    added a little CalMag this morning, no nuets. Can definitely see leaves are struggling on the front GG plant.
    Hopefully we can bounce along for a few more weeks. End of wk6 now.

    LOL! Great comparison!! So, given the fact I am unable to test my water/runoff for PH and I should have CalMag tomorrow, any opinions on how I should apply it? At this point I didn't plan on adding any nuets for a week or so. Should I flush again and finish with the CalMag solution?
    I'm beginning to wonder if I didn't over due it with the nuets, I am using fox farms ocean forest soil. TIA for any opinions.
    All the best, GS
    I also was able to sneak my light up another 1 1/2", so hopefully that will help a little as well.

    Very nice photos, GS! I wouldn't say bud porn; I'd say Vermeer buds in the light.

    I'll have to add a test kit to my list for the next go around. Jeez, I stopped at 4 different stores, no calmag, so I ordered some from Amazon. Figured it couldn't hurt(to much) to go ahead and give it a try. The problem could be a result of any number of things mentioned above and we can add 3 gal containers to the list. I'm sure the roots are packed pretty tight. Will cross my fingers and hope we can limp to the finish line. The other 2 look fine. Of course you may have notice the lack of pictures of the white widow, beautiful on the top third, naked stems on the lower 2/3rds. Hoping she doesn't collapse over from the top weight.
    Damn, looks like you have your hands full getting ready for the summer season!

    I filled my grow room from front to back and side to side everything looked healthy on top but when I started to pull them out I found dead or dieing branches from not enough light so thing do happen

    I went ahead and flushed the GG, probably got a gallon out the bottom, we'll see.
    Here's and attempt at a pic of the leaves, pic of the GG4 and the blue widow (since I was able to pull them out)

    We learn to fine tune our grow envirnmnt by the mistakes we make: you gotta be able to move or get to all plants or u can run into all kind of trouble. Tou can get mold from stagnant environmnt.

    And make sure tou have proper setup for runoff. You want thebest bud u can grow and this is how we do it.

    alltatup At least it is the plant closest to the door, hopefully I can untangle without damage and pull her out for a good flushing.
    And...I don't water with much runoff as well, another commandment broken I'm sure. It would be difficult to empty the saucers of the excess.
    But will flush the hell out of the GG. Should I go ahead and just flush now before getting calmag?
    TIA

    GreenState If you've been feeding your plants correctly, you probably need to FLUSH them well before adding more nutes. pH checking is one of the 10 commandments of growing.

    Thanks for the comments guys. Yes, getting old sucks, as I've been out already snowblowing my way out the driveway--heavy stuff!
    So, I have yellowing of the top leaves on my GG4, edges turning up some. To hot, to much light, to many built up nuets, a deficiency? Haven't tested my PH...KISS grow.
    Going to try and get some cal-mag tomorrow morning and give it a shot. Also try and get my light up a little, I'm about out of overhead room for sure.
    Very funny LTG! LOL, I hear you.
    It's especially hard for me, my plants are less than 10 ft from my comfy recliner(g), I can turn my head and see them.
