How high up is your light from the top of the plant? he thought it was light bleaching but I'd like to think it's some albino gene haha. The optimist in me talking there.
Aye, looked like bleaching but happened on both the grows in odd spots so threw me a bit, smokes good :D

Yeah i think its light bleachin guys i started my 600w a/c at 12" away at 1st everthin was great i let it grow up to 8" from light still great for a week or 2....... then i thought id see if i could get it closer so let it grow upto 6" from light and it was still ok.......... so left it like that for a while....then last week my little desk fan i have blowin under my light to stop any heat spots packed in and thats what happened,......I didnt notice for a couple of days(WHAT A DICK) so im gutted now and ive raised the light upto 14" now and got a new fan......Do you think the top will recover, and will it have affected growth of the cola?

Heres some pics before and after

No big deal Pukka, just gives it a nice white top. Shouldn't affect the growth at all. Not sure if the chlorophyl (I think that's what gives it the green colour) will return but it's not a disaster if it doesnt.

Hehe, i'm watching an american cooking show called unique eats, there's some lady on there harping on about how the veal is great because it's local veal that has been raised in a humane way. veal, humane? :lol:

yeah they should try taking the calfs place.................what about all the thousands of calfs that get a bullet in the head a day or two after birth just so people can have milk for breakfast and in their tea.

Hold onto your hats, they're breaking out the eloquence! "The sausage is really salty and porky tasting" :lol: it's talking about southern food in this episode but i can honestly say, no wonder yanks are such a sterotypically fat arse nation! The food on this show, i honestly think i would either be sick eating it or would take a few forkfuls and refuse any more. Not nice imo!

And yeah, you get veggies who harp on about veal being bad, i don't see them drinking natural raw milk, no, last i checked it was a mass produced veal producing milk companies product. Vegans are nutters but i have a shed more respect for them than bloody veggies. Fish? PAH!!!

would appreciate someones help because im a little confused, ive just started bothering to ph, ive got some plants in compost and when i feed them with ph 6.4 and the run off is coming out at ph 5-5.5. do i carry on feeding 6.4 or adjust it to ph 7 or more to compensate for low run off.

I never bothered checking runoff with soil. Do they lok green and healthy? If so just keep doing what you''re doing. 6.4 to 5. doesn't seem so bad as it is in my eye, although there are many with a lot more experience.

Ive been asking to see if anyone has used Vitalink earth nutes before, apparently its designed for UK growers using hard water, ive just bought some but havent used it yet. Its not a bad price its 9quid a Litre and its not a bio nute. Its phosphite based with all the micro nutes needed and says it has special cleaning properties that keep the roots healthy, NPK is 2,2,4 on the bloom i cant tell you what the grow nutes are cos i dont use em mate
