1st timer, w/Hydroton, could use a little help...

pics didn't work, i'll get some that will fit in a few hours.

in the mean time, this is what i got these seeds from, collected them over the last 6 months or so...

Some purple strain, I figured they were worth planting. Anyone know what it could be?

Day 20 from seeds. Here are some pics from this morning. They're starting to stink, really musky if you put your nose up to the top of the plant. Its like the skunk smell without the sweetness, just the pungent odor. One of them is growing a lot slower than the others, pic 4, i think it got nute burn during the 1st couple weeks. Is this plant going to be ok?

Also, they're getting a little droopy throughout the day and then the perk back up during the dark period. Is this normal?

I have the temp in the box 76-77 with the light on and 65-66 in the dark.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how I should grow these plants (LST, scrog, etc)? I only have about 4 feet from the pot to the light at its max height. the tallest one is about 6 inches, so I think I have to decide sometime soon.

Thanks for the help so far, has made a huge difference in my peace of mind...

ph is righ around 6, there is an oscillating fan in there, no I don't spray them in the light, I've only sprayed them twice, both times with some thrive alive B1 green, right when the light goes off, they always respond well to this.

How often can I foliar feed them? they always seem to perk up and grow really fast after I do this but I don't want to burn them with too much nutes.

[palerider7777]

u can spray them down at the end of the light cycle and i just have ph'd water with sum superthrive and then 1/4 of the 3 part nutes i have'nt burnt anything with that mix just make sure it's only a 1/4 of what it says to put but about a week b4 flower cycle i stoped spraying them down.i keep my ph at 5.5 6 i think is a lil high but i think sum do

[TMusic]

should I spray them every day?

[palerider7777]

i was doing it every other day

[TMusic]

ok, I'll give it a try.

Is it ok if they get a little droopy before the light goes off and perk up during the dark time? They've been doing this a lot.
