i have home box 4x4x7.. 400w mh, with a dimpled reflector.. and and tempered glass shield.

im using 2 gallon and 3 gallon pots, with happy frog, very dense but rich top of the line soil... most have some hydroton balls onthe bottom for better drainage. and that might be why i am experiencing a ph spike as i didnt presoak them in ph nute solution.. i will make a thread describing whats been going on..


E-indoor
E-soil,
E-specific medium, 3 gallon pots
CSL-happpyfrog
SC- some perlite and hydroton balls on the bottom
SCLR-Soil or slab runoff pH will get a better read in about 2-3 days maybe 4 im going into a dry cycle right now to let them well, dry out. but the 3-4 days ago it about 7.8 and now its about 7.3-7.. i had finally bought a ph pen, oakton, and i have very soft tap water ive been using and its been about 7.5-8ph so everything i feel is looking as is... but since i found out i gave a good dosing of some 6.5 ph water. some are in shock and my die but others have a great chance. the roots are looking good. aroudn the holes.
E-Water source tap water
E-Source water pH 7.5-8
E-3-5 weeks
E- pure blend pro bontanicare 2-1-3
E-once at half dose after flus
E- 78-81 day, and low 70 at night. 400 w mh, at 18-24 inches checked daily.

E-Air % Relative humidity 35-45%
E-Lighting schedule 18/6
E-occilating fan, and fan sucking air out.
TR-Did you pre-soak your media in pH corrected solution? no





i have some female seed a friend gave me, but i dont know strain name, but i also have some hawaiix skunk and some nlxhaze. well start with the females... these are the worst looking but im hoping for them to explode in the next week or so if all is getting better.


its got major claw action, and red stems, its been topped, and the new green growth is slow but there are a lot places growth is coming from so i figure thats party why..

What I would do is figure out where I am at then how to get to where I want to be.

You are not going to know with Tap water. Either get an R/O or buy clean water, there is so much shit in tap water I bet its about 300ppm right out of the tap. You dont have a clue whats in it.

After adding my nutes I would ph to 6.0 and know what I am feeding my plants and how much. Then I would be able to tell whats wrong and make changes.

As it is you dont know what your feeding them. Its a shame to see you go to all this trouble and not get the most out of it.
 
heres an update with pics. one with kinda waxy leaves, nl X haze... then the 2 females, that in pics from above had 4 fan leafs, i trimmed them off to allow the undergrowth good light, its proly been 1-2 weeks since last photo shoot. i will get more... everything looks alright but growth is slow and theres blotches and minor burns on the leaves. the 400w MH is about 20-28inches away. i trimed all

I have the same problem with some of my plants, they get those little light brown spots. I havent been able to get answers either so ill be watchin yur thread and hopefully get some answers too :-(
 
heres some more... but notice in the pics above, none of the leaves have gotten as big as the ones i cut i off. but the ones i cut off were ugly, as they had some shock from high ph------>Ph down.

the rest look okay but growth seems slow, i did just top a few and trim from the bottoms to make the clones.
