yeah idk i havent fed it any nutes yet and i dont believe there is really anything in the soil its organic i have a duel tester for ph and fertility the ph is at like 6.7-6.9 and it says the npk levels are perfect so i was just guessing once it drops down to too little is when id start feeding it..

see i dont wanna overwater it so i just keep the soil moist not wet the top drys in maby 2 daysbut i dont know if thats cause the fan is blowing right over it making it evaporite quicker...

hey skunk i think u should have waitied till the plant was older to start low stress training that plant, u could have strartled the delicate root system as it is still young, and if u have proper ventilation its not likely that ur plants got burned being that ur cfls are 3 inches or more away, esp on the y splitters, i put my babies an inch or a lil less that that to em and they dont get burned, what soil r u using again bro?it does look like a defiency of some sort, if u let know know the soil and nutrients if any it be easier to diagnose, thnk man,,

u should also make sure to check the ph of the soil make sure its around 6.1-6.8 for soil grows, could be causing a nutrient lockout

Flushing should also be done as part of a schedule it helps to control the levels of unused nutrient contained within the medium. But I am glad a good flush helped her out.
