    Plants not looking happy, please help!

    You may want to use distilled water from the store until you get some good nutes. If your PH is above 8, your plants will have a hard time utilizing the nitrogen, phosphorous, iron, etc. in the soil. Once you get your nutrients and add them to the water, it will lower the PH, so that'll be a...

    What is this!!! Why leaves get this ???? (PICTURE)

    Usually when the edges of the leaves turn up like that, it's related to heat issues, or having the light too close to the plants. Can you upload a few more photos, and give more details about your setup.

    Bottom leaves drying up, discolored, short roots

    I'm very glad to hear that the root situation is getting fixed. Sounds like it was definitely an issue of moisture in the root system, they were just getting too dried out and dying. If you decide to go back to a drip, you'd be better off just letting it run constantly. If the yellowing of...

    question about cloning

    The clones won't require much light, so they will probably be fine from the light coming off your HPS and CFLs. I didn't know you were on a 20/4, so that should be fine. The reason you don't want too much light on your clones is because it will generally cause more perspiration through the...

    1 CFL went out, won't be able to buy until next week

    What are your space and stealth constraints? You won't be able to flower the plant with just a few CFLs, and depending on the strain of the cannabis, it'll probably be at least 2-3 ft. I've never started a plant on a 12/12 from seed, but I would imagine that it will make it smaller.

    anyone know how to make water safe for plants?

    RO is the only way to go. I have mine hooked up to a sterilized plastic garbage can so I can store up to 85 gallons of 15 ppm water. I installed a 966 gph pump at the bottom with a 16 ft. tube coming off, so I can fill a 5 gallon jug, or a 20 gallon res within a couple of minutes. Depending on...

    Hhheeeellllpppp!!!!!

    Some pictures will be a huge help, but it sounds mostly like a PH issue. Do you test for PH before watering? Ideally you should just water enough so that the soil can dry out in a 24 to 48 hour period, this will optimize the amount of oxygen that the roots will be able to absorb without...

    question about cloning

    What are you using to clone? The clones definitely won't need much light, but they will do better on a 18/6 than a 12/12 which is what you have your other plants on. Are you taking clones from the flowering plants?

    1 CFL went out, won't be able to buy until next week

    I would imagine it'll be fine, but it's probably less than ideal. How old is your plant. Why are you doing a 12/12 when it can grow healthier and faster on an 18/6?

    First attempt.. Need help sexing.

    Some of those previous photos looked a lot like a dude, but now what looked like male preflowers are starting to look less convincing. Don't kill it yet. Just like you said, what's the rush. Personally, I think it'll be a girl.

    anyone know how to make water safe for plants?

    Thank you DawgMountain for clearing that up. For a second I was starting to think they didn't teach chemistry class in high school anymore. Boiling water will turn H20 into a gas, so any dissolved solids in the pot will remain.

    Plants not looking happy, please help!

    A really simple way to start would be something like General Hydroponics FloraNova Series, every hydro shop will carry it. It's basically two bottles, one for veg and one for bloom. Both bottles contain everything that your plants will need from start to finish. All you need to have with that...

    Bright yellow patches - Help please?

    They look good otherwise. I thought it looked cool because it will keep doing that all the way up that branch, even on the buds. It's nice to have something different every once in a while.

    the leafs are starting to go purple picture inside posted this before got no help

    Unless you're growing a purple strain, then yes, it is most likely caused by the cold night temps. Anytime temps get too cold, it will stress the plant, and it will effect potency. As for manure, I would put down the shit and stop by a hydroponics shop to get some good nutes. Your plants, and...

    Bright yellow patches - Help please?

    I've seen this before on some of my plants. From my experience, it doesn't have anything to do with nutes, I think it's just a genetic issue. Personally I think it looks pretty cool. Any chance you're growing Northern Lights? I think that's when I had the issue.

    Deficiency, Burn, PH???

    It must be the season for them. That's the 4th one I've found in the house this month. But the other ones were tiny compared to this one. I have no idea how they get in, and regular insect spray doesn't even phase them.

    Deficiency, Burn, PH???

    I think I may have found the problem: Actually, I found this little guy right outside the room. It's probably a bigger danger to me than the plants, but I think I'll still kill it.

    help! 1st time grow, sativa hybrid white/diesel(white widow/sour diesel) rusty leaves

    Just like with Doctors, it's always best to get as many opinions as possible. That's just what I'm seeing. Especially if you haven't been flushing throughout the grow, I would guess that it's an overdose of nutes. But again, I could definitely be wrong. Hopefully someone else can jump in and...
