Wow, thanks dude. It still looks pretty sh
itty though right? Lol. I gave gunther a major haircut which is probably why youre saying he looks good. The clones I'm just worried that they will end up like the last batch.. they have all the same signs as Megan did in the hempy bucket. Thanks for the kind words though dude.

Shitty but far from the shittiest. lol.. Still, I can see you are clearly grasping the grow concepts you are using, and I am glad you are trying to stick with something. Get through an entire grow, preferably 2 or 3 with something before deciding it's not for you, unless it is outright putting you out of business, then switch the fuck over.

Clean up your foilage on the clones. Even trim off the dead tips on green leaves.Your clones are starting to get good and big, maybe this is an opportunity to play around with different training techniques until you get your numbers up for your SOG.

Well.. I dont really have 99 problems, or bitches, but all my problems are with these bitches.

I know everyone is super excited to see the pics of my ladeez, and hear about my current problems! lol.

I have a few pics here of my seedlings - there are 5 of them, and looking alright for now but starting to exhibit some similar shit to the clones. Individdies of the seedlings;IMG_0997.jpgIMG_0995.jpgIMG_0996.jpgIMG_0998.jpgIMG_1000.jpgIMG_0999.jpg

Clones looked good for awhile but then started going downhill fast. The lowest leaves shrivel like a mofo and die, and it continues. Leaves get progressively more and more yellow, then eventually start to get spots/patches of brown, and then die; all except one rather strong looking one, from my prize mother before she died :( here they are -IMG_1002.jpgIMG_1004.jpgIMG_1007.jpgIMG_1009.jpgIMG_1008.jpgIMG_1005.jpgIMG_1006.jpgIMG_1003.jpgIMG_1001.jpg

Girls in flower.. well the plants look alright I suppose, if not a little underfed with some slight nitrogen deficiency. BUT I am having a serious pH issue. Normally the pH rises within 48hrs to around 6.3 or .4, then I pH it back down to 5.7-5.8. The past few day the pH has been getting lower and lower. So I keep adding more and more water to get it to even out, which is causing my nutes to dilute out.. Anyways If I add more nutes the pH will drop down even further as GH Micro/Bloom/Gro is pH buffered. So I have a little enigma I suppose.

But here are them two ; IMG_1014.jpgIMG_1012.jpgIMG_1011.jpgIMG_1013.jpgIMG_1016.jpgIMG_1015.jpgIMG_1018.jpg

I'm going to ship out some House & Garden for you to try.

Your seedlings/clones all appear to be calcium deficient, and yet your flowering plants are not, which is very weird.

Those things are producing way too slow for 40 days. I see your still having some issues. Although things look better than they did before.

Thanks for the input yall. Any specific suggestions for me? Or any guesses as to why those leaves are shriveling on the clones?

Thanks for looking them over Jo-sizzle. My runoff on the clones and seedlings was 370ppm and 6.2 pH so its not that.. The roots may need to expand but I haven't seen anything this severe from constriction or root rot. Environment is spot on.. I can't figure out why there was over transpiration / folding of the leaves on my ladies in flower.. the humidity is friggin low here. really low. - again, prolly the old nutes. Definitely will buy some news ones ASAP, but not sure how to tell if they are good or not.


Here we have all my clones (rather sickly looking) - progressed leaf crisping upwards...no big deal.
Two of my JackHammer clones are looking like they are flowering. Word.

My ladies in flower - Some weird curling of the leaves going on.
PH keeps getting lower every day- no idea why, but it is manageable right now, not huge fluctuations like I was having a month or so ago..

Gunther smells like a skunk stepped on a landmine in an apple orchard. Lots of sweet musky apple scent - pretty awesome even though the bud sites need help.

Here's some awesome bud I bought a few days ago, it was named "spice island skunk" IMG_1039.jpgIMG_1041.jpgIMG_1040.jpg

Really? That's all the input you have? You sure are helpful.

Hornet, how often are you watering the hempy buckets? And if your humidity is low it will definitely cause problems. But not like we are seeing. I seriously do not understand what is wrong with your flowering plants, they look like someone over feed them, even though you obviously have not. Have you ever given them just plain water and maybe a carbohydrate or some humic acid? Maybe they are all just locked up?

I don't know man, the plants are looking better than they did before but they still don't look anywhere near where they should. I think. Your clones are looking better, trim off the dead crap down below and see if they get better or worse, they always look worse with that scruff down below.

I water them once every four days I guess. I feed> wait 1 or two days> Water > Wait 2 days>Feed

What would a carbohydrate and humic acid do to help? I was thinking about getting those technaflora nutes like you suggested, but everyone I talk to loves GH.. still I might get them. Or I might just buy a bottle of regular micro to see if that makes a difference. I have been using hardwater micro this entire time. Thanks for checkin em out Jozikins.

Yo hornet did u flush your perlite before you transplanted? Those clones look wierd those shrivled leaves look crazy. Im looking at your flowering plants too trying to come up with a diagnostic according to your input and pics. They kind of look overfed. Almost like if salts have built up in the soil causing a lock out but you said your runoff is good. I cant seem to figure it out bro. I think you need to give soil a try bro and dont complicate your self. If you ever want to do something different and you need my help PM me. I got you bro I will send you in the right path with out failure. Another thing you need to prioritize is getting some good new nutes bro dont risk it. You need to make changes if its not working for you I think its time you try something different. Holler at me bro.

Hardwater Micro is definitely a huge key problem! That is why you are so calcium deficient, it makes perfect sense! It doesn't have much calcium if any because it expects your plant to get it from the tap water! Oh man, we went over this a while back but weren't sure, I don't know how I could have been so dense.... like my nugs. lol.

Mega, thanks for the kind words bro, I will most definitely take you up on that. I did flush the perlite before use, and yea I have never seen anything like It... Really weird. On the same token, I think I might need to buy some regular micro and get rid of this hardwater micro like Jo sizzle says. Thanks for continuing to help me, both of yall. Whenever I get my shit together hopefully I can return the favor somehow. I'm helping my cousin out with some clones in another city right now but when I get back I will get some regular micro and feed them good.

Thanks again dudes
