    Feel like pulling my hair!! personal advice?

    Ha! Perfect, how did that go ?:P It'll be fine for sure, if the branches are too bent out of shape though though wont ever fully heal and the problem will just get worse as more foliage comes in. If this starts to happen use bamboo sticks and twisty ties to tie the branches so they are...

    This Noob screwed up! Will they survive?

    Please read the wiki page before telling this kind of stuff to newbs... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_peroxide Just because part of a chemical formula is similar to something you know does not mean it is anything like the thing you know. Ex. N2 (Diatomic Nitrogen) makes up nearly 80%...

    Help lowryder #2 dying! Nute burn/Phosphorous Deficiency

    Also the leaves will likely not recover, I would leave them though. The plant will prune them off itself, and from my experience pruning off leaves during a problem like this only mobilizes the problem.

    Is chlorine killing my plants?

    Tap water doesn't have a high enough concentration of Chlorine to cause this degree of damage. Especially if your allowing it to evaporate for that amount of time. I can't say this with complete confidence though, every area is different. However if your tap water has this much chlorine in it...

    Help lowryder #2 dying! Nute burn/Phosphorous Deficiency

    If your going to use distilled water and have a ph meter let me know. There's a major problem using these things in combination that your probably going to need a buffer on before handling.

    Help lowryder #2 dying! Nute burn/Phosphorous Deficiency

    Depends on the bottled water, you want distilled water not drinking water. You need a TDS meter to check ppm (20 bucks on amazon). Do you test ph with strips or a ph meter? Distilled water will be less than 20 ppm and should be around ph 7.0 which isn't ideal but it will do. How did the ph...

    Soggy Leaves

    Looks to me like your plant is just pruning itself. I usually avoid pruning unless I am trying to direct overall plant growth. The plant will typically take care of itself in the manner and speed it sees fit. I would say its likely that your lower leaves aren't getting enough light and you...

    Help lowryder #2 dying! Nute burn/Phosphorous Deficiency

    lol you had a nutrient deficiency so you flushed, then gave them more nutes less then a week later. Settle down tiger, I'm guessing your new to this. Flushing is a last resort and will likely cause more problems then it will solve. A deficiency is a hell of a lot better then over nuting or...

    This Noob screwed up! Will they survive?

    They'll probably be fine. Add a bit of h2o2 to your res, get a fan blowing on them, and water significantly less. How much were you watering to begin with anyway?

    Hydrogen peroxide and clones?

    From my experience, and I use the exact methods you are proposing, Hydrogen Peroxide does effect rooting. When used in too high of a concentration it appears to slow the process, and often lower your success rate. However so does mold, so maintaining a balance is key. When I first started...

    Spidermites/Thrips treatment

    I've tried just about everything, and I can't wipe them out. Thinking of trying talstar pro, its normally for larger insects, and barns but it has extraordinary reviews so I figure maybe it can take out mites too...

    tearing first true leaves off

    I have to agree with the guy in the third comment. Cutting leaves doesn't do anything but make you feel involved. The plant will take care of leaves it doesn't see fit to keep. Chopping them off only diverts energy to healing.

    Fogponics cloning (any opinions)

    Thinking of giving fogponics a shot, probably going to try cloning before doing it large scale. Anyone ever try it? I'm probably just going to do a very basic fogponics/dwc setup to start of with similar to the a lot of people build basic aero cloners. Storage container, 2 inch hole...

    Strange, indescribable plant growth and leaf yellowing...help?

    Anyone notice that light is orange? Looks like you have a few problems there. I would replace the cfl you have now with 2 5000-6700k cfls twice at far away as the one you have now. First order of biz is always to make sure the pH of your water is on target (6.0-6.5 is best for soil). If...
