For future reference if the need may arise...how did you make your solution? Ratio? Water temp?
I'm assuming your referring to the epsom salt spay? When feeding normally I would use a teaspoon per gallon,, but seening ive never sprayed it on my leaves I just used a 1/4 teaspoon in my gallon prayer
IMG_20151204_002525.jpg these plants are like gold so I'm real causcous when trying new tec.

But that 1/4 tsp seems to have satisfied her a bit huh? I've just been very lucky w my grows, I like to accumulate tips so when it finally happens I won't freak out too much
So far it seems to have helped, the new grow doesn't have any yellowing on their edges like the older leaves, it also could of been the 1/4 strength 30. 10. 10. Monster grow I fed her,, or the combo of both,,

When I first started growing( when I was 13) the internet wasnt available,' so it was trial and error for the first few years, when I turned 16 my folks got a computer and internet but even then information was limited,, new growers, young and old, are very fortunate to have an infinite amount of information now,, lucky basterds,lmao

Yeah I was saying the other day, I live in an unpopulated, isolated rural area. I have no growers around or grow shops to frequent. I somehow managed to grow some of the best pot I've ever smoked w a T5 first try, and my second grow is going better than I could have hoped...thanks google, riu, YouTube, etc. I also was a biochem major in college so I have some understanding of how plants work. But yes I agree the learning curve doesn't even exist anymore, and it's all thanks to you ground breakers who made it more accessible and realistic for us lucky newbs

Thanks,,lol,, your doing a fantastic job,,
I started growing indoors about 12 years ago with no clue what I was doin,, up till I only grew outdoors. After being ripped off one year I decided to grow indoors through the winter months so that I could enjoy some smoke,, my first attempt sucked but I managed to get about ahalf oz. I used incandescent lights,, the second round before spring I up graded to two four foot t8's and a 300 watt quartz metal halide, that time I got about the same,, I couldnt afford H.I.D. lights at the time so I made do with what I had,, ever since then ive always grown indoors through the winter, I learned a lot through that time, like how to kill fucking spider mites,,lol,,

I think my geography is perfect too...the winters are very cold and dry, so there aren't any bugs getting into the room or whatever. Basically if your room is pest free about beginning of October, it will be that way until May-ish. Also, our summers are pretty dang hot, Lower 90s being typical, but very low humidity. I mean LOW. My first harvest this past August, my buds were already dried out and crispy after three days...I wonder how many other people have had to buy a humidifier to dry and cure their buds haha
