I didn't realize before that you were using miracle grow soil. that already has fert in it, so I'd suggest you avoid ferting for a while and see how things go. this contradicts what I said earlier, but I overlooked the name of the soil. If they yellowing continues after not ferting for several days, then you might consider giving a dose of fert. it would be nice if you could post once a day with pics so we can see what's happening.

just a suggestion....when you take pics you might want to keep your hands palm down. theres a pretty much a full set of prints if anyone had the notion to collect em. better to err on the side of paranoia in some cases.

Hey mate.
Those plants are looking beautiful.
I my self and a few other local growers completely discourage miracle grow. Some people like it, some people hate it.
There's much better soils out there then what you see on the tv.
Have you taken a pH reading of the soil? What ratio of NPK are they getting now to correct said nutrition issue?
Curious to see if the problem lies within the soil.
Good luck mate and will check back!

Thanks man! I havent taken an actual pH test yet but I have done the baking soda and vinegar test and it come up neither. The Fox farm grow big is 6-4-4. Once its time to transplant Ill be using either 707 or fox farm ocean forest in 15 or 20g pots. so hopefully the miracle grow will last long enough.
And I am going to start using video updates instead so you can get a better view of the ladies. :thumbsup:

Every leaf on a marijuana plant is a water/shade/sun leaf.. whatever you want to call em. And no its not a deficiency I believe its a toxicity from over feeding them..

For your pests. Have you heard of Azamax? Can be used all the way up to harvest.. It will inhibit their ability to eat.. and thus their ability to reproduce.
I am a landscaper and as to your Aphids on your Moms roses, try spraying the leaves with high pressure water on the tops and bottoms every other day for about a week. Then check back every 3-4 days for their return. Most of the time this will knock the outdoor population out for quit some time.
You mentioned you don't check the ph.. The old drops in a vial are tried and true.. Still use em even with my digital combo meter.. $15 still gives the same info as a $200 meter.. Also run clean water through the plant and collect some water from the bottom. Test the water before and after you water the plant. Then compare results. I just used some pro-mix and didn't feed them until a week and a half into veg. At that time they were showing a small sign of a lack of nitrogen and some small purple streaking to show signs of needing phosphorus. Which would have been worse if I would have given them ferts right off the bat. Which is why I prefer using a ph neutral coco coir. Nothing in their except what you give em. Also Fox Farm works.. but if you want a simple no bs program.. Try checking out Technaflora's Recipe For Success. All in one box from cutting to flower. Less than $50. Can find em for as low as 30.
You said something about a flea like bug that jumps/flies. If you can squish them, they are SpringTails.. And is completely ok for soil grows. They are a beneficial insect that love moisture. Had a bag of some pro-mix #4 release thousands of these in my room... They can be a bit of a pest indoors, but just let the place dry a bit and they will go where the water is.
If you are just feeding your plants and not your soil I suggest you checkout Xtreme Gardening and their line of products.. Check em out on facebook. Also have sample packs going on right now. Tell em BontanicMike sent you. No I don't work for them, don't get paid, Just love their products. They are amazing and I feature them in my grows. I feel everyone should enjoy the benefits of there products. They are responsible for growing some of the worlds largest veggies! Growing Pumpkins up to 40 lbs in a day! Making some grow to 2000+ lbs
Happy Growing
And Keep up the good work!
