well its been awhile, but I finally started up just shy of 2 weeks ago and every things going good so far (healthy fast growing, no problems as of yet) But i can already tell whatever was wrong with them before is gone just by the way they react to nutrients.

I got ten candy OG plants from a friend that were a decent size and i already cut clones off them, and the clones and plants are doing quite well.

so my 2 cents: if you get aphids of any kind, go scorched Earth and Bleached Earth followed by bug bombs (which ill be doing every two months since there so cheap)
