See how your leaves are creased and look ribbed. Keep your water and nutes ph between 6.2 and 6.5 in soil Those leaves will flatten out, meaning they are happy. Also watch your lights make sure they are not too close. Put your hand at the top of your plants if the light feels warm on your hand it is too close.

thanks!

I'm trying to keep them around 6.0 6.5, using crappy test strips..top leaves are yellow with green veins. they are shriveling up..Iron deficient?

Thanks for the input!..maybe i need to wait longer between watering?

looking great but back off the nutes a little. Not back off but just water in between feedings. Nutes aren't food they are vitamins to help them produce more food, so keep it just right. And it looks like your light may be too close so maybe back it off a bit. Give us a little description on your grow about EVERYTHING and then we can give opinions. Otherwise they look OK but there may be hidden problems that can be answered with more details on the grow my friend. Good Luck,..:clap:

Your right more descriptions will make it easier to see the problems.

Temps- day 75-80 Night 65-73 humidity generally 35-60(throughout the day)

ventilation is exhausting hot air out, bringing in fresh air from garage.

600w light hps, light is 5-7in from tallest plant.

5 gal pots with happy frog mix, only using tiger bloom every other watering..2 teaspoons per gal (just upped the dosage from 1 teaspoon. watered today*hence the pics today:bigjoint:*)

watering is measured out to 4 cups per plant..truthfully I've never seen run off at the bottom since going to 5gal...up the water dosage? they seem to be doing fine, for 4 cups in 5gal buckets?(Distilled water)

for now that seems the basics just ask for more details. Quick details of equipment if anyone cares.

Looks good so far, but check out this chart, you can also feed Big Bloom and Grow Big if you're using the FF line.
Do you water, water, feed? Or what?

Yes, give more water until you get runoff.
That way, you can be sure the soil towards the bottom is getting wet as well as the top and middle.
Don't worry about 'over watering', that refers to frequency of waterings, not amount each time.

I actually just do. water, nutes, water, nutes....every other etc.

and i'll be sure to give them more water...never really thought about the amount of water vs over watering...hmm learing all the time..next watering is just plain water. See how they look next time. thanks for advice everything helps.
