I should say that leaves are drooping the tops fine the top has no spots on it nor blops or anything and my nutes does have high N and low P(7%) and K(6%) anyway are their any products in particular or a certain nute combo im going for here a.k.a 10-7-9 or what not. thanks :rasta:
EDIT: Oh and yes my lighting is fine I don't even feel a tad of discomfort even when I lowered them.
another thing whats a good PH tester that won't break easily??

Instead look for something more balanced with a higher P/K to N ratio, like 1-7-5.Quote:

Take care. :jointsmile:
yeah don't got those in town (or im just a retard) I usually go to Lowe's, Walmart, or my mother(she used to grow) she gots all her left over stuff which im using. I'll update on what I get. By organic you mean those things you shove in the soil and its degradable??
No, I'm definitely not referring to fertilizer sticks. Those are too strong for potted plants, and you have no control over the amount of fertilizer released and how long it will take to degrade. By organic I just mean types of fertilizers that are all natural, and don't contain heavy metals and synthetic chemicals. Guano, blood/bone meal, worm castings, fish emulsion, etc., are all examples of organic fertilizers. Miracle Grow, Schultz, and the like are examples of chemical fertilizers.Quote:

What is the PH of the run-off, a common cause of Phosphorus (P) deficiency is incorrect PH.Quote:
-Soil pH - 6.6
-Water source - Faucet water thats sat for 3days
-Water pH - 7.2
:cool:
One thing you should not forget is that you are using a soil that already has slow release ferts in it. Anything you add could knock everything out of balance.
i got a 3 in 1 ph/ec/tds meter by Milwaukee for $140 shipped on ebay with a weeks worth of solution.
First off, this grow do the best you can and good luck!
Before your next grow READ about organic growing Organic Gardener, Encyclopedia of organic gardenig, Web stuff that is real not commercial BS.
Jesus told me to love all human beings but YOUR SOIL SUCKS.
Next Grow: Whitny farms potting siol, a pinch of dolomite lime (know the lime, love the lime, but not too much), and peirlite one to one with the potting soil.
Chemical Fertilizers are for those children of God who are misinfromed, stupid, ingnorant or evil.
Find a garden center that has organic "add amends" and boxed organic fertilizer if not a hydro store, those other stores (Wall-mart, Lowes) are for those mentioned above.
Soil fungi (Mycilin or somthing like that) are your best friends adding them to your soil won't get you laid but at least your dirt will be fertile.
Peace out:rastasmoke:
