edit: this should have been my first question, what kind of soil are you using and what's the N-P-K?
I just read your grow thread and you should only be using about .5 ml of ST per 3.781 liters (1 gal). That's like 1/4 teaspoon.

I am using start soil that has sp. moss, compost bark, perlite, and added lime. I just got a pH meter from eBay that is reading my pH around ~7.7 or so. I am not sure how accurate this is because I know there is added lime in the soil. I am going to go up to my local hydro shop and buy their combo kit of pH UP, pH Down solution, and pH tester paper to verify.
So I should start using ferts? Is that why the leaves look the way they do? I have not used Super Thrive on the plants for several weeks now and just started small amounts yesterday. Should I begin to introduce 1/4 strength of 24-8-16?
Thanks for your help!!
