    Electrical question

    Can anybody answer this question?

    will splitting up the nutrient mix affect the ppm ratio? for example let's say I have 10 young plants (in soil) and I want to give them 800 ppm. So I'll make a gallon of nutrient mix with 800 ppm and give that to all ten plants. But since these plants are in small pots, they can only take about...

    How can you really know what's wrong with your plant?

    It seems like most info you get is vague and convoluted, so how the hell can you really determine what's wrong and how to treat a problem? For instance, my plant is in the 4th wk of flowering and most of the fan leaves are yellow or turning yellow. I've heard this could be lack of N or too...

    Need some help. Is it time to harvest yet? (pics)

    Yes many mistakes were made lol I think nute levels and high heat were the problems but you live and learn. I really wasn't expecting my first hydro grow to be great. I appreciate the advice man thx.

    Need some help. Is it time to harvest yet? (pics)

    They've been flowering for 3 months now and I'm still not sure if they're ready. The microscope I have sucks and it's too hard to tell what color the trich's are. Maybe some experienced growers could let me know.

    First Hydro Grow, Need a little help (quality pics)

    There is a little bit of new growth affected on one of the plants tho. But it isn't the same discoloration, it's more of a white color. Not sure what that is. I can upload a pic of that later tho.

    First Hydro Grow, Need a little help (quality pics)

    I PH to 5.8 everyday since the last feeding as well as half nute strength. It just looks like they're getting worse. I still haven't tried the cal/mag yet. That is def going to be the next step. Any other suggestions?

    First Hydro Grow, Need a little help (quality pics)

    thx for the responses guys. as far as nutes go, I've only given them micro, grow and bloom nothing else. i use an EC meter with a 700 conv factor, it usually reads 1.0-1.3. in ppm's that should be 700-900. I'll def start PHing to 5.8 tho, maybe that will help too.

    Hello experts, novices & total newbs! I am a total newb & I need some help identifying this problem, I think it could be a Mg deficiency but I'm not sure. This is my first bundle of bagseed joy and most likely the only soil grow, I'm switching to hydro after this. Here's some details about the...
