yea im gonna stick with ph issue. also I always find when using ff nutes that I need to mix half strength grow big with 1\2 strength tiger bloom and 1/2 strength cal mag to get a complete nute the 3 pack is meant to be used together. if you only use tiger bloom during flower you will have deficancies. trying to figure out how your plaant came out so spindly with 1000 watts on it. be sure you are feeding what the plant needs. I have not used ff soil but I would imagin it would buffer your water to 6.5ish I know the nutes will buffer it down to around 5.8 but your soil should bring it back up at least pro mix does idk bout ff. if it's is root bound like buds says that would explain a lot. it takes a really good grower to keep root bound healthy

what is wrong wit my plants
PH, nutes lock out, and or possibly a salt build up/soil toxcity. Flush your plants for a few days with just water or 1/4 nutes strength. Then see were you at. And how close or far is the light to the plant canopy?

O, and are you using Cal-Mag?

Never never never reuse the soil unless its outdoor. The sun will break it down and kill the bad stuff and turn it to beneficials but indoor the lights can't do that. FF soil is ok from my expeirence. its good for bigger plants since they are pretty strong stuff.

I would say too much heat, combined with something else. Sort the heat out first, then work it out from there.

i'm not gonna tell you to trash 10 plants. lets go through the options. #1 can you transplant into fresh soil???? #2 you could get some cal mag and hope for the best #3 get one of those little soil probe things that tell you ph. they are not horribly accurate but would give you a general idea what your working with.and then figure it out from their. I don't know your situation I don't grow for profit so I would rather have a weak yeild than kill 10 plants and start over up to you but you should use fresh soil from now on I put my used soil in the compost pileand it makes its way into the garden to grow veggies
Yea beging cheap. Should i just trash them its like ten of them.

I have some doing good I dont mind throwing those away. I also have some clones that are ready to take their place. The clones are in fresh dirt and everything. those r like 5 weeks in to flowering how long would it take them to recover. The buds that r growing on them dont look to good barely have any white hairs coming from them.
