PPM meters are over rated. If your plant is showing signs of over fert. or not enough nutes, all you need to do is flush it and use the recomended nutrient strength. ;)Quote:

i think i f-ed up!! my plants are in there first week of bloom and they are so small and i need a good yelid what did i do wrong? The smallest is about 8in tall and the bigest is about 20in tall ??? do i still go into aggressive bloom for this week? they are starting to get buds on them but the trees are so small ( the 2 smallest are the Great White Shark and the other 4 are just some i picked up around the house) I moved them out in a bigger room so i can pull the lights back a little bit. (to make them reach for the light) HOW DO I GET THEM TO GROW BIGGER???? some one help!!
:(
umm how old were they when u went to flower 12/12 cycle?? they need to be atleast a 1ft tall or bigger to switch to 12/12 and get a good yeild.and how old r they over all they say it takes up to 6 to 8 weeks sometimes b4 they show sex mine took 9 weeks to show i kept mine in veg for 9 weeks and half was 3 ft tall and the others were 2ft tall as i did what u did and started half of them 3 weeks after the first but i let them grow way past where the younger ones were as big as they need to be so my first ones were way bigger when i went to flower them im in the 2nd weeks of flower and all the plants are 4ft tall now cause my younger ones caught up quick lol
infatuation.
hey the smallest two are the great white shark and they are the oldest!!! I think these plants dont get real tall. they where started in the first week of july and the ones i started latter where the first to show flowers and i had to pull 2 males they had balls all over them!! and one was showing to be female so i started bloom but they seemed to be small after the first week of bloom so I freeked out and flushed both pots out for 2 days then today i said F-it and went to the aggressive bloom nutes the buds are coming on so fast inn the tall plants and the others are starting to reach for the light good. The smallest is up to 9 1/4in!!! So do u think im doing the right thing?? here are some pic of new buds

You can get them for about $25 each.
never found one for that price more like 86 or more i do have liquid ph test kit but its hard to know for sure what ph i have i just go for yellow (6.0) u can see the kit on the first page but i had it wrong the one in the pic is more orange anywhere from 5.0 to 5.8 so now i just try to get yellow when testing here is a pic of the kit now and as u can see my trees are already looking better ( i had ran out 4 days-a-go) the pic befor look droopy now they are starting to perk-up:thumbsup: im just woreied about my plants just being really small and only getting a once or two off of each ( just seems like a waste of time for all the work!) here is new pic of the plants from far away and close-up as well as ph kit. i still dont kno what to do but would like to thank u all for the great help i would have not made it this far if not for u all!!!! thankx:) ok im haveing trouble with pic i will add later to day but they do look better!
the ph is yellow when tested and i have enough to last the duration of the bloom phase but no ppm tester. $25 humm? sounds to good to be true! lol
