hiya noob4x4grow! i thought i was talking to myownself! :) just gave them each 3 cups of earth juice nutes in water ph'd to 5.8 and then chased with 2 cups plain water ph'd (using humic acid and phosphoric acid) to 5.8. along with the ej nutes, i added some aphrodite's extraction (sugar)...

yesterday, 26 april, i gave them all 4 cups of water ph'd to 6.0. 'nother lesson learned...planting in coco is same same as planting in hydro as far as ph is concerned. since i'm planting in 1/3 coco and 1/3 perlite and 1/3 soil - 2/3's of pot is inert and needs ph around 5.5 - 6...quite...

on friday 22 april (earth day) gave everyone 3 cups of nutes ph'd to 6.0 and then washed it down with 2 cups of plain water ph'd to 6.3. they were almost all drooping or starting to droop. it would've been better to give them the nutes a day sooner...will have to work on being more proactive...

dosed the clones with the tea last sunday, 17 april. today, a couple are looking thirsty, so i'm going to mix up and bubble some earthjuice nutes and feed them as they look droopy...(trying to treat each one as an individual). in 27 cups (nearly 2 gallons) of water i'll add 2 tsps of the meta...

today, i'm brewing tea...will dose them with it tomorrow...they've just been getting straight water ph'd to 6.5. i'm seeing more signs of deficiency, but i inadvertently gave them water ph'd to about 7.3 (my tap water is high ph) last week.

here are a couple of pictures of the lower leaves...i believe they are showing signs of potassium and phosphorus deficiencies...but i'm a rookie so that's just my best guess...here are pictures... there aren't a lot of leaves showing these symptoms and not all the plants...hopefully, what i...

hey sejd2131...you have inspired me to try harder, so i called my son, who lives nearby, has a bigger lot and way more privacy! he said, "sure, i'll take your 3 plants and let's see how they do outside! so there you have it...he's going to dig 3 good sized holes and put in some compost...

good monday morning! i've put a laptop in the attic so that i can journal more easily and accurately. i'm going to feed them once per week. since this is the first week of flowering, i'm going to up the silica and potash with some bud blood and pro-tekt. one teaspoon pro-tekt in 1 3/4...

oh would that i could, sejd2131!! we live in a small town and my husband teaches at the local alternative high school. it would jeopardize his job. but ya know...i was just checking them out...and i think i might stick #3 in the flowering room with the clones...just to see what she...

hello V! final post on this thread...i've kept the plants alive and have been feeding them they are starting to green up nicely, especially #3. however, i'm going to shut them down for a couple of reasons. mostly, because i've learned a lot from messing with them, but i believe they are...

happy saturday...it's a beautiful day here in the great northwest! i turned the clock to 12/12 today. wanted to do it sooner, but am a little nervous about putting them into flower as i know that things can go south and not be turned around if it happens in flower mode...but i'm running out...
