3rd time.. would love input!

pics 1 and 2---> soil is very dry on this plant... altho it looks pretty good... I am having yellowing at the bottom... mainly on growth coming in.. can someone help me on this??

pics 3 and 4----> another decent sized lady about 5 weeks old on week 2 of FF schedule feeding... again yellowing and dying of bottom leaves.. this is becoming very frustrating!! ANY ADVICE VERY MUCH APPRECIATED!

Hmm you said the leaves are canoeing and I think that could be due to acouple things. Any heat stress on those ladies. I know when my girls canoe its either because they need alittle N or heat stress. I was using the calmag in the water part of the schedule however since yellowing has started I began adding her to the feeding cycle as well. I am using new grow tech products they seem to need alittle more N during weeks 4-5. That is most likely why they are yellowing abit. How growth slowed?

I wish I had a photo of my bro's one month old seedlings I saw yesterday. He's been calling me asking wtf could be wrong, the leaf tips turn yellow then burn to a crisp. 34 watt shop light, 70ºF, soil/home-made perlite and promix. He started using his Neptune fish kelp nutes as this problem had already begun. It has'nt improved. Four inch red toothpicks with nothing but a tiny top-knot, like a week old seedling.

First thing I noticed was that the cellar was rank with mold odor. I told him to get the plants out of there. He said, "I can't"...ok then.
Then I suggested that he either trasplant one or more of these dying soldiers into a known good potting soil or start a couple of new seeds, some in his soil, some in the commercial potting soil.
He said, "mumble mumble, that ain't it, these are just about dead so why bother, etc. etc. etc."

Sometimes I wonder, why do I bother?

Good Luck, Marc

i dont believe it is heat stress my temp gets no higher than 76 and no lower than 64.. the light is about 18-24 inches away from the tops of the ladies... I am thinking it could be Nitrogen because I have only given it big bloom until recently i started with Grow big which is 6-4-4... so hopefully this should help things out in the coming week...

hey sorry for the delay been busy with work and such... just wanted to give an update.... 4 ladies looking pretty good... please check out the pictures and let me know whats going on... all seem to have some kind of problem... I have flushed repotted ph tested.... and still bad looking leaves... and not quite the growth I think they should be...

pic1- the 4 ladies under 400W hps
pic2- lady 1 big fan leaves but good color...2nd week of flowering week 6 FF nutes
pic3-lady 1 again
pic4-lady 2... just put into bigger pot... final home 3rd week of flowering large gap in growth any ideas?? getting FF nutes and one watering of the 2 i add humboldt snowstorm
pic5- the top of lady 2... hopefully she blossoms :thumbsup:

pic1- lady 3 she is tall with lots of growth but very vertical..
pic2-the middle of lady 3 in week 3 of flowering as well
pic3-lady 4 dont know whats up very droopy.. but it has gorwth and i have let it dry out and then watered and then tried feeding and the bottom looks terrible any advice would def be appreciated
pic4- shitty looking at the bottom
pic5- same plant other side.. just dont get it:mad:

pic1- the middle of lady4 not too bad..
pic2- this one just went into flowering.. the top is looking twisted and looks dry but i just repotted...
pic3- same one bottom looks bad and no growth at the bottom reallly... anyone have any idea??
pic4- same lady middle has growth... haha :stoned: i am def confused

the main thing that i can think of is maybe the ph up/down soultion.. mainly ph down... dont use the up often..... i get water let it sit out for atleast 48-72 hrs and then test..it is a more often than not 7.5ish.... i add ph down to around 6.5 for watering days and on feeding days I get water to 7.0 and add FF nutes.. usually bringing ph to about 5.6 so i add ph up to get solution to 6.3 and then feed.... when i flushed the runoff all came out at 6.3-6.5 any ideas about it?

Your grow looks pretty good, but I think you may be over-watering. How often do you water?

i would say on average i feed once a week and water twice everyother week adding snowstorm to one watering
