Sorry about the crappy pictures. Ill try to get better ones next time.

Those look very nice and healthy man. Looks like it's gonna be a good smoke!

Alright, hope stuff starts to settle down a little bit now lol. Did the 8 step recovery, w/ a little extra Hydrogen Peroxide for 15min to kill the larvae. Pulled off all the roots that were hanging down from the pots on the rotting plants. Filled it all back up w/ 5.84 pH'ed water w/ exactly 250 ppm all together in the water w/ nutes. Added a saucer of vinegar to trap those damn gnats.

Is it just me, or do the first couple plants I posted pics of look awful. Parts of the leaves are black now. I'm hoping for their recovery.

Do you know what could have caused my pH to go all the way up to 7.4 again? It was 5.9 when I put the water in about 3 nights ago. Seems like a huge change in a short period, could it have been the rotting roots that did it?

Also what would you recommend to prevent the root rot in the future?

Is it OK, or even a good idea, to use Hydrogen Peroxide on a regular basis, i read it is good for the roots. If so, how much?

Thanks for the advice, I hope these babies can get a nice calm growing period, they've been going thru hell for the past week heh.

Hi all! I got my PPM and Ph meters in, and to be honest, not sure what the ppm is supposed to be (gonna have to research it - only 2 plants)! Any suggestions?

Anyway here are the girls, looking better all the time.

Candy is 51 days from seed
Debbie is 40 days from seed

SLOWWWW GROWWWW!

I have a mag def or nute burn goin on here lookin for some advice. the plants are only 2 weeks from seed and I just added nutes the last couple of days. my tap water is 150ppm and my solution is 350ppm when I first added nutes it was only at 250 and after 2days I bumped it up to 350. my ph is usally at 5.5 to 5.9 and never gets higher than 6.2. my res temps are usually 68-70 but when I go to work all day they get up to 77. the problems occured before I added any nutes. the plants are still growing pretty well except for the one slacker that has some wrinkling going on. also there under a 400hps right now that about 15-18in above the tops. thanks for all input in advance. oh yeah how do I get rid of the red in my pics from the hps?

Looks like wind burn, move the fan back some. I had some look just like that untill I moved the fan back some. The ones that got burned stay that way but new growth is looking fine.
I have my 2 week 4 day old girls on 650ppm, going to 900 tomorrow.

Are your buds tight from your cfl grows? My Big Bud is pretty fluffy and my WW is okay, but not tight. I have chopped some of the ww and I do like the sample, even uncured it's nice, but I think another week for the rest..then curing....I need more patience.

DO NOT havest until the plants look like there DYING. Like 50% of leaves are mostly dead. IMHO

I'm leaning towards the gnats and the larvae eating my roots and causing the discolored roots, but I am not sure. I have Hygrozyme on the way, what I take from it is that the Hygrozyme turns the dead roots into edible material for the plants to eat. The hygrozyme will be here on Thursday, if I add that to the tank will that solve the root problems? Or should I really follow the 8 step remedy again just only 2 days later? Thanks

So these are my babies. I am worried about them. The first two pictures are two of my largest plants so far, and the most badly infected.

Wait ubtil the hygrozyme comes in and flush and refill normally and add the hygroyme. It will cure all root issues with no problem, I had the same issue and h2o2 woked a little bit but it couldn'r kill off the root slime. You'll see new roots within a day or 2.

you know that crossed my mind too actually. you see I went back to work like two days after they sprouted. in which the first day they all stretched real bad on me and actually fell over. so I lowered my light some and got the fan going, the very next day they all stood up on there own and began to get thicker stems and all had four leaves so I added like a 100ppm of nutes. then when I came home from work like 16hrs later they all bushed right out and grew too close to the light and directly into the path of the fan. so I didnt know if it was light burn, wind burn or the small dose of nutes, I readjusted my light and fan and flushed for 3 days which perked them right up and growth never slowed at all, but now I still seem to be getting what looks like a mag def. it is on the first 3 sets of fan leaves and not on any new growth or branches that have started. the yellow spots start in the center of the leaves and work its way out and they curl upat the tips. last night I bumped up the nutes to 400-450ppm and they seem to respond well and as of right now none of the new growth has the problem so Ill let it go and see what happens before I go crazy with the epsom salt or do anything stupid. the system works great but my work schedule is killing me cause the growth is so rapid. I ordered an iceprobe chiller by coolworks that should be here this week so atleast my res temps will stay consistent while Im gone. thanks to everyone here for the help and knowledge.

I tried to buy from "Nirvana" from the recommendation at the top of the page on this site, but it said I could not check out because I didn't have any available payment methods. Yet there's nothing on their site to set up a payment method. aarrgghh.

So does anybody have any other RELIABLE sites they could recommend to me??

Thanks much,
db

I got mine from attitude the world of seeds collection. I ordered with the shirt and it took about 6 working days, but it was very discreet! Good luck!!
