There is definitely signs of over watering occurring. It's easiest to judge when to water by using the weight of the pots. When the pot feels light, give them a good watering and allow for runoff. In soil, a pH of 6.3-6.5 is preferable, less in hydro. Some people swear by the drops, but a...

Well, I changed my watering habits, stopped spraying, added 2 small fans in my veg cabinet to keep air circulating and have the stems swaying constantly. I also took the MH fixture out and put it in my old 6x32W 6500k CFL fixture which I used to veg my last grow. I will switch back to MH when...

Thank you. No nutrients have been added and I'll change the watering habits. Is there any hope for these?

After my first grow of 2 NL from nirvana proved to be relatively successful, I have found myself back at square one on my second attempt at growing. I planted 3 AK48 Feminized and 3 NL Feminized. All 6 germinated and sprouted. without fail. 2 weeks later, the growth is not nearly where it should...

Awesome, I figured it should be about a week, but thanks for confirming. Even though both seeds were planted, vegged, and flowered at the same time, throughout their life cycles, it was very apparent they were different phenotypes. Interesting how the same strain can be so different.

Although the second plant is a little further behind, I figure it would be best to ask on how much further along this one should go before chopping. The trichromes are mostly cloudy, but there are still a number of clear from what I can tell and even fewer amber. The pistils are mostly orange...

Chopped her down, and onto drying. Thanks a lot guys!

It's tough to get a good pic of the trichromes. I think some of this might have to do with the increasing temps lately.

This is my first grow, so with all the time and effort I put into this, the last thing I want to do is ruin the harvest. Both plants are Nirvana Northern Lights flowered under 400W HPS, today making 9 weeks and 3 days. One plant looks further along than the other, with most of the pistils being...

Last night I got my pH meter calibrated, watered both plants and collected run off from each. One tested 6.7, the other 6.6. I confirmed with the water color chart as well. After confirming the pH, I added 8ml of grow big, 4ml of big bloom, and 3ml of CalMag to a gallon of my filtered water...

Thanks for all the help. I will test the ph and assuming all is correct I will give it water with cal mag tonight and if not I will correct the ph and water accordingly. Thanks again and I will be sure to update the thread.

I inspected the leaves and there are no bugs visible. The white spots on the leaves is just saw dust that made its way through the passive intake. The grow is located in a wood shop so saw dust in the air is inevitable but I will probably put screening or some type of mesh over the intake holes...

Here are pictures of the new growth.

The plants are still growing at a somewhat steady rate, although the brown spots are getting worse. I haven't yet had the chance to test the ph, as the soil was still somewhat moist up until today but I will check the ph later today. I have noticed that the new growth is showing some small...

I planned on testing the PH anyway, but do I need to wait until the next watering to do so? Judging by the color chart of the ph test kit, my water is around 6.8. If the PH of the runoff is off, should I flush the plants? I have not added any dolomite lime, but I bought calmag which I assume I...
