sorry to hijack the thread, but i need some signatures for this cause, its house bill 875 and what it states is that the bill thats introduced is going to make it illegal for anyone to use organic anything. and who knows what it will do for the california agriculture .

i really reccommend you to go to the website below and read it for yourself. and please sign the petition thanks.

The bill is labled as H.R. 875 and S. 425.
US House and Senate are about (in a week and a half) to vote on bill that
will OUTLAW ORGANIC FARMING (bill HR 875). There is an enormous rush to get
this into law within the next 2 weeks before people realize what is
happening.

Main backer and lobbyist is Monsanto – chemical and genetic engineering
giant corporation (and Cargill, ADM, and about 35 other related
agri-giants) . This bill will require organic farms to use specific
fertilizers and poisonous insect sprays dictated by the newly formed agency
to "make sure there is no danger to the public food supply". This will
include backyard gardens that grow food only for a family and not for sales.

If this passes then NO more heirloom clean seeds
but only Monsanto genetically altered seeds that are now showing up with
unexpected diseases in humans

i actually went back and looked over everything a second time ands its making more sense now. i guess my only real questions come when you cut the fence posts and drill the holes in them, 1) the roots just go into that 4" area? that seems kind of tight, do the roots all overlap each other? 2) theres no water in the fenceposts? the spayers that run through can deliver enough? and does excess run out of the fenceposts onto the floor?(maybe i missed a step on that one)
3) and finally, where is the best place to aquire those neoprene disks

1. It becomes a mattedmess in there :)
2. Just make sure you get the EZ clone Sprayers, they do the job better. The sprayers water the plants perfectly.
3. Your local Grow shop/ hydro shop. Or buy them online. HTG Supply.com has been good to me.

I have an ezclone 120 pump/mister but the res is broken. Do you think your clone setup would work with it or would i have leak problems? that thing sprays pretty crazy.

Just wanted to let you guys know that using a small oscilating fan on your veg and clones makes them grow alot quicker. not that they need to grow any quicker then they already do.

every 3 weeks till you get 3 built. 3 total for a 9 week harvest so you get the sea of green perpetual grow. or add more than 3 and have larger harvest. so yes if you only have one built and its allmost week 3 of flowering build your 2nd one then 3 weeks after you have the 2nd one flowering built the 3rd. hope this helps

If you see the edges of your leaves curling up that usually means that the leaves are dissipating more water than the roots can replace.

It is usually caused by excess heat. The room is either too hot or the lights are too close.

Over fertilization has a completely different look. First you will see a small amount of tip burn. Then the leaves will turn dark green, almost black and curl down. The leaves take on a claw shape appearance.

My advice...Check your temps and raise your PPM. Watch the new growth. It should be dark green and lush.

If you bump up your PPM you will see the plant turn dark green within one day! I bet you won't see any new spots either...

PH is almost always a non issue in my system. Unless your PH is way off, the plant will have more than enough nutes to grow healthy.

Thank you. Do those spots seem like PH was the culprit? I'm havin' the toughest time with this Milwaukee meter. I tested the water at noon, 5.8. Five hours later, 6.3 same room temp., humidity, etc. I recalibrated the meter, it was off .5. Added nutes, adjusted the ph to 5.8, moved the lights up to 12".
I'm including some more pics of the spots. Would u mind looking at the root pics to see if everything looks in order as well?

Stink, I hope there is a special place in heaven for you and everyone who pitches in. Nobody has to respond and someone always does. I will certainly roll it forward when I have the chance. Many thanks,

many of mine have looked like that and been fine. I think heat fluctuation I doubt its ph. I so slack on my ph checking. I check mine only when I add nuits and sometimes not even then. My yellow milwaukee ph meter seems like a bitch till ya get use to it. probly airflow is key I noticed mine doing that from temp changes from weather outside and sometimes when I transfter from cloner to veg. how high are you lights from it and what type?:eyesmoke:

So you do get accurate ppm readings when using botanicare pro (organic)? Somebody told me organic nutes don't measure ppms accurately. I just started some ebb and flow tables and Im using the same nutes except biogenesis synergy instead of liquid carma.

botanicare isnt really 100% organic..........but they are amazing
i really love the smell of the blend
after i run out the rest of my nutes ill be using this line with all my plants

I had the lights planted about about 2" above the plants for the last 10 days 24/0. So, I've moved them up to 12". Should I give them a night off and let them rest for 6 hours or will the distance I've set them to give them enough recoop time? The lamps I'm using 2ft 4 bulb HO T-5 fluoros (Sun System. 2 are 24 watt 6500k and the other 2 are 24 watt 3000k (installed alternately in the fixture). I hope I haven't screwed the pooch and these babies can pull out of it. If they do make it, will the stress cause them to be less clonable? Milwaukee 600 is the PH meter. Do you store yours with the cap on or do u leave it set in non distilled water? I've been leaving mine sitting in the last water I tested.
You guys are great. Thank you.

dont worry about them leaves just pay attention to new growth. I think now that your lights are higher it will be better. I fill my ph meters cap with a few drops of the buffer solution with a small piece of cotton ball in the bottom. just let them go they should be fine. Next week you can trim them dead leaves off and it should be all good. dont think they will be any less cloneable. peace:eyesmoke:

Thanks Andy. I'll let you know. What did you think of the roots? I put Stinks veg recipe at just over 1400ppm. Hopefully, the healing will begin.
Goodnight.
