a fairly important business email to draft still and I know I'd say stupid shit.
Ok, wasn't feeling too great about those brown roots. Good to know it's not something to worry about. I use some Advanced Nutrients root protecting products that advise not to use in conjunction with Hydrogen Peroxide, so I plan to stay clear of that. How do the plants themselves look? And what about that little spot? It seems to be getting a little bigger.
I have two of the MH lights on them. Think I should add the CFL? Also, check out that post again, I updated it with that video I took.

Plants look great, good to know u are already using root additives. Cfl is more light and good idea to have on all thro veg and flower. A little spot on leaf could be something and it could be nothing, wait it out and see if it gives you anymore of a problem u can spray them with solution but more than likely it will be fine. The plant will get rid of damaged leaves and replace with new growth on top, same as the splotchy one.

Roots look juicy, Everything looks healthy. That plant will produce more "splotches" as it gets older, plant will duplicate problems on new leaves. Take anything dying off ...with in reason.
MH should make them take off.
When you planning on flowering???

Please take a look at these photos and let me know what might be causing the lime green, splotchy discoloration in the new growth. It also seems to be spreading to the top leaves. I did not notice this last night. It appears to be happening on a majority of the plants. My ph has remained balanced, the nutrient load has not increased, and the temperature in the box is stable around 78 degrees.
Also, this problem has continued to develop throughout the night...

I believe that those leaves at top are young, they should grow out. PLant looks healthy. Take off that one shitty lower leaf. Are there feminized seeds? Only one plant like that?

Thanks for the reply. Yes, these are all feminized. Only one plant has those brown spots on them. Its actually the one nearest to the fan (those leaves get blown around quite a bit - don't know if that could be a cause). However, the lime greeniness seemed to really become more obvious throughout the night and seems to be effecting 90% of the plants so far.
I'm a little paranoid about any changes I see since I have no frame of reference when it comes to what healthy development of these plants should look like. I have, however, attempted three soil grows, and these plants are NIGHT AND DAY ahead of my soil ones at the same age.

I'm just keeping an eye on the growth. I'd like them to be around a foot at least. Since I only have 8 plants in the Producer, I figure I can top them to keep them bushy and shorter. In other words, I'm reasoning that since I have the extra space, I can veg just a little longer without risking them eventually growing into the glass.
Sound like a good plan? You tell me...

Can you tell me your ppm and ph?
ancap
Active Member
Sure. Right now the ph is 6.0 and the ppm is 580. Remember though, my tap water averages a high 170 ppm, so thats not all nutes.

not the same but mine is a clone. You have to remember that a set of leaves is one item. If one of the leaves become diseased or infected so will its others on the pair and most of the time the same leaves on the other side. They will die on their own I would not recommend cutting it.

Are you giving me exact readings from a tri meter or the ph/tds pen?
ancap
Active Member
I have a seperate ph pen and tds pen. These readings are from a couple hours ago.

You want your Ph to be 5.6 - 5.8 this should be checked every 1-2 days and check ppm to be stable if on the rise add water. How about your Rockwell cubes are they damp to the touch? If this stuff is all good it could be your water, ive heard of lots of problems with tap water in the producer, so i choose to use R/O water which cost me about $10 a week. I use a product that cleans tap water from harmful chemicals for my fish but thats most experience Ihave using tap

Awesome. Great information. I will make sure my ph stays in the 5.6 - 5.8 range.
I actually have a pretty creative solution for my hard water problem. My portable a/c unit fills a one gallon reservoir twice a day with evaporated water. I've cleaned out the reservoir and began collecting this water which has a ppm of 10-20 and a natural ph of 6.0! This will save me about $30 per month in water filtration! See any problem with this?

Welcome aboard! I really want to see this box create some action! I'm out a few thousand dollars on this unit, though I am very happy with the product and level of support. I've even got guys from the BCNL company posting on this journal to help me out. Happy customer thus far.
