I did and I was told it could've been a splash from the nutes when I was feeding but I seriously doubt that now that its gotten worse. Another guy suggested gettin the alg-a-mic to try and sort it out so i done that. I'm really just hoping that will fix it.

Nice pics there saerimmner, id say the problem that looks closest to mine would be a K defficiancy. Would a big blast of biogrow sort that out?

Also, would flushing be recommended? How do you go about flushing the soil?

Thanks very much for the help guys, much appreciated.

easiest way to flush is just lift the pot and sit it in the bath/sink. pour fresh water into it, 3 times the amount of water to the pot size i.e it its a 3gallon pot pour 9 gallon of water thru it, do it slowly and just keep toppin it up till uve used all ur water. let it sit a while till it all drained and that its. when its ready for feeding/watering just go back tae ur usaul feed schedule. no matter what the problem flushin can only help(unless you have an overwatering problem!!) thats about it mate, also watch u dont become too paranoid, leaves sumtimes go a bit manky and spotted, as long as its not rampaging thru all the leaves then its not too big a problem. after flushing cut or snip the worst affected leaves off, then just keep a close eye on it, if it still continues then we gotta think of other possibilities

you'll find thats as time passes and ye get mare used tae growin you'll start gettin less jumpy when u see wee marks on the leaves, ah basically dont dae shit wi ma plants , i am the laziest cunt in the world ah just let them get on wae it. ahll give a quick cursory glance when ah water/feed them and maybe once a month i'll actually spend an hour givin them a serious check out, especially half way thru flower when the chance of hermie'ing is at its highest and most destructive. as for damaged leaves just rip them off, itll do the plants no harm at all, and may actually help, coz a big fucked up fan leave is providing no energy to the plants and is shading lower growth from the light, obviously dont go overboard and strip it bare, although my mate does that , its a technique called lollypopping, i'm not that keen on it myself but each to there own.

ive kept all my old carbon filter and now i attach them to the other end of the ducting( the side that is the exhaust) that way all my warm air which may still carry faint smells of my grow gets passed thru another filter. i swear by it now, ive had knowledgble peopl in my grow hous and the cant smell a fuckin thing. after ive got maybe half a dozen old filters im gonna drill out the pot rivets and refill them with new activated carbon, its dirt fuckin cheap and its a fuckin easy job.......yep, ahm a fuckin tight arsed jock!!!

At the pub quiz last night, the question came up , "Define the meaning of the word 'Niggling'"

Whatever the correct answer was, it wasn't, 'A Niggling is a young Nigger'

We were asked to leave.

My daughter said, "Dad, I think our house is haunted by a poltergeist!"
I said, "Don't be so ridiculous. There's no such thing as ghosts."
She said, "My knickers keep disappearing. I found three pairs in your room."
I said, "Yeah... Poltergeist... You're probably right."
