Enthusiast with a few questions...

[Weedhound]

got a link to your grow?

[Weedhound]

also to answer your questions.....too MUCH ph up or down can mess up your ratios but that's fairly rare unless you don't change your res often enough.....you DO add ppms to your nute solution with ph adjusters. One reason why nute balances and/or changes are import imo.

Thanks Weedhound, I did start with some bad stuff second hand that I thought would do the trick and using the sodium based products I got from pool chemicals and sulfuric based epsom salt alone did not help me much in the beginning. Those just made my water too high. I don't have much to go by but I try to learn from the dumb stuff. Now I use proper AN PhDown and Fox Farms ferts which have the magnesium sulfates already present.

I like to change my res. once a week. 3 gallons circulating for two plants. That will eventually need improving too. Step by step this time around until I get it right.

You need to up your nute levels. Those plants (looking very nice btw structurally) look like they are too light on N.

Hmm... I waited a week and a half after switching the lights before I changed to bloom ferts. They have always been very bushy little plants. There is so much light for them I thought they were compact because of the small space they are in and a 400watter hps. What are your suggestions for upping the N? I have some 12-6-6 Age Old Grow I no longer use. How much N do they need for flower or better yet what is a good mix for this week 7?

All's well pulled one male so that leaves one female for this grow. Let us pray I make it all the way! Out of three plants one went to floros and out of the two remaining for this grow I pulled the male today, leaving me one nice bushy female.
