I think because this is all so new and exciting to me I am just trying to find reasons to mess with them when I should be just letting them do what they do with as little as interference as possible, it is hard though!

Hard for all of us I think. ;-)

Hahaha I feel ya bro. It's not easy when you first start. It can be overwhelming and the amount of bad info out there is unreal. Sit back relax, keep it simple make small changes one at a time and give time in-between to see and verify results. The best thing you can do for your girls is just relax and let them do thier thing. They will tell you when they need ya.

Thank you all again! I do really have to add that I used another forum for my first grow and my experience was pretty awful with some bright spots few and far between. The people here seem a little more... sane.

Lol i was MichiganMedGrower there for years. Then i started trolling Buck and the politics dicks back. Then i started pointing out the specific cencoring and unfair banning practices rollie does.

Now i am only here. ;-)


I spent a minute on that fraud rm3’s private site too. I banned myself from that mess of fantasy grow info.

They do have some decent and knowledgeable growers but the bro science is strong as a whole and I go there on Sunday mornings instead of reading the comics now. As @MIMedGrower said the politics are interesting to say the least

That is hilarious! I only check back now to see what type of crazy stuff I can read, Buck takes the crazy cake.

Yeah i admit i trolled him back hard for fun. But something is way more wrong than me if you do it for a decade every day and night.

You need a hilarious jellyfish icon @Jelimafish

Mrs med grower just suggested the rasta jellyfish in Shark Tales. :-)

I will need to keep looking but this works for now lol

Tell her thank you for the suggestion! So much better then anything I could think of

I will.

So I just checked on them and I have to say moving the light a bit and watering correctly has made a pretty big difference. To my inexperienced eye they are looking better and better. Now I have another noob question, when should I flip to flower? They are only 4 weeks old but since my tent is only 48" I don't want them getting too tall on me. They are currently sitting at 9" tall, should I give them another week or so until they hit 12" or should I flip now to avoid light/burn bleaching later?

Figure the plants will grow double the size from flip.

hmm Maybe I better flip this week. If they double now that gives me 18" of plant and 10" for the pot which will leave me with about 16" between the tops and the light. Thank you!

So last night they go watered again and I lowered the lights a bit since they just started 12/12. Today they look probably the best they have, starting to think all of my issues may have been PH Related.

From my humble experience most issues are either pH related or from over-watering. Glad they're doing better!

What PH are you feeding at?
Use 6.5 in ffof for best results.

There's plenty of everything in the soil but you're likely locking some things out; do a slurry test & post results

Thanks! I am fairly certain mine was cause by both, now that I am not watering small amounts daily and just waiting for it to dry out is becoming easier and easier to judge when they are thirsty. After 48 hours with no water they were looking a little droopy and after 72 they almost resembled over watered plants. I am still going to lift the pots to be certain but they definitely show when they need something.
