Roseman, do you mind listing the nutes you use supplements and all. I want to be on the same page as you guys.
i use the pre-packaged SH nutes, and a little Liquid Karma the last three weeks..and that is all I sue.

Roseman, why do you use LK for the last 3 weeks of your grow? Do you flush? do you use it 3 weeks before the flush? Im trying to follow your grows and have about 3 weeks left till harvest and was wondering what this does for your grow the last few weeks of flowering. Thanks

I got to tell you, I just do somethings different than what the books say to do.
For example, when I go to 12/12, I still use VEG nutes for the first week, and it would take a big book to tell you why, but I am positive it is the best thing to do.
When I get down to 3 weeks left, I torture my plants, I abuse them, I over feed them, and I almost kill them because they are about to die, anyway, and I over feed them, I put them back on VEG nutes, and I add supplements or a catalyst then, and Liquid Karma works best for me.

Liquid Karma screws up the water, the pH, and is a sticky mess for the pump to deal with, so I save it til the end.

I started with 100% Distilled the first 2 weeks, I'm using half distilled half tap now. Fox Farm nutes. I think I was over supplementing cal-mag and got locked up. I have what looks like to me PH fluctuation burns all over the fan leaves.
Using H2O2 with Fox Farm organics IS your problem. You cant use that shit with organic ferts.

Hi all!
I have 12 clones that are 16 days old. They actually look great, but they have absolutely NO ROOTS. I mean none, not even a nubbin of a root trying to grow. There are new leaves growing on all of them, they are growing in every way except roots. Any idea how this is possible???

Are you using nuted water or just plain unleaded? How'd you do the cloning? Any idea onthe strain?
No nutes yet
Took the cuttings from bottom or low-middle of 4 of my plants just before they went into 12/12 (3 from each). 45 degree angle, in water, scraped the bottom with my nail, then dipped in cloning gel. Cut rockwool in half and put the cutting in that. Put them into the hydroton covered the netcups and butted the water tubes next to the rockwool with a slight trickle. Very little light. (1 cfl with a diffuser to block most of it)
Carmelicious is the strain

I did this 5 or 6 weeks ago, and all 6 of them had roots out the bottom of the net pots in 10 days. They are doing fantastic.

Then I have no explanation as to why the are growing new leaf with no roots. I'd think they would have to yellow the lower leaves to transfer that energy to the top tip growth. Are you a magician? Maybe these root are just shy! LOL!

Thanks anyway!

My PH rose to 7.0 again from 5.7 yesterday morning, and the leaf tips are downturned again as well as morerust spots. This is getting very irritating. Should I go ahead and drain, flush again, then fill the res with 5.5 plain distilled water and let it run for a few hours, or do I need to go get Flora Klean? There is white foam at the surface of the water, could that be left over H2O2 that's fucking with me?
Dude, are you usiing organic nutes? If so, you're probably killing your organics with your H2O2 and THAT could mess with your ph.

You shouldn't use H2O2 with organics...fuck, I sould have clarified that when I was talking about it earlier :wall:
