Why does it have to be so hard getting help? Please take a look

Guys Thanks in advance. I have gleaned so much info from you guys but I am a little unclear on a few things


++++++++++++++My set up as follows ++++++++++++++

I have 7 girls.

Clone

3 Super Lemon Haze
3 Cheese
1 White diesel

Cabinet - Gutted TV Cab (54" (tall) x 48" (Wide) x 26" (deep)) This cab will only be being used for Veging until they don't fit anymore then they will be moved into a flower room ( 10' x 12') under 1000w HPS (not set up yet next week mabey)

Lights - DIY CFL hood (see pic) Kept within 2 - 4 " from tops)

Light Cycle - 18 hours (comes on at 4pm off at 10:am)

Average temps
Lights on - 74-80
Lights off - 61-67

Meduim - Soil Grow - Fox Farm , Ocean Forrest (no added Perlite)

Went in dirt Jan 20
(NOTE) When I recieved the clones on Jan 20 only 2 of the 7 had roots showing through the plugs. Because I did not have a propigation tray or clonex (first grow didn't think I would need it until later). They had to go in dirt ( FFOC no perlite added).

PH - 6.5 (tap water after setting 24 hours is ph 8 I am using PH down to get PH to 5.5-6.5)


Water - Because they were so young I may have over watered them a bit. So now I am letting the pots dry out (just until they are light). and then adding water just until it starts to run out the bottom. Being Fed at lights on. In between Waterings doing light Foliar feed at lights on.

------NOTE----- Daily Foliar feeding (upper and under leaves Heavy coating) at aprox 1/2 way through daily light cycle, with just water ( was using 1/4 strength nutes for 1 week but discontinued ALL nutes at same time.)

Nutes - I started adding 1/4 strength nutes ( FF Grow big) at aprox 15 days in dirt, every other watering. (After researching FFOF I realized that there are nutes in soil and stopped Nutes after aprox 7 days of nutes)




concerns
1. - plants A (super lemon haze) and D (white diesel), The growth is SO much smaller then the others, They all went in dirt at the same time.
2. - Mites??
3. - Strange Claw like Leaf formations ( I think it is Nitrogen toxicity)
4. - Ready for transplant?
5. - and any problems you might forsee.



---(NOTE)----All Pics are front Shot then Top shot, Pics were taken Feb 15-2009 right before lights out. They are drooping a little do to dry soil ( getting fed when lights come on),

Hmm, difficult to diagnose.. But the one's with Red stems could be being over fed.. (or this maybe genetics..)
I think your right about the clawing though, too much N... Other than that I'm pretty stumped, I hope someone else on here can help ya?!

Nice DIY cab by the way! ;)
 
I see some yellow spotting on the tops of some of the leaves. They COULD be mite bites but I am not 100%

Anything on the underleaves?

CK
 
No nothing underneath. I will post uderside pics after lights on.


usually with spider mites you will see small webs and TINY like this size

.

white specks on the under sides of the leaves.

as for is they are ready to transplant...I try to wait until I know a girl has filled the current pot with roots. If you see roots trying to poke out the drainage holes, its ready IMO.

Can you keep it in the current pot? Sure, all the way to harvest but I prefer to give my girls lots of room to grow. It depends on your situation, space and all that.

Also, I dont really subscibe to the foliar feeding thing. IMO, if your soil/medium is healthy and your providing good nutrition, you should'nt foliar feed. This may be contributing to your N toxicity.

This actually plain as day now that you've pointed it out CK - I agree... I should of known this myself!

I think you may well be right about the mite too, although I thought that the white spots could be trick of the light due to the foliar feeding?
But I would check for mite now that CK has pointed it out too ! :)
 
Looks good actually they could use a transplant tho and if that is what i think i see in the first pic or any others don't cut away anything yet they are to small for that yet.
No nutes till 30 to 45 days of planting in that soil for the first WATER on just to be safe then start with 1/4 and work your way up. Try a teaspoon of mollasses in a gallon on your next water.
 
I was expecting to see some shock but I just woke up to alot of new growth over night in the new pots.
