Chasing you around the boards...? You my friend, are laughably ignorant if you think you are important enough to follow around. I stop-in daily to see if there's any assistance needed. You know...to teach others how to properly bring their meds to harvest, how to avoid problems in the first place, easy and effective techniques...and to point-out incorrect/inaccurate/harmful advise.

Regarding your little pretend threat...it's as impotent as most of your advise I've seen lately. You seem to want folks to trust you with the responses you give, but when confronted for reasoning behind your responses...you offer no proof. Just idle threats.

Kinda hard to trust someone's advise, when they can't explain the how's and why's. Stick with it, slick...you'll get there.

Shake's problem is PH. And as you know I did suggest this guy show pic's for issue I.D.
When leaf curl is the issue,PH is usually the problem.The fact that PH is a good starting point ..does not make me ignorant or wrong.It's called "troubleshooting" you need to eliminate certain suspect's before you can find the culprit sometime's.
Maybe I could offer more reasoning behind my advice....it seem's to me that getting the plant's healthy thru troubleshooting is also a way of teaching.
When dealing with pot head's i try not too make thing's any more confusing than it needs to be.

this is a picture of the leaves the picture isn't good but hopefully its better then nothing.

Rusty and I are both sorry for fighting in your thread.

I have a hard time believing that a cfl is causing heat stress.If it was touching the plant..then maybe,but im thinkin not.
Set your PPM at 400 and your PH at 5.8,Do not over-water,Use your finger to feel if the vermiculite is wet/cold if it is..dont water yet.Root's need the medium a lil dry sometime's too encourage growth,mostly during the night cycle.

Oh really? Then you must grow a different species of cannabis. Ph issues often start with the canoeing of the leaves, minor dulling of the leaves color, small yellow-greyish spotting (neckrosis setting in) and then usually a lightening of the green in the plant (chlorophyll burning-off) yellowing of the entire plant, followed by yellowing of all leaves and shoots.
(canoeing is, of course, different than leaf curl.)

Giving a diagnosis prematurely is not troubleshooting...it's shooting blanks in the dark, and risking damage to anothers meds.
The purpose of troubleshooting, first and foremost, is to help another member provide you the info to make a correct diagnosis and treatment plan. Not to assume he's clueless, or just another pot-head that can't get past the ph issues.

My sentiments exactly. Which is why giving half-assed guesses, to 'correct' another people's issues is frowned-upon. I could care less if you truly believe that the leaf curl is a ph issue. Until all the questions are answered, and an accurate assesment of the growers methods have been determined...you are offering bullshit packaged as a 'one size fit's all' response.

Yeah...we all know that medical cannabis users are stone-cold morons. :wtf: After statements like that one...I'm guessing the feeling is mutual. :jointsmile:

Looks like overwatering, and have you given those infants nutes already? (too young)

^^^ IMHO...much better. :thumbsup:

In a soiless medium,light nute's are ok,even for youngster's ... With no pre-existing nute's in the medium you have to add them yourself.just dont over do it.

ok so nutrients or no nutrients?
if im only supposed to have a little is this too much 2.5/us gal
ill take some water out.
and i have another question do i have to do weekly water changes or is that not true?

Yes it need's light nute's,thats it's only source of food.
Yea that's the right amount of nute's (atleast according to GH).I change my water every 2 weeks or so,but in DWC i would prolly go with weekly.Stale water can cause root rot.You might ask some of our DWC guy's about that.Try to get a ppm meter,it's worth the cost.

and my last question for this thread what is the shortest plant i can start to bud? i only have a computer case height will that be good?
