I did purchase a ph test kit and I tested my Acadia water that I have been using since seedling stage and I came up with a ph of 6.5, now that was by itself without any nutes added to it.

Now the next time I feed my plant with nutes should I test the ph from the run off I get from my plants? And does anyone know the difference between distilled water and Spring Water?

I posted more pictures for you guys sorry about the first ones. Can anyone tell me what strain this is? This was from bag seed. Also any idea on how long the flower period is, I am on week 5 of flowering. You guys rock!

Hi mkgmeash1223

:thumbsup: Great on getting the PH kit!!!

On testing PH, mix your nutes as usual then take a sample of the mix in the vial provided, test it, adjust ph up or down as needed. (Probably Up)

To test soil PH, adjust your plain water to PH 7.0. pour into your soil and catch the first drippings that drain out. Test runoff, this is near your soil PH

Spring Water comes from a spring and contains minerals and salts.

Distilled Water is water that has been distilled, "Evaporated then cooled back into a liquid" The cooled water no longer has minerals or salts in it, pure H2O.

Not to be confused with RO water, but similar.

Good Luck!!!!

Your plant looks pretty good to me!!
Dreadscale Reviewed by Dreadscale on . FLOWERING PLANT WITH BOTTOM YELLOW LEAVES AND BROWN RUST SPOTS??? WTF Hello to everyone, I am a newbie and this happens to be my very first grow. My first grow has been quite successful believe it or not until I hit my 5th week into flowering. The Problem I am having is my bottom leaves (including my fan leaves)have started turning yellow and their are some weird rust colored spots starting. They aren't very defined circled colored spots though. I have pictures feel free to take a peek. It seems to take over the leave until it sucks it dry. However this is Rating: 5
