Thanks, I am glad to be helpful!
You plants look good! Congrats on your females!
Remember not to water until the container is light and dry through. You can trim some of those shriveled up leaves and brow tips... Do you have a fan in there?

Forums in general or this one specifically? If you have a question, try and find a forum that best fits your question by topic (newbie, indoor, outdoor, plant problem) and ask away... Or you can start a thread of your own with your growing specifications and ask for specific advice... people are very willing to help if you are willing to ask.

The clone is the same age as the original and yes is gonna want the same feeding but you want to wait till it has hardened off and shows vigor (new growth)

Yes, i do have a box fan up high blowing away from them...just circulating the air..
Is it ok, to remove some of the big older fan leaves to exposed the new growth?

Thanks riddleme...I was thinking that would be the case. I gave them a very mild dose of nutes as they were showing some good progress and putting out new leaves. They seem to be happy enough with it so far - I'm trying to keep em green! -Mandi

In my Balls to the wall thread, there are a couple of harvest, on the second one, I took 3 plants all the same strain (from clone) all the same size on one I removed all the fan leaves and one I removed some of the fan leaves and one I left alone, the results are documented with pics, the one that I did not remove any leaves from had the biggest cola and the highest yield. I have been tellin folks to never remove leaves and did this to prove that removing leaves reduces yield

I just send them from my phone to my e-mail and save them... Probably not the best idea to use photo bucket for pictures like that.
hey capt! i just wanted to post an update..after taking your advice here are the plants i was worried about..
this one is growing all funky but i really think its the seed and nothing i've done
the yellow spot on this one is where I accidentally burned it, i failed to adjust the light after increasing wattage

she's doing ok. i think there is still a long way to go. i posted a few pix today, she's filling out a bit but I had to transplant so I think that set us back some time. hopefully she gets back on track

You really shouldn't be telling newbs not to test ph! That is VERY important. Also, distilled water has a ph of 7.0 ( neutral). Many plant problems that appear to nute burn or deficiency are really caused by incorrect ph locking out nutes. I thought most of your post was great for newbs, but giving wrong info will only make it more confusing.

Not to get in between this argument or anything, but shouldn't you let the people (newbs) who are reading this know that you have yet to get to your first harvest?
When I give advice to newer newbs than myself, I am always sure to let them know I am a Newb myself.
Seems to me you are trying to come off as someone with vast experience, when, in fact, you have yet to harvest your first grow! JMO.
