whats the temp? When temp rises the moisture decreases..simple as that...Keep it cool in there or mist with foliar spray if too hot.like 80 gedrees + and youll be just fine..You wanna keep that moisture at like 50% during vegg.

A white blanket would be better to cover things. The black will absorb light and heat. White will reflect the light and keep heat away more.

Also, as long as only the bottom leaves are looking weird it's not too bad. It's when higher leaves and new growth is messed up that you really need to freak out.

Still, it would be good to try and figure out. I think the ph stuff will help.

thanks guys, that black Bob Marley blanket is comin off lol. i moved that fan 2 and the temp in there staybetween 85 n 90, 90 specialy wen i had that blanket on top so wen that comes off it should stay about 85 87. i dunno if its to dry in there n i been thinkin bout gettin a small humidifier but whats an easier n cheaper way to up the humidity? it jus kinda worries me cuz even tho they are growin nicely a bigger set of leaves is startin to show some of the same syptoms.... hit me bak

A humidifier would be easy, just set it in there and refill when needed. If you are home all day with them and want to spray them with water all the time that would work too.

If you get a humidifier, you will most likely only need it when lights are on.

Either way if you spray or get a humidirfier... if you are using tap water, make sure to let it sit out in an open container for 24 hours for the chlorine to evaporate. I use RO, but have heard that spraying with tap water right out of the faucet can do bad things.

At least the black blanket was a bob blanket. Gave the grow some good luck.

haha bob blanket = good luck thats why i used it. i have been feedin them filtered water from a water jug wit a filter on it from the fridge. usually fill it with new water let it filter n then give it them. i actually gone from home all day wile im at work but i spray them at least twice a day once in the mornin and once at night wen i put water in the soil. they are also on 24h light. ill put up some new pics wen i get home. it seams like they growin, i juss hope the miracle grow soil i used isent gonna be my downfall as i been readin nothin but bad things about it. but my aerogarden will be here today!!! im stil watin on white widow seeds from nirvana that i ordered last tuesday i think.

If you are using a brita or something like that those take out 94-96% of chlorine, so that would be fine to spray or humidify with.

I would try spraying them or a couple days to see if it makes a difference or if it is enough. If not get a humidifier, probably the best since you go lights on 24 hours. Hard to keep up with spraying. And you can spray them like every 20 min or so.

ALso there are tons of haters on miracle grow. It wasn't made for pot, but I've seen people grow real good plants from it. The hardest part is knowing when to start feeding your plants nutrients becuase you don't know when the miracle grow stuff runs out. But I heard it's easy enough to do. You would think miracle grow killed mj plants or something with how people slam it on here. I don't do soil so I can't really help with it, but I know you can grow good herb using miracle grow.

nice work on ordering an aerogarden though. Thats whats up.

thanks bra, i juss got the aerogarden today and i set up 2 sites with some trial run bag seeds juss watin on the wite widow seeds i ordered for it. but i can use any tips with this aerogarden, i read up on the aerogarden threat so i got enough info to start the germination process, lets juss hope this seeds will sprout.

ive been sprayin the plants and they seam to be ok. the new grow looks good even tho it still has those lil brown spots in some leaves. i wish i had a better cam to put up better pictures. Another question i have is, wen im ready to start giving them nuts, how much should i give per plant? im sure it all depends on the type of nuts i juss hope i dont end up givin them to much or to litle...

Too little is ok... you just give more. To much is no good. you have to flush and it can cause permanent damage. Whatever nutes you get they will have something online to help you measure things out.

You just start small and go up.

There's brown spots on the brand new growth? What exactly do the spots look like, dark brown, light brown, on the edges of the leaves only... in the middle?

the brown spots seam to be in the middle of the leaves, their not really on the tips... what could this mean? i still havent done anything to measure my ph. im gonna go to the hydro shop this weekend and get a ph up n down kit for my water and one of those sticks to read the soils ph. Also, what us flushing? n how is it done? im sure it means to flush all the nuts from ur plants but how is that done? thanks for helpin da newbie=)
