Check on google which does what. But baking soda either raises or lowers PH. Vinegar does the reverse. Just don't use both together or you'll have a middle school science project in your dirt. When you do get your cash, invest in PH up and down. It's cheap, convenient, and you'll only have to...

I've only heard of deficiencies causing leaf twisting. They look otherwise healthy, though. Check the deficiencies page on here. Might be a micro nute or something that you're lacking. In which case, it would probably be an easy fix by just adding a little something extra to your fish emulsion...

Lack of airflow did something similar to me one time. If you aren't over watering (also makes plants droopy), poor air circulation can do what you're seeing. They won't last long if you don't fix the problem fast. I know from personal experience. It looks like you're using CFL's, so I doubt...

So, I'll just give you my situation and if you can help, it will be greatly appreciated. I live in a humid area. Spring, Summer, and some of fall are gooey. I can keep the indoor (where I'm growing) around 60-70% and temp around 79-83f during the hot seasons and 70+ in the winter. I have some...

My buddy swears by it. Never used it personally. But, I'll vouch for his results.

"Just Natural" brand soil from Lowe's. Ingredients say peat, rice husk, etc. Says limestone for PH control, too. My buddy uses it and gets great results. Which is what lead me to the PH imbalance suspicion. Everything we do is the same except he has different city water and he has an HPS bulb...

Well, haven't had any new leads. So, I treated my water with PH Down, bringing to just a hair under 6. I watered the plant thoroughly and now I'll wait. If anyone has any other info, let me know. Even guesses or gut feelings might help at this point. =) Thanks to you two guys for your help.

I tested my tap water. It sits at a PH of 7 with or without my fert.

As I look up how to raise PH (Ironically, I own PH down), is there anything else it could be? Just trying to be sure before I add a new variable.

The picture on the right is before I clipped the bottom leaves but it shows the paleness and some spotting like I was describing.

Ok, so, I have a 3 gal. pot with organic soil and a good amount of perlite mixed in. I have a 26w CFL (6500k, 1200 lumens) and a 13w CFL (2700k, probably 600 lumens) hanging 2-3 inches over the plant. I don't have the temperature control for HPS yet. The plant is about 2 1/2 weeks old and 3...

As long as there are sulfates in the MG, should that lower the PH a little bit, too? I'm between using more MG and buying sulfer to lower the PH.

I've seen that before. I guess it looks like a sulfur issue along with some other things. Main concern is the bendy leaves and bad color. If anyone sees this who has had and remedied this problem, please let me know. Thanks to all you other guys! Good to know I'm not the only one looking at...

Better pic's hopefully. Even if the lighting is off to the point that you can't tell the exact color, you can tell there is discoloration. Dark green outer leaf with light green inner leaf. I understand the new growth being light colored. But, that drastic of a difference on ONE leaf? And see...

I think it is newer growth but the contorted leaves are definitely not normal. I'm pretty sure it's a nut' def' but I can't find a good remedy. "Use this to make your plant better" but no amount to use or "1/4 tsp per gallon of water per gallon of dirt" type ratios. Let me see if I can fix the...

Hey, I looked around here and other sites for a good two weeks before posting and there are way too many possibilities for my untrained eyes. Here's some pics. Leaves are yellowing from the stem out as opposed to the tip and new leaves are also contorted and at odd angles. Stems were turning...
