Cool, thanks a lot for replying.

I just started my plants on 12/12 Wednesday. So this will be the third day on that cycle. The lights go off at 8:30 am and come on at 8:30 pm. This morning the lights were accidentally turned on at 9:00 am, 30 min. after they usually go off. They were on for about 1-2 minutes max and I shut them...

I don't believe its my clay pebbles that are causing the rise in PH. I poured 5.6 water over the top and it came out the same. Im using an ebb n grow multi bucket setup it. When the water drains back into the reservoir it leaves about 1.5" of water sitting in the bottom of the bucket. The water...

That's the thing. The PH wont stay in range. It keeps going way up after each water. So....I think there must be a nutrient lock out. This is the second time I have done a flush. Last week I flushed for 2 days and added nutrients back in. I don't understand why my PH won't...

I have 24 clones that range from 9" - 12" tall. They are growing in hydroton in a ebb n grow system and are being watered every 6 hours. The clones were cut from the mother plant Dec 20 and took about a week to root. I have been vegging them for about 16 days now. My question is how high should...

Any advice :confused: I need some help here

Sorry if I went a little crazy with the pictures. I just wanted to make sure you get a good idea of what is going on.

Here are some more pics.

I have had my clones in veg for about 2 weeks. The time I got them they were all between 4"-6" tall and now they are all between 9"-12" tall. This is my first grow but it seems that they are growing a little on the slow side. Does that seem too slow or is it a normal growth rate? In the...

I am going to break them apart and put them in hydroton. Is that a bad idea? I just need to know what to do to fix them if I can.

I am using around 160 watts of flouro light and no nutes yet. The reason I used a lower ph was because rockwool is more on the alkaline side. When I first bought the cubes I soaked them in 6.9 PH which ended up being to high because a few days after they were put in the cubes I squeezed some...

I was watering my plants with 6.9 PH water and they starting having ph problems. So I soaked the rockwool cubes in 5.5 ph water overnight to bring the ph down. They did good for a few days then after I watered them with 5.6 ph water a few of them started drooping the next day. Im not sure whats...

Well, can anyone else advise me if I can transplant them into straight hydroton or not??

I just planted several seeds a few days ago in some coco and most have sprouted up through the surface. My question is.....can I transplant them into oasis cubes or rockwool cubes and put them into grow rocks. I prefer the oasis cubes since the ph is neutral. The reason I didn't sprout them in...

How long should I use the flouro's before I switch over to the MH/HPS setup. Also how many watts from the flouro's should I be using on the seedlings.
