Sorry, I had to edit my post, my issue is knowing if this bud is un-safe, and if anyone know what the heck the little white specs actually are?

Sorry man, the pictures are a bit blurry in the area in question but they all look like dudes to me.
Dude, I don't see anything wrong with that plant. If you need DWC specific help you're going to be better served in the hydroponics sub-forum. I haven't had the opportunity to work with a straight DWC.
I have no idea. Never seen anything like this before.
Could be Powdery Mildew... I would remove anything that looks unnatural before smoking it.
You can use storage solution, designed specifically for this purpose, but for the most part anything that isn't filtered water will work fine. You can use your nutrient solution if you're not running organics.
My sprouts are in rockwell and the are dark and thicker at the but at the bottom it is skinnier and lighter. Why? Using regular 20w flourescant bulbs 2 inches away. Iam using tooth picks to prop them. the question is what can I do to solve these problems> The other 2 are fine. the fans are blowing on them 24/7.

Could me a moisture issue at the root zone, mold, or just a very stretched plant. 20w florescent bulbs may be kept closer than 2 inches, so push that down a little bit maybe more like just further than 1 inch if the heat is tolerable at that distance. As the plant grows it should fill out. If there is a root issue then they will die soon. Rockwool can be a little tricky at first...

I'm sorry that happened to you. Maybe the next run will be 4 ladies out of 4 seeds? That would be equal karma. 
Good luck

Hey bro I would recommend the 18/6. plants shut down growth after like 18 19 hours anyway so theres no need to waist energy on your bill just do the 18/6 and try to keep the same night time when you go 12/12 your plants will do fine........

Quick question . What do do signs of early buds look like . And what do hermies look like 2 weeks. Into flowering

The CFL bulbs are going to help out a lot. Keep them as close as you can to the plants. I agree that an 18/6 light schedule is appropriate for you.
If the WW are the biggest plant in there then you can top them now. It's never too late to top, you just hack off more nodes from the top. Most people top when there are between 3 and 5 nodes.When should i top these Wonder Womans so the littler ones can catch up?? Or what is the best time to do that?

It looks like they are recovering a little but I still think your watering habits aren't helping.
Early buds have small white pistils that form. Hermies will have a combination of "balls" and pistils. You should probably google your question to get some pictures.

18/6 huh alright then thx i will do that.i dont plan on flowering these indoors they are goin outdoors i like to grow outsside im waiting on a order of 90 seeds from nirvana right now that are also goin outdoors i ordered 5 first time just to make sure they arrived.ive been browsing the forum and not seeing any outdoor grow journals with pics.if i can figure out how to attach images i might do one this summer.i plan on trying my hand at cloning this year i got bout 20 fems coming out of the 90.growing inside is appealing though i would love to grow some nice bud like ive seen in here right in my bedroom.

No, I mean watering properly. I covered this for you ages ago.
Watering only when the planter needs water. Your plants are swimming in water and drowning. Your roots are sick, and that is why your plant is not growing.
Burn them in the bbq.hi there can anyone give any advice on packing the trimmings at harvest ready to dump, i live in the city so i need a discreet way, i dont have a car so i cant just put them in black bags and walk down the street with themand easy way to compress????
I don't but I bet Google does.

SNOW CRASH "If the WW are the biggest plant in there then you can top them now. It's never too late to top, you just hack off more nodes from the top. Most people top when there are between 3 and 5 nodes."
Ok so I jsut counted. I have probly about 7 - 8 nodes on each right now. Whats the prime number of nodes to keep for best yeild/quality results? Also a couple of the nodes on a couple of the plants are pretty/very close to the soil at the bottom of the stem. Do I want to keep those and count those as nodes or are they too close to the bottom?? Keep in mind I'm trying to do a smaller scale SOG with 12 plants getting short/medium hieght. I have seedlings that are like two inches to catch up tho (hopefully they start taking off soon here ) +rep man, I appreciate you taking the time to respond. First timer needs all the info I can soak up!! Thanks man!

Well... for starters, in a true SOG you don't top your plants... So that's not what you are really doing here.
You can count whatever nodes you like to count. As far as the best spot... There is no best spot. Each plant, each phenotype, each stage of growth will have its own best. This is subjective and up for you to decide on.
I think you've ignored doing a lot of the basic homework when it comes to growing. Training your plants and planning for flowering are very important processes that need to be handled appropriately. I cannot grow your pot for you, so it is up to you to educate yourself on this matter. Educating yourself is not asking someone to tell you how to do it. The information is available, and this is one of those things that requires practice and research.
Look at other grows. Do some experimentation. Don't think you're going to do it perfect the first time... that your very first grow will never be bested. That is ridiculous.
So just top your plants and see what happens. Check out other pictures from other growers in the topping guides (easily found on this, and many other, sites).

I totally agree with you on the research thing man for sure. I'm deffenitely new and am up til like 4am most nights watching vids and reading stuff. I just like to get ppl's word from experience is all. And looking at your journal pics and stuff I just wanted to pick your brain a bit
I will keep researching every day for sure!! Do you have any favorite books, sites (besides this one, this place is AWESOME!) articles that you could possibly share with me?? I swear sometimes i feel like i've hit "the end of the internet" and start just searching in circles In "your opinion" would you even top the taller ones (wonder womans, which is suppose to be a medium height strain i believe) and let the others catch up?(others being rasberry cough, nyc pd, and og k, and if I remember right from looking those are all supposed to be taller strains, wait no, og kush is medium too) Thanks man!
