you need to ph your feed bigtime,It looks like you have all kinds of deficiencys and burns. flush it out check ph and start feeding at half strength

Wheres a good place to get this stuff?? Or any other ph testers for that matter. I see them at the hydro store but the cheapest one is like $60 soo, kinda hard to bring myself to buy. Or what about a ppm pen?? is ppm just as important

home depot or walmart sell ph test strips...i think your ph is too high...probably in the 8.2 area and it is causing lockout.....you need some ph down and a ph tester...do not use the pool supply ph down...you need the garden variety from a grow store

world wide shipping.. soz am in the uk but try this

http://www.plaza7.com/product_info.php?language=en&products_id=18203&¤cy=USD.... cheap and cheerful should do the job in the short term, whilst you save towards a better more reliable one..

I was told when I completed my first grow to put some of the money we saved from not having to buy dealer weed towards upgrading equipment... somat for you to think about... must be plenty of cheaper alternatives over there.. try ebay, amazon etc...

as much as i like buying things online, plants are growing living things and dont wait for shipping and handling. I am on a budget of course just like everyone else, but i dont mind paying that extra $ to have it now, providing its not a lot more.

if you do buy a digital ph tester...make sure you keep the sensor /probe moist at all times or the sensor goes bad.

Don't mean to be rude mate but the cost of a semi decent PH & EC meter as opposed to a lost crop?

These are the nutes i am using right now, but i havnt used for a while. On thursday i tried feeding with just calcium and mg booster and still things dont seem to be getting any better. I just took a ph test using the strips And the strip that i used in my tap water comes out as 8.5 ph but when i water the plants with just this water and take a reading with the stick out of the run off i get a reading of 5.5. WTF!! is this even possible?
