and the clone I had looks like death.but she alwase had ph tested tap water to grow in. ph is 5.9-6.0

the ferts I am gunna be using is. for veg is gunna be botanicare pure blend pro hydro-organic accelerated vegetative flrmula 3-1.5-4.
and for flowering I am gunna be useing the general hydroponics florabloom 0-5-4.

pix.1 is of 1 of the seeds that poped out the shel.
pic 2 is of the dieing clone.

there is also a fan in the grow area.

You need flora micro to go with your flora bloom

I want to apologize for this post if English isn't your native language.

Not to be too much of a jerk, but your posts look like they've been typed by an 8 year-old.

We're trying to change the laws in this country and this kind of thing is embarrassing and makes us all look like idiots.

I will admit that I do suck at spelling but I don't worry about it too much.

anyway on the good news almost all of my plants have poped out there home.

and when they get bigger I'll transplant them into there own dwc buckets.

what about the clone? how does she look? how established are her roots? if not very then top feeding her until the roots grow down into your bucket will help.

anyway, toke amongst yourselves

bozo,
peace, love, dope

Wow those are some good looking genetics. Looks like some good headies if you do it right. You even have a tri-leafer (triforce). I have been told by a certain stinky someone that it is a whorled Phytaxy but it could possibly be a tri-ploid meaning it could have an extra set of chromosomes. Triploids supposed are 33% bigger... so the leaves are bigger the stems and the harvest... but I'll probably get crucified for saying that but a natural polyploid is extremely rare, anyways... but it can be induced supposedly. I would treasure the trileafer itll be a good one.

new pix.

I hope that both of them end up being female.
and I am gunna veg them for around another month then flower them. cuz I don't have much light to work with.

and also I changed the water with new clean fresh ph corrected water. it was right there between 5.9-6.0.

stinky said thats where UR waters ph needs to be at.

and what about adding a little bit of molasses to the water.
good or bad idea.

I havent done it yet. but if it would help the plant grow better then I am for it. or R they still way to small still.

and Y R they growing so slowly.:wtf:

any comments would be nice.

it looks like a ph problem to me... Did you get the soil PB Pro? try lowering the pH about .3-.5 and see if they cheer up. And what kind of hydro system are you gonna use?

Are you feeding them and do you have cal-mag plus in there?

I'm with Loc Nar you may want to try some cal-mag; it helped me out a lot when my plant was looking similar

don't add your molasses until a week before switching to 12/12 flowering (won't hurt anything, but doesn't visibly benefit until bud formation) ... :jointsmile:

where can I get some cal-mag?
and what is cal-mag?
and what does it do to help the plant.

your local hydroponic store or the internet. def get some cal/mag plus. It just adds calcium magnesium and iron to your water.

DON'T PANIC.

Use 1 to 2 teaspoons per 5 gallons of epson salts. Like for your bath, get it at the drug store maybe super market. It's calcium the plant needs plus a few other minerals. It will hold you over nicely till you get cal-mag plus. Look at some of the sponsers here or do a search closer to you.

When my plants are that young i don't use nutes or if i do i use a seedling one part nute in low amounts.

can you post a pic of your set up ie How far the lights are from the plants/what lights your using.

also how good are your bubbles? if youve using them airstones for a grow before they get blocked up.

If your ph has been 6 or so this whole time it's not that and with rootroit cubes there more then enough nute for a seedling.

I would say the waters not aired enough to keep a seedlings roots misted above the water level and/or the lights too hot on the plants.

good luck

btw if ur using hard tapwater ( sounds like it ) not RO or soft water u souldnt need cal/mag at that young if not at all.

If your using tap water and have not checked it. Remember chlorine has one function. Too kill all organic matter.

Well water can have too many minerals.

Water always need to be checked that is why most hydro'ers go with RO/ Distilled. It is easier to add back than to take away.
