    well my clones aren't looking so great

    there are three clones one white widow, one mr nice guy, and an afgahni, been vegin them while growing lowryders at 24/7 about week 6, the lowryders are doing very well but the clones i have are getting really yellow and only growing small new growths here and there, i don't have a camera but let me try to discribe what's happening. the tops big fan leaves, of the plants are turning bright yellow all of the leaf. fed the first time at about week 4, and then 2 weeks later at about 1/4 strength the labeled recommended of 15-20-15.
    i'm also fighting spider mites that came w/ the clones. they are growing under a 1000w hps, in MG. i know people don't like MG but that's all i had and the lowryders are loving the stuff, so either they need more nutes which i've done and it didn't seem to help, or they maybe need repotted. the only thing i haven't done is check the ph of the water but i've been using distilled water so i didn't think that would do any harm. i'm going to go get some lady bugs to help w/ the spider mites but i need some help, planned on flowering these three clones after the lowryders were done at 12/12........any help will be appreciated thanks in advance

    man 18 views and no suggestions? replanted the clones mentioned above and a day later they already look better, maybe just rootbound i hope!

    your yellow leaves and sluggishness may be due to over-watering, and perhaps poor drainage ... Miracle-Gro is fine for a chemical fertilizer, Ive successfully used it, and nothing else, for over 25 years ... what gives it the bad name is the Miracle-Gro SOIL ... it has 'time-release' chemical 'pills' in it, that take away your ability to control the Ph, etc ... next time, just use a good potting soil, and feed by hand ... everybody usually over-fertilizes anyway ... (before the tree-huggers start squealing, I am gradually sliding over to the organic-nutes, will be using them for blooming soon, for the first time) ... :smokin:

    thanks for the info... the yellowing leaves are being replaces by nice green babies, on all three plants since replanting them in 5 gallon buckets with drainage holes cut and extra perilite added(some say peralite helps against over watering), how long should i wait now replanted before blooming them, or should i wait untill the whole plant has regrown it's green leaves back?

    clones are looking great since repotting, the new growth from the replanting is amazing, give the roots room and they'll grow i guess, good stuff....
