One more month, and I should be able to take some nice clones off of them, and fins out who is female. Then keep a small perpetual harvest going for my self. Can't wait. I should get my White Rhino going too, and maybe a few G13 skunks while I'm at it.

Wow Dewey!

I've seen your growing prowess improve over time. You're really getting this down. You're going Ebb & Flow soon, correct? Hydro is cake if you have all your tools together.:blsmoke:

looks like a Mag def from the picture...I don't see how or why, but if that was the only plant that got over dry, then maybe it just went into shock. I would hack off those dieing leaves, keep it on a good schedule and it should bounce back....I hope it is the male of the group!

I never let them get too dry. I always let the plant tell me when it's thirsty. But have never let them dry out too much. I cut back the dry ones, and then the next set of green leafs dried up. I watered with nutes yesterday, so will see how they look tonight. Also going to give them there first flush on the next watering. Get rid of all the extra salts and junk. Might even use florakleen too to help rid of. What ya think?

Week 6

Room Conditions:
400W Metal Halide ON 18/6
Distance from top of Growing Medium 24"
Temperature – 72F
Humidity - 32%
Room/Light vent running-YES
Small room fan 24/0

Nutrient Solution:
[FONT=Verdana,Arial,Helvetica]RO Water Ph'd 5.9


NOTES: Figured out what was killing my plants, for some reason there run off PH was anything from 4.9-5.1 cutting off nutes and burning them. I got them up to about 5.4-5.5 on a flush. Will flush once more today or tomorrow after they dry out good. Then will get back on nutes slowly again. But there looking like they did before all this happend. I cought it on time. Thats the key.

Only one plant got hit hard, but its recovering, so she will make it.

I got some goodies today! 2'x4' ebb & flow setup, 600w digital w/ cool tube, hydro nutes, heat matt for the clones, bag of perlite, new pots! Can't wait to be some clippings, and get the al b fuct on!

All I need is a 6" fan and finish building the mother room and flower room with the new equipment. :)

Your run off will almost always be lower than the water going in. That 5.9 you are watering at is way too low. Get it up closer to like 6.5-6.7 and you will see an improvement.

I don't know what kind of soil you are using, but I use Ocean Forest, and it seems to have a real low pH to it. When I water at like 6.7 pH, my run off is usually somewhere around 5.7-6.1.

Don't use those duct booster fans from Home Depot. They are made to "boost" airflow through duct that already has a fan pulling air through it. I have one for my hood, its 420cfm, and my 130cfm computer fan blows more air. Those booster fans just can't handle the static pressure from the duct. Spend the extra $70 and get a good inline fan made to handle a long duct run.

I would suggest switching to Ocean Forest from the Happy Frog when you start to flower. The Happy Frog is garbarge soil and has major pH issues. It is their "value" line of soil and was made to be sold at large chain stores like OSH, etc. This is why the Happy Frog comes in a larger bag and is cheaper than the Ocean Forest.

Mine has a free air flow of 420cfm and my 130cfm computer fan still blows more. They will lose tons of their cfm due the static pressure caused by the duct. If it starts at 160cfm, it will end up at like 50cfm after a 3ft duct run. They are cheap for a reason. If you need to "boost" the air flow through your ducts, these are the perfect solution. But for a "stand alone" fan, they just don't have the power.

I was going to get an 8" duct for fresh vented air from outside to the flower and veg rooms. As for my cooltube, I'm going with a centri 6"
