    What is the medium/runoff pH and PPM if in hydro - 6-6.5 (strips, so not so accurate)
    What are the temps and humidity in the room? 22-27c, 39-60% Rh
    What size pots - 7 Litres
    Any bugs? Look real close. - No
    Any other pertinent info?
    Im running a wilma 4 pot system with drippers watering 6x15mins every 24hrs.
    Running a 250w HPS Cooltube + 300w LED Lighting.
    Have a carbon filter attached to a 290 cubic meter per hour exhaust fan, and a two speed 125/290 fresh air intake fan as well as a circulating fan.

    Temps are between 22-27 celcius.
    RH 39-60%
    reservoir temp: 22 celcius
    ph: 6+

    I got some clones off a friend of mine, and was told to just water them the first week.
    After 4 days they started getting brown spots and some yellowing.
    Yesterday they looked like i posted further up.

    I sort of paniced yesterday because they look like shit, so i cleaned the entire reservoir and added 1/4 of recommended Hesi nutrition in case this problem is caused my nutrition defecit.


    I've ordered a PH and a EC meter from Asia with express shipping 15 days ago but it still has not arrived so currently im relying on ph-strips wich is pretty inaccurate. according to the strips my ph is around 6-6.5ish.

    Hope someone can chime in here, i just want my girls the very best
     
  2. 7 liters is very small...? and the 250w hps is more heat than light..better with a 400w hps (IMO)...lol
     
    cut back your nutes by 50% or more, for the next 7 -12 days, but first flush your system
     
    good luck
