Soilless Grow - WW, BB, KK, PPP, PS, NL

Ehhhhh change of plans. Here's my girls at the start of week 5. I wish I had a MH conversion bulb so they wouldn't stretch so much. Next time...

Seems something has went awry since I last checked on them. A small bit of rust colored stuff on the leaves, and some of the leaves are curling up. Two plants in particular are so bad that one side of the leaves are touching the other :/

Notice the two little ones in the middle? Ironically, those and the PPP are the only ones I paid for. PPP are doing as well as the others, but the KK and BB are tiny!

To be honest, I haven't a clue. I haven't went into town for quite awhile (I live wayyyyyy out) so I haven't picked any up. I have a test kit, but with the inability to change it, I've just been dreading looking at it at all :( Before next watering (2-3 days) I plan to go to my grow shop and get some PH up and down. They quit carrying the technaflora and the GH last I was there was like 18 dollars a bottle, the AN were like 25 (supposedly more concentrated, but I'm too broke to care). Bummer. Thanks man, you're always helping out.

Evil I look forwards to the Kandy kush grow and the smoke report. I was going to get em but the Aurora Indica was calling my name. Dude your doing a fine job. But keep a eye on the PH when u have the kit. Keep growing on!

What a coincidence, that's the one I'm looking forward to most, also! :DOG Kush and Trainwreck, can't go wrong (unless I mess it up). I haven't found much info on it, though. I've always read good things about DNA though, so I'm hoping Reserva doesn't disappoint. This strain seems to be VERY delicate, it's the smallest of all my plants. I didn't think it was gonna make it, but now it's looking healthy though a bit puny. I'm hoping it pulls through til the end :thumbsup: Who's the Aurora from? I believe I was considering that, is that the one that finishes flower realllllllyyyyyy quickly?

As for the PH, indeed! I decided based on money issues to go with some aquarium PH up & down. Comes in a small dropper bottle too, so that should be handy. Thanks for the encouragement man!

Oh, and if anyone familiar with the FIM technique could check out this thread:

FIMing - Fail or Success? - Cannabis Forums Message Boards - Medical Marijuana, Cannabis Club, Dispensary, News

That'd be greatttt. Want to get these babies topped/fimmed and flip them into flower ASAP! :D

I got my genetics from mj-seeds.nl and the flowering time is 65-70 days the plant has been short so far

no worries evil, that's what we are here for. some people just get confused and think that forums = spoon feeding. i'll pretty much help anyone as long as they try to figure it out for themselves first.

just make sure as you gain experience that you do the same. that's how it works.

ok, so I just got some aquarium ph up and down. I read that alot of people use this stuff without any problem, but does anyone know for sure if sulfuric acid is safe to use on plants? some more of the leaves are curling up a little like in the previous pictures, but not as bad many on a single plant as that. the leaves are still green and aren't dry or discolored. think I should flush with ph corrected water? they don't need to be watered yet, fed them like 2 days ago and they still probably have 2 days til they need watered. or can they wait?

i would go ahead and flush now as it won't hurt anything but if you let them go it could be worse in several days!

i have been using pH down made for an aquarium and have not had any problems (not that it is the best thing).
