Do you think it could be a nitogen def, a lot of times when you switch to flower or bloom nutes they have little or no nitrogen, I've been giving mine a 1/4 of grow nutes with 3/4 bloom nutes to keep things green for the fist few wks...

so your clones became regular at some point, right? I have some crazy deformities this time.

check your pH and ppm it should be like 5.8-6.2 and 1100 probably. lower pH doesn't work out real well

iwell if figured out that i probably over fed them becuz i had a leak in the drain plug and didn't realize it so i thought the plants were drinking the water so i was replacing with nutes and water every day for like three days before i realized there was water on the floor around the rez. so i just overfed them i believe. at this point i'm seein new growth at all bud sites daily so i'm just goin to wait a few days to see if things work themselves out. i'm just kinda pissed the soil plants are coming along better than the hydros. it seems as this grow goes on i keep leaning harder towards sticking with soil, there has just been so much less hassle vs. hydro. and at this point are already producing better results for me. not saing soil is better for everyone but 4 me i think next grow is FFOF all the way.

yea well hydro is great if it works out but it happens that theres always problems here and there with it. soil for me this time :bigjoint:

my main bugaboo is the noise the air pump makes :| I should just buy quieter ones but also changing reservoirs is :|

one reservoir - one water pump - one main line - drip easyness

found dis in the grow faq so it wasn't sulfur

1) N, P, K, Mg and S are considered mobile: they can move up and down the plant in both xylem and phloem.
Deficiency appears on old leaves first.

2) Ca, Fe, Zn, Mo, B, Cu, Mn are considered immobile: they only move up the plant in the xylem.
Deficiency appears on new leaves first.

shit dude save those ladies! if you have gh micro and bloom mix up a new reservoir and just use those two things. if you have cal mag add that. I don't know about the advanced nutrients stuff, pH it to 5.8. save emmmmmmmmmm its worth it man. if the roots are smellin all funny the air pumps might be clogged and if there is rot its gotta get cleaned up.

Hey, he's got some points. Kind of crude and I'm not sure what he's saying about nutes, but stop and think about what he's saying, he's got some points.

I've had a bunch of success with dwc so far, don't give it up yet.

:finger::finger::finger:your mom was crude last night

I'm saying mix a fresh reservoir with everything the plant needs. simple sauce. for plants.
My mother is 79 years old. You better think twice before you insult a man's mother asshole. You just crossed the line boy.

But you are right about the nutes.

i think u both smoked too much i said i'm gonna let things play out for a few dayz not let it die or anything not that anyone said they were going to anywayz u guys are tweakin. it ain't that bad everthing is still nice and perky so thats a good sign.i've been lookin at a lot of pics of plants flowering and a lot of them have yellow upper leaves maybe its just sumthin normal. or itcould be the color is nothing but some bleaching from the 600w being too close without proper ventilation everything is still growin new hairs and i think i was just freakin out a little.

it' cool man just take a min. and readthrough the last couple posts b4 u go jumpin in wildin out. i was freakin out for no reason i don't need yall freakin out with me; i need u guys to be my voice of reason and calm my hyperactive ass down, not rile me up. at any rate things are lookin fine i haven't shut the lights on yet when i do i'll post sum pics even though with my camera u won't be able to see anything yet. i'm hoping the reason the hydros are laggin behind the soilies is becuz the hydros are all indica dominant strains.

the third up close is the hydro pic the first two are the soilies. as u can see the soils are doin better i'm not sure why. all of the plants in the hydro are basically where the last pic is. starting at approximately the fourth node site on to the top of every branch.

Did you start the soilies and the hydros at the same time? How do you think the two compare? The guys at a dispensary I go to say the soils taste a lot better, but I'm thinking that if trimmed properly there shouldn't be a difference.
