OK....I'm starting to see why I should pay $10 per bag more for Fox Farm vs too hot crap soil and both I and the ladies are loving the newly accurate PH reading for the water. I've also added cal-mag and I have to say the plants are reaching right up for light and have alot less droopy/quasi-claw look to them.
The moisture probe is useful and put the ones that I suspected of bad drainage into a one day longer than usual dry cycle to help dry out the roots and it seems to have re-started the growth process, especially on the God girls.
One God girl is still hanging on barely but I think she'll make it but won't yield well. A Lime I wasn't careful with has now been transplanted into an old pool chemical container but she is already perking up since this morning, she looks like she has claw leaves but the newest ones are reaching up. If I get anything from these units I'll be lucky.
I am having an issue with an Apollo 11 not being very green but I think a little time and accurate PH will help the plant pick up nutes.
Tha last issue I have maybe related to a heavy nuking with Neem. I have some leaves on the Querkle that looked like they had an oil sheen and they started to corkscrew; yesterday I gently washed them as best I could with normal water to get the layer off and the have starightened out almost perfectly. My question is can these oils like Neem clog the breathing pores on a leaf and cause it to die?
eastbaygordo Reviewed by eastbaygordo on . EBG Log for 2010 I've learned a few things as I've been around the block once. Hopefully this year I can prevent some of my problems by following my own rules. I think patience is the biggest asset a grower has. This year I'm growing Lime, 707 Headband, God Bud, and Purple Kush. I started on 6/1 and so far I haven't killed any plants but they do look a little stressed from going from indoor to outdoor. I was seeing some very happy ladies reaching up for light and then put them in the sunlight too long Rating: 5
