Some better pics (I hope)

After searching and searching all the pictures I can find, I have narrowed it down to about 5 strains. I got the seeds from a friend who got it from a friend who got it from a friend...etc. and no one in that list can tell me for certain what it is. I am in the North Eastern US and have to...

Nice pics :-) Yesterday I didn't have to drop the ph as much as I had been. Maybe 1.5 ml (vs. 3ml every day prior). I just checked it today and it has barely moved. I am thinking it may have been residual Miraclegro in the Rockwool. I will check it again tomorrow and then Sunday I am due...

Was just saying same thing to myself. Gotta get the digital. They aren't to expensive if you consider the life span and wasted chemicals. Planned on cleaning res on Sunday so I will go back to tap with a digital then. P.S. Yes, with bleach, then soap and water, then thorough rinse with...

sounds good:)

This batch is distilled water starting at 6.8. I had the same from tap water but as another troubleshooting attempt decided to try the distilled. I lower it to around 5.2 and the next afternoon it is back around 6.8. I wonder if the layer of clay pebbles raises ph like rockwool does?

I was just reading up on that canna coco. Do you flower in the same room as you veged or do you transplant?

Yeah, what I don't like abut this bottle is it doesn't tell you how much to add to lower a certain amount. Like on a pool it says something like "For 20k gallons add 1 lb to lower .2" or whatever.

just says "Acid" (for lowering ph in nutrients) by GH As for what strain it is...sadly quality seeds aren't easy to come by in my location and every dealer you buy from calls it "Chronic" or "Purple Haze". They don't care just as long as they make the sale and it gets you high. After my first...

ummm.....I have no clue. Whatever acid comes in the "ph down" bottle from the hydro store? I will run down and see if it says anything on the bottle.

Oh...ph...I have to add 3 ml into 5 gallons everyday on average. Is that common?

Thanks again! :) Was hesitant to sign-up to a forum such as this but I am glad I did :-D

much thanks! I will cut the light back to 18, by an hour a day. I had turned them on so long as a troubleshooting attempt. That miraclegro was my problem from the beginning, and I was using a very weak mix. About a week after I flushed that out and used real nutes with the right mix, they...

Thanks wonderbread :-) I finally was able to get some pics on this comp so I will try to post them now. Any comments or suggestions on my other concerns about ph, how often to water and duration or nute mix? :-)

I am new to growing. I needed a new hobby and always wanted to give growing a shot so after much research (ongoing also) I deciding I was ready to set up a room in my house. I have encountered and seemingly overcome many newbie errors so far but a new problem has me stumped. I could also use...
