Hi. Not too sure about this. Plant is SLH 3/4 weeks flowering under 600w HPS, soil grow. Leaves on top of plant are starting to "claw". I've read up on this and believe it is caused by too much nitrogen, so i've flushed it and wont add nutes for another week or 2. However, bottom of plant...

Well i re-filled with shop-bought water and raised EC to 2.2, i'm still having problems. Some of the other lower leaves are starting to show the same. I'm going to leave some tap water out for a week a re-fill Can anyone tell me what is wrong? What nutes are missing, so at least i can try some...

I'm going to buy some plain bottled water this morning. Plants have been in a flushing solution for 36hrs. Going to raise EC to 2 and see what happens. I'm struggling to find distilled water anywhere, only place i can get it sells it in 500ml containers, i need 20L!!

Hi all. This is my first time hydroponic grow. Using a homemade aeroponic setup. been vegging for 3 weeks, just switched to Flowering cycle. Flushed system at 10 days, currently flushing now. Northern Lights Vegged under 400w MH Flowering under 600w HPS Good Ventilation EC - 1.8 - 2...

Hi I'm finishing my first grow, i have two breeds, white widow and an unknown bagseed. These plants are lucky to have survived. I've really struggled with spider mites and way-too-hot grow room temps. both soil, under 600w hps, good conditions now. Watering WW with rainwater for last 2 weeks...

low humidity and high temps. I did have a lot of issues with temperatures getting far too high. I've sorted it out now, and rarely do the temps exceed 31oC, humidity is pretty low, about 30-40%

Thanks, Definitely not overwatered. I've run it pretty dry a couple of times, to the point that the leaves are all drooping badly. Once watered, they stop drooping, but the roll still remains. I'll try not fertilizing for a couple of weeks and see what happens. The plants are generally quite ok...

Hi, This is an unknown strain. It's under 600w HPS, grow room temps 25-30oC I treat these two plants exactly the same as my other two (white widow) which are happy. The leaves have been like this for a good few weeks. I've tried more nutes, and less nutes. I've watered them loads, and i've let...

Hi. Got some pretty unhappy plants at the mo. They are 7 weeks flowering, White Widow. Had a problem with spider mites, but under control now. Was also struggling with grow-room temps. I was hitting 35-36 oC (96oF) at times. Again, this should be sorted. I've insulated the room from the heat...

For 2 plants, i'd go for either 1x 250w or 2x 125w. For Vegging use a 6500K bulb (blue light / daylight) on 18hrs, then switch to a 2500k bulb for flowering (yellow/orange light) for 12/12. Personally, i veg with CFL, then switch to HPS for flowering. A 250w hps is far superior to 250w CFL...

Hi all. I've got 2 white widow have been flowering for 6 weeks now. hairs are half white/brown. Plants getting quite yellow in places. I've read that should happen at the end of flowering, and NOT to try correct with more Nitrogen. Should i be upping my nutes? or is 6 weeks kinda normal...

Week 10 - 6 weeks flower Had quite a problem with Spider mites and temperatures. Spider mites are getting better, still spraying every few days. Main problem is high temp, and low humidity, ideal for spider mites, not ideal for plants :cry: Currently the grow room is in uninsulated attic...

Ok, so i've been experimenting this week. I was happy with the low pressure aeroponics system that i just built, it works fine, but i'm now experimenting further. I had a little fogger arrive in the post last week, so i've swapped the sprayers for a fogger. The system is now a hybrid...

Yes, i agree. I too am thinking that. This system, and most of the other systems i've seen should really be called "Splatter-ponics", a low pressure pump will struggle to give a good spray let alone a mist. The droplet size from a cheap low pressure pump (the maxi-jet 500 provides about 10psi)...

Monitoring from my iphone. Please don't suggest things like that! I won't be able to sleep until i've worked out how to do it!! haha Yes i agree, the relay ON for the longer period is a bit silly. However, just today i got a delivery of a little fogger, and i've already made some changes. I'll...
