  2. Can you post some pics & do you know how to test the PH of the soil runoff water
     
  3. I took some run off water as it was draining and tested it i used ph water 5.8 to flush what i collected i tested to be 6.3 is this o.k? can do some pics tomorrow as they are sleeping now.Thanks
     
  4. If your in soil then 6.3 is not ok, try for 6.7
     
  5. Here are some pics they are in coco soil mix

  6. I dont know what to tell you, I grow soil,
    if you are using soil whats the point of the hyro balls on top of the soil?
     
  7. your soil PH is off .... optimum range 6.5 - 6.8

    use 6.8-7.0 water to flush, untill your in the optimum PH range

    last gallon of the flush feed with 1/4 strength nutes


    are you in the 12/12 lite cycle for flowering?
     
  8. not started 12/12 yet as i would have liked them a little bigger, also only 2 out of the 5 look female right now.as i only flushed 2 days ago should i let them dry out before flushing again with 6.8-7.0 ph water?
     
  9. everyday the PH has locked out nutes is a bad day for the plant...the plant cant fix its self when the PH is locking out nutes

    flush it now


    as to looking female....if your not in 12/12 your guessing, why not clip a clone from each plant.......... throw the clones in 12/12 liteing to force sexing, then you know whos, who? NOW without risking males in your flowering stage;)

    post the pics here when you think the clones sexed, we help you
     
  10. To take clones?? take a stem from main stalk top/middle of plant?? do i need something like rooting powder to dip the clone in before planting??

    will flush again today

    Thanks
     
  11. All flushed, ph now 6.8 run off and fed 1/4 dose nutes.

    lets hope tomorrows a better day for them!
