I do not have a ph tester working on that pulled out the old hannah checker and it was all over the place
i dont have alot of money atm. Here is what i am dealing with
White spots on 2 of leafs dark purple stems and red and another problem on another with small spots
I know my setup looks bad its temporary till i can build my ebb and flow i have it all bought trying to figure out the problem till i can get all setup and get a ph checker

I put a heater in tonight as the night temps have been dropping to around 40ish i know i should of had it in sooner i know cold weather can cause this but what about the leafs? tops are extremely dark green compared to lower leafs
i was using all seasons 20-20-20 which i had laying around im sure that is a huge mistake also
especially since the medium has nutes already i repotted the back ones 2 days ago thinking it may have been root bound they kind of druped the first night then popped back up the next
im thinking i should flush and let the nutes in the soil do its job these are my mothers from seed i plan keeping them in soil and just growing the cuttings in hydro

i also spotted some small amounts of powdery mildew on the biggest plant with the white spots i sprayed with neem hoping it combats it i have green cure also but dont know if i should use it

plants are t4 supose to be trainwreck + pineapple kush (solo cups) biggest plant with most problems is one givin to me dont know name just know its from michigan and medical and the other in a big pot is bag seed i found 3 seeds from a oz i had

They look pretty good over all. A little fine powdered dolomite lime will take care of the cal mag issue. put a couple of tblspoons of dolomite lime on the top and work it into the soil with your fingers. You need to get some better fertilizer too. The purple stems might be a phosphorus issue, or it could be from the cold temps. If you want some decent fertilizers for a good price go to amazon and get some CalMag too. Good Luck
 
Oh yeah I forgot the lime doesn't work immediately so you can also use Epsom salts dissolved in water to fix the problem. 1 to 2 tablespoons of Epsom salt to one gallon of water.

The salt should be used on the smaller one with the small brownish rustish spots right ?
 
Get ph drops (liquid) they are cheap and work well...as long as your not colour blind lol.now pm is avery bad thing it is systemic it will give everything else pm too..i burn sulfur between grows.you can't burn sulfur when plants are flowering only in veg even then i think it affect's the overall taste in the end product...

Thanks for the info i was looking into the drops my self just didnt know how accurate they would be i seen some for around 9$ and the pm i found on one leaf and it was very little ive read about the sulfur and dont really want to go that route my self this is my first time starting indoors and dont want to get crazy
 
They are very acurate and no calibration which is why pens don't work most of the time,stoner's tend to forget sometimes...lol
 
yeah my hannah checker i went to use it and it would go all the way upto 9 then down to 2 then back up would never stop lol i think i may just stick with drops when i get them so i dont have to calibrate and all that crap i just been taking distilled water and addng the fert to the galon by what it says for tomatoes

Your poisoning them with 20-20-20 (I see you stopped using it) And the ones in solo cups look like they are in mud...way too much water
 
Thanks the last couple of days i just been watering with plain distilled water hoping it will flush it out and gonna go back to using this granulated 9-3-4 natural and organic i was using in my outdoor grow last year till a guy i know who has more experience then me told me to start using that grow more all seasons 20-20-20

Its too much..and all that water will only compound your problems

I would put them in some fresh soil and chill on the water
 
transplanted the solo cups like you said noticed slight yellowing of the roots root rott?

Cold temps can cause phosphorous deficiency but I think your problems stem from using that fertilizer while in miracle grow soil...I'm partial to FFOF but it is expensive. They should do better now
