Much thanks for your reply Mr. G! I snuck in my flowering room just after reading your reply, and I had watered b4 going to bed, and you're right, the buds that I feared were feeling less dense, seemed to have magically bulked up a bit, so maybe I haven't sent them back into veg after all, thank...

Hard to tell, but it was enough for me to sort of see a bit while I was changing out the a/c, I was using a little mini led flashlight. God I hope I didn't screw up, if that's what's happened, I can't afford to wait, I'm gonna have to harvest now. DARN!!!:-(

No, not besides the Super Thrive...

I am a Compassionate Caregiver here in the civilized Medical Marijuana state where I live, and am not exactly a newbie, been doing this a while now, started years ago in the San Fernando Valley of California, but I am experiencing 2 VERY distressing problems that I need some serious help with...

I actually haven't even had the time to get them on any kind of regular feeding schedule. I just brought the clones home 11 days ago, and most appeared in pretty poor shape and didn't have ery impressive root stucture AT ALL I noticed as I was transferring them to 1 gal. pots. fter transferring...

After the first flush, I didn't water at all for 2 days, just light foliar feeding during dark cycle. Then I watered them lightly every other day, lightly being about1 pint of water per plant, with a 1/4 strength solution of nutes. Before going through with flushing again, think I should go ahad...

OK. guys, now I'm REALLY confused! Against my better judgement, I picked one of my babies, and saturated her with water Ph'd at 6.1. Watered her until I got runoff from the drain holes, and tested the runoff. It came out a 6.35Ph and 450PPM. Seems absolutely FINE to me...so what gives? Why...

Am presently running them 18/6 under air cooled 1000W MH's.

I think the burn you're referring to may have been a previous heat burn...as for the purple stems, I'm growing Super Silver Haze, ChemDawg, Sour Kush, Northern lights, and Sour Diesel, and the stems on ALL of them have turned purple...

Here's what sux...I've already completely flushed these plants once, about a week ago, and they haven't gotten any better. Think I really need to flush them again? Everything I've put into them has been Ph'd with a digital meter to 6.3. But how do you do a "soil" Ph test on a medium that is not...

P.S...If it helps any, the stems on almost all the plants are turning purple, and the main stalk is getting hard, thick, and barky at the soil line...

No, 'bro...you're right, I transplanted them in a dry mix, and them watered them with 1/4 strength nute solution. I know I prolly shoulda prepped my medium better, was in a hurry and got lazy... I use ProMix HP, and to that I add 2 parts worm castings, 2 parts additional perlite, and about 1...

Well, it's been days since I first posted my thread, and I have been patiently waiting for my babies to improve, but doesn't seem to be happening yet. Been watering them VERY lightly with 1/4 strength organic Botanicare, but plants are all still drooping, stunted, lifeless, and some of the...

I totally agree with you on the issue of root development, the health of the plant and eventual yield will depend primarily on healthy root development, and the plants ability to absorb and process nutes, but the reason I "double transplant" is mainly for practical purposes and to save on...

Those are some beautiful nugs there 'bro...nice work!

Thanks to all for responding. Well, I got up this morning, and my babies don't appear any better yet, but I am going to continue to resist the urge to try for quick fixes. As far as growing in soil, "the great mitigator", I was under the impression that I am no longer actually growing in "soil"...

P.S....I'm with you on letting them "rest" a few hours a day. I've read lots of opinions on both sides of the 16/8 24hr. veg. light cycles, and science behind the both of them. Just always seemed to have as good or better growth rate going 16/8 as some of my peers who go 24/7. Especially since...

Thanks Mr. MeanGreen. I am working hard to resist the urge to "love them to death"! Just would love to see even a hint of improvement. And, yes, the clones had been abused, which leads me to another question...let's say I can nurse them back to a healthy vegative state, I would like to take a...

Thanks for the encouragement. Guess I'm just sorta bummed 'cause this is my first grow in the kind of room(s) that I always wanted to put together. I have a separate 12' x 14' room set up for mothers and cloning, 2 600W MH and a custom built rack with room for 8 humidomes using 4' shop lights...

Like, I guess a couple more of my biggest questions would be...1. Will they live? 2. How much time anticipated b4 I should see recovery and/or improvement? I'm stressin!
