    8weeks into flower but the bud looks like she is into her 4th week

    Hope you have more than 1 of those lights, otherwise, you're just spinning your wheels. That TS 1000 is only good for a 2ft x 2ft flower footprint, and is only rated at 150 watts. From MarsHydro website, (【High Efficiency Energy Saving Plant Light】Only 150 watts true output with 342 pcs LEDs...

    Fox Farm Ocean Forest

    Uhm no...water is not just water my friend...RO or reverse osmosis, takes all natural chelated minerals out... Removes essential minerals: While RO water purifier removes dissolved impurities it removes natural mineral such as iron, magnesium, calcium and sodium which are essential

    First grow looking for help?

    No, I'm saying that the probes are crap and not accurate, a PH/PPM test pen is much more accurate and only about 10 to 15 bucks for a descent one. I have a pen somewhere around here gathering dust :clap: Actually if you're using Fox Farms soil you shouldn't need it, the soil is made to buffer...

    Actually, since I switched to FFOF I haven't had to PH anything, it buffers the PH for you

    Cotyledon leaves (?)

    I would let it go and see what happens, as far as them being "lanky" get some florescent lighting or CFLs and put them a few inches over the seedlings

    You can use it right out of the bag and it doesn't need anything added, if you add something other than what's in there it may not buffer the PH as well for you

    Need advice

    It may be good for veg, but probably not flower. TBH I use HIDs, but when an LED says it's 600 watts, you can be sure it's probably only a 100 actual watts from the wall...but hey try it and find out

    First grow looking for help?

    What kind of lights do you have? Most LEDs call for 18 to 30 inches above canopy for veg. Check PAR values. Is there moisture/condensation in your tent when the lights come on? Excess moisture at lights on with an LED 3 inches or so away, will burn your babies. And BTW, those soil meters are...

    Seedling leaves are light green

    How are you watering it and how often? Looks like you're over watering it to me. I use the leaves to tell me when to water, they act like a gas gauge, lol, if the bottoms and the middle are drooping, it's almost on "E", time to water. I also use the lift method to feel if the pot is empty. Your...

    Strange Deficiency

    That actually looks like a cal-mag issue I have with a White Widow strain. And by the looks of those pistils you have a few weeks to go. I would give it a small feeding with a good dose of cal-mag. BTW, nutrients if given properly will not affect the way your smoke tastes or how harsh it is...
