You can't mix a gallon and let it sit. Its the obvious problem...

dtw= drain to waste a typical hydroponic term to describe that the runoff from watering doesnt get returned to the main resovoir. It just drains away. Not a very sustainable approach to growing. And in my mind $$$$ right down the drain.

EWC worm castings is a great move. There are many thread here concerning ACT,AACT ,SST & a host of other botanical teas with recipes and methodologies. Master a good tea and your plants will love you for it. Key is to have adequate oxygenation so your brew doesnt go anaerobic. Here is a link for compsot or EWC teas. Tim really knows his shit.

so with tea do u use it as a base nute or would I add it on its own or ff then then ewc?

I only say this as I have seen many otherwise great peeps get frustrated with growing due to the fact they are attempting to learn on the fly. Nothing is more maddening and confusing than to be new with little to no knowledge base or experience and to have 10 people tell you to do 10 different things, all the while your crop is suffering and you dont know which way to go.

With a good heart I would recommend you step back a bit and do all of the reading you can on growing cannabis, either thru many of the great books out or peruse all the the threads here and start slow and as time goes on you will master what your doing thru the practice. "Thru the doing comes the understanding"

In closing, as you hang around a bit you will come to know who the winners are on the site and try to stick with a couple of knowledgeable peeps so you arent barraged with multiple confusing ways to go. In my mind this site used to and still does have some of the best growers/farmers out there well versed in many methods.

I just dont want to see another noob crash n burn thru frustration or being led down the road to failure and have you give up. You are doing the best you can with what you got. Read a lot and keep asking questions when you get stuck.

some more of my plants still more or less the same

Looks like they may have gotten a little too much nitrogen, what are you feeding them?
And how far along are they?

 

[tinderthumbs]

yah for sure got to much N I was getting lots of yellowing on the bottom so I tried fixing it did not really help 30 days in to flower

 

[tinderthumbs]

Ime the feeding schedule on the fox farm nutes are way too strong. After trial and error I use a medicine measuring cup with "ml" marks on the side like the ones that come with cough syrup or canna punch. I never add more than 15ml of one type of fertilizer to a gallon of water, some of the fox farm nutes are suggested at 30 ml or 6 tsp per gallon which burned my plants.

I start out with 5ml per gallon of each and then add more the next feeding if the plants didn't show any nute burn symptoms like clawing.

 

[tinderthumbs]

so im getting sick of this thinking I might give up I have done every any one has said to do and still the same bs more and more yellowing leafs and LOT of clawing (hands in the air)
