Hey smokey! Glad to see you're back in the game. Looks like you've got a good start. Can't wait to see those little young ones grow up and become monsters!

So I got home from class today to find out the 2 of my WW stoped growing and 2 of my NL stoped as well :cry: They some how dryed out when the soil was still wet This is the hardest it has ever been for me just to sprout some seeds. The ones that stoped growing where all kind of small bet that had something to do with it.

Any hows I put 5 more NLs in wet paper towel after I saw that the 4 stoped growing. At least 4 of these need to grow or am going to be pissed. 6 out of 10 so far... so so I guess

Ok I have even worse news out of the 5WW,4NL, and 1 SB, only 2WW and 2NL rooted and out of the 5 other NL 4 poped. Not to happy with the ratio think im going to call Attutide to see what they can do. Hope I get some seeds back spent 225 bucks on seeds to only have 8 out of 16 to live 50% that makes me sick.

So I set up my DWC set up together tonight. Just soaking my exspanded clays and will have them all in there tomorrow.

And I hope to have picks up tomorrow

A shame to hear about the seeds. I spent 200 on seeds once and only 4/5 of them popped. Not the best feeling in the world, I know! Looking forwards to seeing some progress over there smokey!

Hello everyone

Well today when I got home from shopping for the ladies. I took a PH and EC reading and both where up. EC was at 2.0 and PH was at 6.0. I had to add PH downer lastnight and it did go down when I woke up this morning to 5.8 and in eight hours back up to 6.0 and I have noticed that they turning a lighter green in the middle of the leafs and kinda of browning leafs tips. But not in all of them; just, 1 or 2 of them. I think I may have Zinc deficiency by what I have read? and may also have salt block as well :doh: So I may end up chaning my res tonight, lil early "3 days" but better then later I guess

Here are some more pics for you all

Enjoy!

p.s. I take pics with my phone so not the greatest. I would take some pics of my possable Zinc def, but crappy phone I guess

 

[SmokeyTheBear]

But I kinda just F'ed up! I was trying to top one of my Wonder Women. I toped her, but also got a fan leaf!!! I hope I didnt F up!

One of my ladys is not looking so hot :doh: She is a lot lighter green then then the rest of my babes and has fried yellow tips. But I hope that now the ph is back to norm she gets better. I took some pics so you guys can see.

All the help I can get will be nice

Thank you

Enjoy

Oh and here are the rest of the ladys

 

[SmokeyTheBear]

Soooo yea everything is going good but that one laady see seems to be getting worse So any budy know what am lacking in or have a guess???

All the tips on her are sort of so yellowish and are starting to dry out. crisp like??? Thought it my be zinc but now am not shure?

Please Help!!!

Thanks

 

[SmokeyTheBear]

Ok I think I found it! I think I have the middle stages of Magnesium deficiency!

My book said to treat by watering with two teaspoons of Epssom salts (magnesium sulfate) per gallon of water! I think that is for soil thought not shure?

But it says that for Mg def. If the def. progresses to the top of the , it will turn green there first. In four to six days, it will start moving down the plant, yurning the lower leafs progressively greener???

I also nocied that a few of the other plants leafs tips are crisping out aswell. The worst one is not turning greener but is lighter in color then the rest? The others are npt tuening lighter in coloer, they are the same. But I did notice that some of them are forming white/yelloish spots on some of the leafs, not may but like 2-4 per plannt.

So I have no clue what going on, but it is getting worse and not looking good!

Hello everyone

So yesterday I got around to getting all my ladies in their own homes, and boy to they love them I have 5 of them in 3gL res's and 2 of them in 5gL res's. It was a pain in the @$$ took like 2 hours. It wouldnt of been so bad, but am running two stones off one side of my air pump. One of the stones on one of the buckets was spitting out all the air and the other was not getting any at all But I worked it all out and everything is good

Running my EC atm at 1.3/1.4 and ph of 6.6 Been working it for the last few hours. I just got gone adding PH lower so here in a lil bit should good. Hope around 5.8 like it should
