Hey,

Now that the other 3 plants are towards the home streach, with maybe three weeks of flowering left I thought it was time to start vegging another batch. This time more plants and a variety of strains.

There are a total of six plants, 2 pot of gold, 2 pinneapple punch, 1 sensi star and one cinderalla. Its nice being able to pick out any variety you want from the store. I like the variety....I hope the quality is good.

They came from the club in rock wool clubes, roots were clearly showing around the sides. They have been transplanted into small pots with coco/perlite and some clay pellets for drainage.

Lighting is from 1 small skinny floro grow light (like 1.5 feet) its pretty bright + 4 foot balast with 2 agro grow blubls + 2 40 watt cfls 5500K

unfortunately 1/2 the clones are wilting severly, the other 1/2 look great. odd?

put 2 of the severly wilting clones into a makeshift humidity dome. I pulled one out of the pot, it seemed like the root structure was kind of small... not really penetrating the rockwool. The other 4 are looking ok... one seemed to have signs of nute burn, dark brownish edges on of the leaves. its odd because they are in a neutral medium and haven't given them any nutes at all. hopefully its not some form of mold. i think i am going to mist with a 1% hydrogen peroxide just to be safe

Put a dome over two of the clones yesterday, they are looking better.

bad news: strange dark spots on some of the girls... kind of grey areas on leaves, not very distinct or sharp, also some leaves are curling, its not nute burn, they are in a neutral medium with no nutes given... actually i am probably going to start misting with a tiny bit of nutes, 96ppm

good news: wilting plants looking much better

here are pictures, the two are of a weird discoloration on a leaf with a little clurling

and the other an oddly shaped wound from some sort of bug i guess... does anyone know what it is?

the plants strong enough to stay out of the humdity domes are getting a little hps light, just an hour and many feet below the light. I just want to start getting them acclimated. I don't think the root structure is large enough yet to support a full does of a high intensity light.

in other news i figured out how to use the close up function on my camera... not very well yet, but its better than the blury stuff i had before

more pics, i found the damn blackish grey stuff on my other girls too... it seems to be eating the leaves from the outside in down the leaf...

hmm I think it might be "grey mold" or boritis (spelled incorrectly here i am sure) it is most aggressive looking on the wounded/clipped parts of the clone

looked at it under 30x definately looks bad... I am no expert but i think its definately mold... i guess its time to start over

hmm maybe this is nothing to be freaked out about... which i was
ahh the ridiculous highs and lows of a first time grower... i will be bald by the time its over

a friend said it may just be necrosis, some sort of burn caused by stress (like heavy water which i may be misting with) in any case i am going to just see what happens
