Thanks for stopping by oldreefer. your knowledge on autos is very welcome here.I am using cfl's because there is lack of space in my home ,i could use some wattage more if the summer wasnt that hot.Anyway i am facing a little problem here.Some of the leaves of the FB have white stains on them after i watered it,possibly from the chlorine of the water.I dont think its mold they are just white stains.I tried to clear them with a wet tissue but they wont go.Do you know how to clear them? I read somewhere that if you spray them with 0% fat milk it will be ok.Is this true?

I HAVE THOSE EXACT SAME STAINS!!! I think it might be a fast bud thing... My plant grew out of it once it hit flower though 0_o.. and I was able to wipe it off with a paper towel. But EXACT same thing.

Do you think you could post some pics of the white stains? That would really help.

Chlorine toxicity would go something like this:

Scorched leaves may be the result of chlorine toxicity. Chlorine is a micronutrient, essential to plant growth. However, too much chlorine can accumulate in leaf tissue, resulting in leaves with a scorched or burned appearance. With scorched leaves have brown or dead tissue on the tips, margins, or between the veins of the leaf. Leaf tissue may appear bleached, instead of scorched. Leaves may be smaller than usual. They may yellow and drop early.

Also, check the underside of the leaf. Is there a discernible difference where the stains are? In other words, are the stains the result of damaged tissue isolated to spots on the leaves, not just surface damage (or something that can be wiped away)?

I was wrong, my plant still has the white stains. I believe they are from the nutrient water drying out ontop of the leaves.

Nevermind about the white stains,they are from water drops and the plant is clearing them by its self. funny thing because it only occures on FB.Anyways i think i have another problem now... as you can see in one of the photos the first set of leaves has this dark brown colour at its edges and it is wilting a bit.I mean not completely wilted but not as alive and happy as the new leaves.Is it their time to die or a ph problem?

Definitely something going on with the ph. Way too early for them to be dying off. Do you check your water ph before you give it to the plants? Do you have a soil ph meter to see what it is inside the soil? Deficiencies can spread pretty fast if you don't grab a handle on what it is pretty quickly.
But the rest of the plants look great!! Im tuned in.

Long time to update so here are some photos.Although i flushed both of my plants they were still wilting but keep flowering,so i think that was normal. The fast bud (pictures 1 and 3) is full of hairs now at about 30% amber. i was wondering how much more i have untill harvest as it seems that it will be done before 60 days. Lowryder still has work to do though ,i think it will be ready at 9th week. What do you think? (sorry about the pictures they cant show the hairs in high detail)
