    Both Strains Developing Issues After Feeding - Pics

    Good eye. Yeah, one of my auto's had them bad. I haven't seen anymore after some treatment. How much BB should I add per gallon? 1/8 cup? And yes, they have plenty of drainage holes. Thanks.

    Both Strains Developing Issues After Feeding - Pics

    I'm starting to think it's somehow lacking nitrogen because roughly 10% of the leaves are yellowing from the outside, and I've only fed them twice in flowering and watered 3 times so far. Thoughts? Maybe some N? or hold off?

    Both Strains Developing Issues After Feeding - Pics

    I checked runoff. I'm getting 6.2~ I know that isn't ideal, but can a little more acidity cause that??

    Both Strains Developing Issues After Feeding - Pics

    I have two strains that are 3 weeks into flowering. I fed them a teaspoon of Big Bloom each with their watering last week. They are now both having the same issue: some leaves are yellowing at the edges, but not all, and the very tip of the leaves are pointing down and brown. Organic soil...

    1K HPS Distance - Relative to Temperature

    Hey everyone. I have a question regarding my setup. I've seen all of the HPS distance charts and whatnot; however, I would appreciate input from those that have had situations like mine. I have a 48"x48"x80" tent. 1000w HPS. 400 CFM fan that turns on at 78 degrees F. Now, I'm getting canopy...

    Underfed or overwatered in veg? Pics.

    These were freebies from a recent order. They are La Bella Afrodita and Cole Train. They are several weeks old. The lower leaves are slowly yellowing. I already clipped off two leaves that yellowed completely. The soil dries quickly given 80-88 degree temps and 18 oz cups, so I've had to water...

    LED vs. T5 for Veg - Opinions Wanted

    Hey guys, I want some opinions on which of my lights I should use for seedlings/clones/mothers - general vegetative growing. I have a 432w mixed-spectrum T5 lamp, and I have a 180w (draws ~125-130w) Apollo 4 LED lamp. My concern centers around coverage and light falloff. I feel like the LED...

    LED lamp too close? Help!

    It was an 8-bulb setup. 432w total watts, but the LED definitely concentrates the light greater.

    LED lamp too close? Help!

    I recently replaced my 8-bulb T5 veg lamp with a 180w LED. I was told I could get this lamp just as close to the plants as I can with fluorescent lamps; however, after a couple weeks, they are looking pretty rough. The other variable: I went with a different veg nutrient, so I was also concerned...

    4 strains; 3 weeks into vegging. I need some help.

    Ironically, they were under-watered. I know over and under have similar characteristics, but it's usually over-watering. I experimented with two of the strains and watered them about 5 hours ago. They look much better now. :)

    4 strains; 3 weeks into vegging. I need some help.

    Thanks much. I have many gallon jugs of water (I have a ton of houseplants). I may have fed 'em tap water without knowing, so there could be a pH issue. :-X

    100k Club (reported minimum annual income)

    I have earned between 88K-107K before tax on my investments over the past 3 years; however, I cannot take all of the credit. I inherited a portfolio from a deceased relative. It was earning poorly, and the investments were in high-load mutual funds that only earned 4.5-6%/annually. I've pulled...

    4 strains; 3 weeks into vegging. I need some help.

    I came to this site initially because I've decided to try indoor since I've been doing outdoor for some time. I guess I gave mother nature too much credit for her abilities because I'm now having some issues. lol Anyway, as I mentioned, there are 4 strains, and they are 3 weeks old in FF Ocean...

    Need Help Identifying Issues in Flowering

    You could've just told me she was getting a little too much P! Thanks for the link. I'm trying. Yesterday I ran some ducting from a portable A/C unit into one of the lower flaps. I'm trying to dial this setup in before I germinate the expensive genetics I ordered from across the pond, so I...

    Need Help Identifying Issues in Flowering

    The buds are beautiful. I realize it's natural for the older leaves to slowly die off. I was just wondering if it was normal for them to turn so rapidly (and the browning). So far, I've removed 4 fan leaves. I see the early stages of yellowing in a few more fan leaves as of last night.

    Need Help Identifying Issues in Flowering

    30-35 days into flowering. This is occurring on the lower fan leaves only. I haven't checked the PH in several weeks. 3.5g bucket with Ocean Forest. Big Bloom fed 1/8 cup twice a week. Temperature is 75-80 night/85-90 day. Humidity varies from 50-70. Am I overfeeding? PH off? Please advise...

    Temperature issues (1K HPS, 400 CFM fan, 106 cubic ft. space)

    Well, that's part of my problem. It goes outside because the tent is basically outside. I have it inside my screened-in porch. On days when it's 85+, I obviously am SOL. I hung the filter today with straps. The fan is still on the ground (holy hell, it's sooo much louder without that filter...

    Temperature issues (1K HPS, 400 CFM fan, 106 cubic ft. space)

    Hey guys. I want some input on information I received from a local hydro shop owner. This man swears I should keep my fan/filter vertical - and on the floor; however, I have two issues with this notion: it takes up valuable space, and I am having temperature issues. I have a temperature...

    Attaching fan to filter? (new to indoor)

    Thanks for the advice. I have a lot of extra ducting from some remodeling work I did in my laundry room (just happens to be 6" also!).
