planted 3 weeks ago, looking for advice

[clayboy]

I have an active drip system running 24/7.

Today I reduced the pump to it's lowest setting. I also went with 1/2 strength nutes this time around along with the upgraded lights.

Today one of my plants looks better, the other two not so good. One of them is getting brown spots on the yellow leaves.

I've got some cal mag on order from my local hydro shop, but in the meantime I picked up some epson salt. How much should I use in a 2 gallon bucket? I added 2 tsp tonight, is that good?

I added cal mag yesterday, already seeing some nice improvement. One plant is really doing well, the other two are so-so, I'm hoping they'll recover with the cal mag. The lowest leaves are really yellow on those two.

pics buddy.......nice to see how there doing..

Here's the latest, I'm down to 1 plant. I decided the other two were just too far behind to bother with. This one is really doing well though, she looks like a keeper. Cal mag is a god-send. :thumbsup:

I also got a ph pen, it's so much easier than those damn strips and the guessing game with the color chart.

I'm really looking at this first grow as a learning experience. I'm already looking forward to grow #2 so I can take what I learned and really have a killer crop.

How much longer should I veg this baby?

Hi mate,,, so u binned the other 2 did ya,, still could have been ok,, if you had the space of corse! Or where they looking a bit under the wether. Keep all ladys!!! i was temped to cut a few down but couldnt bring my self to the chop!!!
Looking better that before any way, really picked up..
How old is this little lady then from when she pop her head up???
Cus dependes on how big you want them in the end (flowering),,, I was told let them get to about half the size you want them before flowering,, I would say another 2 weeks and u will be at a foot high.. Do a little reading up, there are some real good books out there, which is good for refrence,, u know.. save your head spining with shit,, what will i do next
Post some pics of your set up intrested too see how you have set up!! (flood and drain anit it)...
Them pens are a god sent,,,, much much better,, i discorved one about 2 bottles of PH tester later,,, well pissed me off,,,
Keep me informed..greenboy over and out!!

Yeah I've got a 2 gallon drip system going, with two 42w CFL's and a batwing reflector.

I'm going to give this one at least 2 more weeks. In the last day or so her stem has really gotten thicker, she's looking pretty strong now!

Hi clayboy,,,
Are you looking at topping the lady before she goes in too flower,, Do some reading up on toping and stuff, I had six plants as u can see above (photos) I wanted to expreament i little!!! I did some read and found that topping can, not will,, give u two or three main colas,,instead of just 1.. So i cut the tops of three of the plants and thats what come of it,, the three that i cut had prob more that double the one that i hadent,,,, just a thought,, some think for ya too look in too..
Not sure if i have all ready asked but have u got a bigger light for flowering...

Over and out green boy...


Im no expert but shit am i going to top all of my plants next time the rooms up and running..
