So I take it by that response you dont have a pH or EC meter? If not id invest in one.

Most nutrient manufacturers want you feeding insane amounts leading to toxicities.

I did find EC meter and some pH strips among the boxes I received. I've read about the EC meter having to be calibrated or something? I should of invested in this a long time ago If these don't work then I that will be my next purchase.

I am using Advance Nutrients Sensi Grow part a+b. I was also given Aqua Flora A+B and a bunch of other stuff. I need to order the bloom nutes I believe. Any suggestions on which nutes I should order? Should I stick with Sensi or Aqua Flora? Any success with either or nutes? I know next to zero on these brands.
To me the roots seem fine but I could easily be wrong. Ill be posting pics of the roots and and couple other things I just notice on one of the plants. Thanks!

Try the nutrient section lots of brands in there surely you'll find something there to please you!

The right plant has some white spots on the main stem all the way at the bottom. Any idea?

Nothing to worry about. I get that on older plants. Its a sign of age as far as I know

Well would you look at that I had bloom nutes the whole time...
By the way, do nutes expire???

That's a relief. Thanks

Hello! Just wanted to post an update. Both confirmed girls! Plant on the left had some sort of issue and was left behind by plant right which is doing pretty great I would say. I have been in veg for about a month and a half. Just switched them yesterday to 12/12. I read they sometimes double size during flower so I saw no more room for vegging. I switched nutrients. I now have (1) 400HPS bulb, (1)8 bulb T5(20,000lumens) and (1) 200Watt CFL(3900lumens) on each bottom corner of the tent (16,000lumens total). I have portable fans attached to each light as well. Temp went up a bit but have since adjusted.






Given my setup and progress. Can anybody give me an estimate on about how much I can yield from this op?? I took 6 clones. 3 from each. It seems to me they are both the same strain. Anyways! Any suggestions would be greatly apprecitated!

You have a good bloom nute already. The Botanicare Pro Bloom is a flowering aka bloom nute. Use that along with a laittle veg nute in flower to keep them green.

After you cut away all those weeds growing, you should yeild about 5gal of water, give or take. But don't drink it yet! Let it set in a dry place for about a month with a fan on it. You should finish off with about a cup of water; perfect for morning tea.

.... focus on a health, good tasting grow, not yeild size.

I'd say your suggestion goes hand in hand with what I'm pretty much asking but thank you anyway a for trying to help. Here are the ladies almost one month into flowering.
