Your next watering should be ph'd water.

I would leave them on 18/6 until you flip.

Well Emilya found this so you wont need my help.

Post #6 shows Nitrogen toxicity and Tacoing which is likely due to heat. But overall those are looking good. The nitrogen is on the verge of stunting growth and then after then the next thing is going to be some leaf damage which is irreversible. So Like I said yesterday I would hold off on the ferts for a bit. If it progresses you will need to do a flush.

I read in one of your posts you are worried about over watering. Not sure if you caught this yet but what you do is wait until the plant starts to droop from lack of water and then you give it a full strong watering with run off. That takes care of the over watering and stimulates a bigger root mass. That means bigger strong healthier more robust plant above ground.

I will check back in regularly but you got a good crew in here already.

Yea I did wait till they were dry dry before I watered them but still don't think I have them enough.as for my heat issue I had a hell of a time figuring out how to pump the cool air from the garage down stairs to the attic but finally got it figured out im holding stedy at 75-80 haven't gone over 80 in 3 days even when temps out side were close to that so I think I have that problem licked untill I set up my hps but I did get a few exhaust fans just in case I need them

 

[Css1982]

I will keep posting pics and follow the advice given I have never done a flush before so that will be new.Should I trim off some of the damaged leaves or just leave them? I also don't know if i should keep the 18/6 light cycle been getting conflicting advise on that?
