hey thanks for the reply.. im using 2,4foot fluorescent setups with 4 40wat tubes and a ph of 6.5, i followed the directionc of the dynagrow nutes to a T but then i started gettting spots, i tried to up the nutrients like it says for larger plants and still nuthen so i flushed them and restarted back at the regular amount for small plants(from seeds)..the roots were growing superfast and then all od a sudden stunted as well, they had a brownish color to them which i assumed was from a lack of oxygen so i replaced the airstone, the new roots are much whiter.. i also noticed that the stem on my largest plant is shedding like a snake it seems.. here are the best pics i could take.. thank u my friend for taken the time to help.

ok looks to me your growing in water right?

second ur ph is way too high for a water grow...lower the ph to 5.7 and add 1/4 nutes to the water let them rest for a week and then let me know how there doing...it seems to me i was right u have some nute burn/ w ph problems...

ph 5.7

1/4 nutes

try that
u may need more light in there as well...
srry about ur babys...

ok well i adjusted the ph to 5.7 and switched to 1/4 , and yes sir they are growing in water.. i, should i just toss these plants and start a new or can they be salvaged.. its my first tim3e growing hydroponicly by the way so i am kind of learning as i go.. i bought a hydro kit off ebay so it had directions to follow but the suggested ph was around 6.7, i dont mind starting all over but its just a waste of my white widow seeds.. thanks again bud, stuff happens so i'll get over it if they are dead...

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW.....


No need for that bro...givem a week or so to recoup.....just keep posting pics man and i'll help u figure ur problems out.

If they dont regain growth in a weeks time...I'd say trash them...BUT give them a chance.....

Here's some pics of my grow....

they look like the roots are growing much better than a week ago and new leaves keep sprouting which is encouraging but at the same time i just lossed a baby pedal at the very bottom of one,if i can just keeep them alive till flowering i will be astounded.. ill post new pics daily even though that might be overkill.. i have the time.. p.s LOVE YOUR GARDEN ..OH MY!!!

lookin better...get some hydrogin perxiode and add5 ml to the water to help fight off any root problems..wont hurt anything adds h2o to the mix good for them babies...and ty on the garden comment..i try my best...lol

hey just curious but how often should i be adding nutrients? also should i be at 1/4 strength, half or full, theirs no clear instructions if i should be adding nutrients daily or even at all so ive only been adding nutrients when i change the water,is that too little? im about to change the water soon so i wanted to make sure that from that point on i don't overdo the nutrients

oh and i switched to cfl's, i have 2 100 watt daylight and 2 100w soft white

heres how i got it as of now

Bro u really need to get a ph pen and ppm pen so u can keep u on the ppm and ph of ur water in that rez...can u get them?

also until u do u can do like i did at 1 time...there still small...so u could (when) u do ur water change bump them up to 1/2 strength and wait a week or so..let the plants get used to the new nute reg...now watch for signs of over fert by looking at the leaf points (tips) and see if u have any (new) burn...if so add some water and it should help stablize the nutes...now how big is the rez? and excatley how much do u put in when u do a water change? (gallons)? man there looking good...hope u have a bigger veg/flower area? those moms are gonna get big...peace and gl

i can deifiniteley get a ph pen and a ppm pen, i just have to find out where i can get them and i also never knew i needed them.. i fill it bAck Up with 6 gallons of water everytime,i also discovered one of the top leaves has a couple holes in the leaves out of nowhere, it definiteley happened after the switch to the cfl's, too much light maybe?
