Hello So these or the clone offspring from my Ice and Chrystal and thry are on week 4 of 12/12 for some reason some of the leaves arent opening up like normal. Is there something I should know or should I just let them be? p.s. I have an amazing discovery that im sure others already know, but here it is.. So i have a tent that is 48x48x72. Well 72 is too high for grown room celing so whats did I do after months of it being in storage and not using it?? Flipped that bitch on her side!!! I put in some extra support for the lights and now have an amsing tent that I will never turn right side up again. I have SOO much room now.. I ordered a 600w cool tube to help out my 400w in there now, its so long in there the 400 dosnt cover my whole tent now so they are in there kinda bunched up until the 600 comes in the mail.
OK so Ive been down this road before and here it is again,, But I cannot figure out this time exactly what is going on here. my PH is a lil high so next watering im going to bring it down with some "down" (im not far off just around 7.2) so im going to water with 6.3.... I know it seems like a cal/mag def, but ive been giving a light supplement of cal/mag every watering... which is where I think might be the problem??? since I am using tap water there really isnt need to supplemental cal/mag ive learned.. so my questions are..... what are your inputs???? If i water 6.3 and stop with the cal/mag should this correct my problem???? P.s. i have a light infestation of spider mites and that is going to be cleared up quick cuz I brought hell upon them this morning and will continue to bring hate and discontent to them until they are gone... I have attached pictures as well as a cool macro shot of my Icy ladies (new phone has macro feature!!) Strains are White Widow (whos showing the worst signs), and ice & chrystal
come on people I really need to figure this out so I can make corrective actions first thing in the morning
Your issues are most likely pH and bug related. You kinda answered your own questions. pH is too high, and there are spider mites. Mighty wash or Spinosad for the spider mites and vinegar as pH down. Look into it
thats what I figured I just needed some reassuring advice besides my own.. Im gonna water with a lower ph using ph down for a few times using just plain water. this should lower the soil ph as well as provide kind of a flush then return back with lower nutes.
How did your widow go? this is my second time with her and for some reason i cant get her right she always goes south on me. and i dont understand it because shes suppose to be a very hardy plant. after this on im giving up on her and saving the last 4 seeds i have for some other time

I had 1 gallons with 2 tsp of Botanicare Cal/Mag plus for 2 feedings in a week, and that was barely enough.
maybe thats my problem then cuz that is the widow and she is showing the worst signs. and her ph is not off at all.
I would say watch ur nute levels use only r/o water and for the bugs use azamax or neem seed oil if you like the organic side and i must say it does work wonders ^_^ to prepare neem seed foliar spray make sure you use a few drops of dish soap in the water or its not gonna work out for you lul also dont let the mixture of soap/neem oil sit for more than 4-6 hours or it will go to waste.. shake well before using For future questions http://forum.grasscity.com/sick-pla...ur-deficiencies-here-easy-learning-table.html
tomorrow is water day so im going to use 6.3 of plain water then the next watering 6.5. then feed on the third and get them back on schedual
