Well i had another plant in another pot and i repotted it into soil and it died because the perlite doesnt encourage a good rootball, rather scattered roots and it was to hard to salvage every last root. I just want to finish this grow and maybe get something to smoke. My next grow i am going to use soil with some perlite but for the moment i just want to help these plants make it through the next 7 weeks and then i will ditch the hempy bucket. Iv put the pot back into the resevoir so the roots wont be so dry. I actually think it was underwatering or undernute but i will soon see.

Also since you seem to know alot about growing, what sort of soil would be simple and easy to grow in with minimal repotting and minimal water testing as i dont have ppm metre ?

Thanks for the help WH

Still having unknown plant problemsa Hi guys, Iv just started flowering my 4-5 week old plants to find a female for cloneing for smoking (not sure yet) and iv noticed that my bottom leaves were turning a rusty/bronze/brown on the tips and working its way up the leaves. Also a few little patches appearing in the middle of some lower leaves. Now the thing is i was using a bad ph tester and i was under the impression it was around 7 and when i tested it today with a digital tester it was 3.8. So iv drained the resevoir and Rating: 5
