More pics in bottom URL's.


33 Days old, watered with nutes once two waters ago. Last watering straight water. 12/12 now for 2 days.

Here is a picture of a bottom leaf 8 days ago: http://img170.imageshack.us/img170/5179/problembj6.jpg

My last watering I used e-salts as someone recommended.

My water is good, lighting is good, fans blowing, himidity 50%, and temps ranging 78-84.

Suggestions please?

You need to up the nutes...

Do you have an ec/ppm meter?

Yes, I have a the wand that goes from 100-1800 or so. My tap water doesn't register past 100 ppm.

Did you force flower?

What level of nutes are you currently feeding?

No nutes, forced flower. Grown in Coco, friend says may be overwatering.

Friend is wrong... you need nutes, BAD.

I suggest coming in at around 0.8-1.0 ec, see how they deal with that.


When growing in hydro, and you have a wand, there should be never any need to plain water feed your plants. Nutes, nutes and more nutes...

You want to build a tolerance in the plant, to push it to it's limits. Fannying around with plain feeds does not help the cause.

Ok so 4 days later and the plants looking good. I'll post a update.

I watered and gave about 800ppm of nutes. Seems to be taking it well. No new browning and new growth is very green.

Excellent news...

experiment with your wand and you'll be able to find out just what they can take. This is why seed plants always present problems, with clones you know the plant and what it can take so things are much easier.

Well, here it is. Let me know what you think.

Thanks for the help BTW. You're absolutely right about seeds being more difficult. Once I get mothers I'm going to grow about 10 clones in seperate aeroponic buckets all with different levels of nutes just to see how much it can be fed and what makes it grow best.

Anyways thanks again.
