Cant tell if they're getting better or worse!!!!.........was pretty damn sure i overwatered two of my big girls just going before flowering (pic with clones in tupperware/big healthy plant in front right).......never really let the bucket dry out on those two before drowning them again right after rearranging and transplanting the clones.........put them back in opposite order (healthy in back/overwatered in front) and switched to flowering thinking they would recover soon.............now it looks like there might be spots on some of the leaves........have no clue what to do next.......any suggestions would help!.............

The medium you have your plants in? It looks like only pebbles. How exactly are your plants in the pebbles?

plants are in foxfarm ocean potting soil in 5 gallon buckets, clones in 3 gall buckets. just spread a layer of hydroton balls on top of soil to promote surface roots. guess that makes them go even longer between waterings.......so i've regretably found out after overwatering.....holds them over for about a couple weeks before they need anything..........that normal?

Never seen hydroton used on top of dirt.I would think that might cause mold.I use hydroton but only in aero, hydro or flood and drain setups.If the hydroton is holding the water it looks like maybe you overwatered them and then in turn over fed as the nutes stay in the water and your double dosing before it can all be used.

maybe if u put the hydroton under the dirt at the bottom u probably would have better drainage and oxygen getting to the roots

sounds like the hydrotone holds too much water. get rid of it and carful with ur ph. looks like it might be low. definetly scratch the hydrotone though.
