MY PROBLEM IS THAT MY GIRLS WERE TRANSPLANTED FROM SOIL IN A DIXIE CUP TO A MINI DWC/NET POTS WITH HYDROTON ROCKS (THURSDAY 4/22/10). THE pH LEVEL OF THE WATER IS 5.8-6.2. THE NUTES USED: 1-tsp of ROOT 66 & SUGAR DADDY, LIGHTS 24HRS. THEY LOOKED GOOD FRIDAY. TODAY THE GIRLS LOOK SICK. SEE BEFORE & AFTER PICS

Hey Chief Puff Puff. Did you just put the roots directly into the hydroton? I can't see any root riot or rockwool.
I wouldn't be feeding them any additives at that stage either.

Sounds about right, there's still a fair bit of new growth.
That bud on the right in pic 3 might have got a bit burned. It's unlikely to start any new growth there at this stage so maybe look at taking that at 70 days to give you an early sample and focus the plant on the healthier buds.
She's looking sweet.

What's up Phase? You girls are looking very much like what I dream my 1st grow will be!! I had to start over using soil because I didn't know sh** about DWC. I could really use your advise. My lights dropped on my Baby, this her 26th day of vegging. Would you please help since you are using a pc too and would understand about the height I'm working with.

pic 1--Baby before lights dropped on her
pic 2--The front of Baby is where she was damaged
pic 3--The top has a little burn but the rest of the back of Back looks fine
pic 4 & 6--Closer looks at the damage area
pic 5--Closer look at the Back of Baby, she doesn't look too bad

QUESTIONS
1. How damaged is my Baby?

2. Would you top Baby soon after she recovers from the burn shock? This is her 26th day vegging. Chronic seed, 18/6 light cycle (3-6500 & 1-2700). I had to flush her because of nute burn.


3. My pc is 26.5h x 18.6D x 8.1w and Baby is about 6.5' tall, would you veg for another month (especially after topping)? Here is a look at my pc with Baby in it.

Thanks Phase, I was a little nervous to try LST but it was less stressful than doing the topping. I will keep you updated with my grow.
