so Go 2tsp flora nova per gallon. where would the best place to get some cal/mag that your speaking of? how much they run? Is this going to continue getting worse until I feed? Cause im assuming I got at least 3-5 more days till I should water.
if you're not giving them anything the Nova will start on the cal mag issue. I would water tonight if the problem is getting worse daily, even just a bit to give them some food they are telling you they need. Epsom salts are probably the cheapest thing you can by, although many companies make a cal-mag product. Check the local hardware store for some salts. they are getting there seeds stuff in already i noticed this weekend. Or any nursery of course but always support your local hydro store.

So will I still need to buy the cal/mag solution if I havent started flora nova treatment yet? noticing that the flora nova has calcium and magnesium in it. So should I water today or tomorrow even though they are still wet from previous watering?

yes, it has cal and mag in it. it will help. but, it's not enough. you do need cal/mag with gh products.

i'd wait til your scheduled time; they won't die ;)

ok cool. one more quick q, will I need to be feeding the cal/mag with every feed? or can I just get a small amount of it (like a pint or something)? Also how much longer do you think I have till I switch to 12/12?

So from the pics youve seen and how old my plants are (about a month and a week) they would be ready to enter flowering?

ive seen these issues on my own and id say a its lacking nutes easyest and quickest way to fix your issues is get your spray bottle dilute your nute and take a daily multi vitimin and crush it up and mix it in your sprayer and spray all your plants this lets the plant absorb the nute quicker through its pours old growth will take a bit longer to regain its good healthy color but your new groth will be healthy low humidity no biggy 60% and below no so good but your ranges are fine trust me when deficent foliar feeding is the best way to go and as for watering your soil should be moist but not soggy when the top layer of soil is dry they need watering to over water youd have to water them like every day or 2 so i doubt thats your issue and with some of the pics ive seen you might even be under watering them i water mine ever 4 to 5 days as needed you really dont want your pots to be really light and dryed out bad voodoo

could be a# of issues hope this helps..
1..your plants could be under or over watered.
2..as you know it could be ph issues.
3...your plants could be ready for some nutes
4..could be heat issues ..if so place a fan between you lighting and your plant to blow away heat..or just on the plant..
5..your plant may be rootbound..
6..could be disease causing bacteria(not fungi) destroying oxygen..if so all i can say is the cant survive in anaerobic soil..if this is the case the only cure i could find was hydrogen puroxide..it will feed your roots oxygen and they wiil thrive on it.

well i did some research and i really hope this info will be helpfull to you..

It appears to be a nutrient problem... thanks so much for the replies... the top soil gets dry but when I stick my finger down a couple inches its still moist. So i usually wait a week. My plan is to wait till tuesday (a week from when I watered them last) go get either some new water from my g/f's mom and ph it or get some water from the store. at the nutes and then ill most likely go get some cal/mag treatment and add that too... and hopefully after I water them they will perk back up... not be so droopy.. .and not have this random spotting all over the leaves... sound like a solid plan? :(

p.s. thanks soooooo much for the replies, no idea how much I appreciate it.

what do you mean
the problem has been found and discussed. research is great, but experience is greater. i love that you went out and read and found things that might be causing problems (and you did list them...), but listing all those things can prove to be a bad thing. it's not overwatering, it's not lack of circulation, etc. the problems are caused by lack of cal and mag. if you don't know what the issue is, state that you don't know, what you might have found, and sit back and watch. the answer will come. one reason there is so much misinformation is because people spread on what they read instead of what they've learned from their own works.

sorry if i came off like a nag. :blsmoke:

never really though of it like that, but its very true, thats where misinformation comes from. Found a couple different cal/mag plant solutions that you were talking about online. Going to hit up my hydro store tomorrow to see if they have any. So in your professional opinion lol, when should I hit up flowering?
