to answer what I can: pic #2 is of the wilting. the wilting that you are getting is from the bottom of the plant. The reason bottom is wilting is because of lack of light penatration. What is your light setup?? Pic 3 is described as small, not really sure what you mean by that one. Pic 4 looks to me like the start of nute burn. I'm guessing you were using more than 1/4 strength on the MG. Last thing is you see how the plants are tall and skinny? This is also caused by lack of light. Believe me I can understand the budget thing but you can make quite a few improvments without taking out a loan One of the biggest issues you have is light so to touch on that real quick, you can do amazing things with CFL bulbs. I have read quite a bit of what Bob has done in the past and would be a great mentor for you, sorry I live in Hydro. Not to knock KJ at all just never read anything of his/hers.
