Vinager also works great at lowering your ph. Doesn't have the salt build-up that the ph down formulas have.

Ph 6.5 solved all my problems. I looked exactly like you. I grow in the same soil as you.

Hey Greenly, I've got the DR150 and the DR120. Great tents. Yes, they are expensive, but they are really nice. I'd be a little wary of the Ebay tents, but you seem to know the problems they have. The Dr120 seems perfect for my 500 watt mh/hps combo I've got going in that tent. I use it only...

Hey Zoom Didn't notice a big difference in my phenos. Not to say it can't happen. I've had some Mandela Speed Queen really stretch (like two feet). But with all five of my satoris (the other five in the pack were males), I didn't see much stretching at all. I was a little shocked...

I haven't had the best luck with Satori. Being a Sativa, it's very spread out...meaning the bud sites were small and spread out. This is probably due to my first grow. They had plenty of light. 1000 watt HPS in a 5x5 tent. The high was pretty intense. I don't smoke pot so I gave it...

I love Mandela seeds. I have some Speed Queen that is going to be ready in three weeks. I noticed that it has grown much larger buds and should double what each Satori (Mandela Seeds as well) plant produces. Man, your plants look great.

Re: Help with curling and brown spotted leaves - PICS!! Foxfarm is a solid soil for indoors. Your plants shouldn't need a lot of nutes until flowering. I'd love to know your water PH. MY initial guess is a ph problem.

Recalibrate using PH 7.0. I would think you can leave the probe in 7.0 solution...but I'm not sure. That's why I couldn't figure out why you had to leave the probe in tap water. The instructions aren't too clear. I had a big PH problem with my last batch. Upgraded to a more expensive meter...

It's going to switch a lot. You need to recalibrate every few weeks.

Had the same issues with the same type of grow. What kind of PH meter do you have? I had issues with the Milwaukee 6600. Switched to a new PH meter and no more problems. Funny that you added that you added Cal/Mag. I did the same with my first grow using a R/O filter. I ended up getting...

Dude, I'm a soil grower. Man, that looks like a PH problem. I know you want to hear it's a nute thing...and it might be. But the biggest thing I've ever learned about growing weed is get the PH right. I live on the front range of Colorado and my PH is not good. Around 7.8. My first grow...

OK, if you are growing in a decent soil like Fox Farm, then it's certainly the PH of your water. I've dealt with this. My plants looked the same as yours until I got a decent PH meter. This advice only applies if you have decent soil. Soil looks awfully dry as the other posters have stated...

Same soil I use right now. You don't need to fertilize them for a while...like 3 weeks with that soil. You've got a lack of light, but it seems you figured that out. Don't over-feed those plants. The Fox Farm has nutes in it already.

I'll bet anything your PH is wrong. I started with a cheap PH meter. I believe the Milwaukee 6600. My plants looked like yours. I finally bought a more expensive meter and for the last three months, my plants have looked great. I'm 95 percent sure it's your PH of the water. Use 6.5 for...

Best PH meter I couldn't tell you. I ended up buying a $70 buck job that seems to work. I think my PH was too high, but again, I'm not sure, as my old PH meter didn't measure correctly. All I can tell you is my plants looked exactly like yours and were fixed when I got the PH of my water down...
