you can get cheap PH meter strips for like $10...ask the guy at the hydro store if he has a spare meter you can use. most of them do, i used one from the store after my cheap $30 meter broke. guy was cool as shit, i bought a good meter the first week after i harvested.
your plan sounds great. but i would get those paper strip meters if you cant afford anything else. its better than nothing, then at least you have a starting point that you can go from.
also, can you get a pic of the entire plant. maybe your problem isnt as bad as these leaves make it look. obviously this is your first run and youre broke, so you just need to get by and make a little cash to upgrade your setup and youre on your way to some really nice dank in the future
i have some pool test strips, the PH is lower than 7. i know this much and the PPM is lower than 500, its just hard to tell. the strips only go to 7.0 and the color isnt even close to seven.
i really appreciate all the input guys.
heres a full picture of her... cant really see much.
i can take some more pics but itll be after three when my lights come on. or i guess i can snap some in the dark. might show up better.

thats good enough. its budding fairly well, you just need to up the nutes a tad. im sure its a cal def, so just add some cal mag and everything will sort itself out. i wouldnt change anything but the cal mag and see how it goes.
once you start changing 2-3 thing at time, you run into really big problems. so make a single change, and see if it helps or if it makes the problem worse. if it helps, then youre all set. if its worse, then obviously you have a dif issue
i would super crop that main stem too so you get a more even canopy, but thats just me...it will fatten up that kola and allow the lower kolas to come up towards the light
Everybody just hold dthe fuck on. I hope you haven't done anything yet.
You have FloraNova, which is two part. GH Flora is 3 part. Do not add CalMag.
j wizzle, more reading and less typing for a bit buddy. No offense, not trying to be a dick, but if this guy follows your advice, he is going to fuck up his plants. Not trying to be a dick, only help someone take care of a problem.
Bad idea to supercrop the biggest cola on the plant at this point in flower too.
i flushed a few days ago with just tap water and havent done anything to them since. they dont seem to be getting any better.
the guy has a PPM of 500 4 weeks into flowering and youre telling him he has a Cal def from lockout....come on now.....he is lacking in nutes, its as simple as that...
go mix 3 part or 2 part GH with RO and tell me your PPMs are going to be less than 700...
