Maybe it's early mag def because it's never over 80* in my veg room. The 600 is 22 inches away from the tops.

Neither the Dankberry or the Snow White are showing any signs of yellowing.

its just strange---the leaves are curling at the margin edges but not sign of mag def. Need to look for another problem. I don't see any general yellowing either in the pics.

Transplant into your containers, Feed well with a mild PPM @ 300 transplant tonic(B1--small amounts of NPK and chealeted micros)---I like organic powerthrive withB1 or Lilly miller brand transplant with B1. Then switch to flowering 12/12. They will do great...

Ok heres some pic's.They are now 17 days old.Cups are dry again but havn't watered them yet due to over watering when I added the lime.Been 7 days since last watering on tray 1 6 days on tray 2.tray 2 looks way better than tray 1 but didn't get as much water.
Should I wait longer untill I water? And is this look from over watering??
First couple pic's are the worst off tray one and will prolly be culled and sent to the gallos being our plant count might change.I have to stay at 12 so have some hacking to do.
Last pic is from tray 2 and is the w/c's,,c/c's.I'll pm ya on the breeder of that strain.think ya know him.

You can water more heavely now when the cups feel light--allow 10% of the feeds to run out of the drain hole each time you water or feed. I know the grower your talking about now.

Yes you can do that without a problem.

The curling down is a sign of over-watering--If your not doing a organic grow you could add h202 to get more o2 to the roots but it could kill all your beneficial.

Should I just feed them as normal? I been using a moisture meter when watering but think a couple where still a little moist when I last watered and did water when I added the lime.My next is a feeding and prolly have to do that here shortly being the cups are getting pretty dry again.Also is that just reg hydrogen peroxide like the topical anti-infecttive type and if so how much do I mix into a gallon of water?.
If its not to much of a problem should I just not add it and just cut down on watering? Weathers been so shitty I haven't beable to get to the hydro store for supplys but can pick up that hygrozyme.Or is h2o2 the same thing but not mixed yet.Saw where dirtbag was useing that on top of his nutes and was wondering if its the same thing as h2o2.Just tell me which way ya want me to go and its done.Its not a organic grow so what ever ya think I should do.I have plenty to spare so can do a few and see what happens.Some are headed to the gallos anyways and not all of them are as bad as the 5 in the pic.They're the worst and are extras.

I have a question for ya doc,
I have 9 plants grown in hydroton clay that are 1.5 months old about and they need to be transplanted soon.

They are in the cheap plastic containers that have holes in the bottom for the water to fill and drain out (they are kind of like NET pots minus all the holes except at the bottom). I am going to transplant them into 2 gallon containers and am wondering how you would go about getting them out of the old container.

I was thinking about just cutting out the bottom with a razor blade and slide the plant with the roots into the bigger container but I don't know. I'll probably try doing it with the plants that aren't looking as good first so I don't fuck up the good ones

I can also post a picture if you don't know what I'm talking about

You need to get 35% H202 from your local hydro-shop add 6.5ml/gallon of water and feed. Only add nutes if its time for them.

You should have a root-mass and network of roots sewn into the hydro-ton--Transplant as you would soil---1. fill the 2gal pots a little less than 1/2 way with hydroton. 2. water your current hydropots well with a transplant solution and let sit 5mins. 3. take your hand and cover the top of the hydroton and around the stem and turn over--4. give a light tap on the bottom and the hydroton/rootball will slide out(yes, you will have hydroton pellets fall off-but a majority will stay with the root-ball) place the root-ball into the new pots and while still holding the root-ball fill in with more hydroton--water again with the mild transplant formula and your golden.

Here's some pics

The last picture is of the 2 gallon pot I'm going to transfer it into...
nice--sould work out well...

What does a mild transplant solution consist of? I'm feeding a 620 ppm vegetative solution now and giving them a light bloom solution (400 ppm?) today so I can take cuttings on saturday. Then transplant on Monday I think...

Also is it bad if the leaves are drooping a little bit? I turned the fan off in the room and they came up a little but they're still sagging down some

The only time leaves droop are in there night period and over watering.
