I was looking at your responses and this is going to sound crazy but did you go from a small say 2-4 inch rock wool cube to a five gallon bucket. What seems to work best is to increase the amount of medium by about double when you transplant. I go from a 2 in rock wool cube to a sixteen oz cup then to a 2-3 gallon pot 1-2 weeks before flowering. This allows the plant to control its root environment. 5 days between waterings is a long time for the soil to be staying wet. Alot of times if the pot is too large a sogy layer remains in the bottom in wich the roots wont penetrate. But at this point in your current grow letting the soil dry a bit between waterings is the right thing to do.

ya I did. Clinic gave it to me in a small rockwall cube and i went right from that to the 5 gallon bucket. So you think for the next ones i should do 3 gallon pot and move slower?

Yes I do. Right now I have a lot of monsters and they are in 3 galon pots. I remeber being told the size of the pot doesnt really limit the size of the plant and thinking bullshit. & years later I know that was true. I was making growing more difficult than it needed to be. What I do can be listed in a paragraph, its easy and effective. Being that I have to retire in 14 months I will give all my methods to whoever wants them. Even better check out heath robinsons threads at ***** that guy is a pro man.

hey og,

really appreciate all your help to this point. Gonna take some new pics in about an hour and will post them for you.

They are gonna need to be fed tonight, I assume it should just be water and maybe some Rhizotonic but thought you might be able to provide some insight after you see the pics

NEW PICS ARE UP IN MY GALLERY

Labeled with todays date. Gotta feed tonight. Last 2 feedings, as you know, have been with Grow Big and Big Bloom. They are way behind on Beastie Bloomz but I haven't added it because of the issue.

Thanks for any help

Well my cheap rapid test moisture meter is right at three so I'm gonna hold off on feeding them tonight in hopes that they will suck up all the neuts from the last feeding. Tomorrow night I'll definitely need to feed them though.

alright well tonights the night for another feeding. Read over the thread again and you reccomended feeding every other watering even with the sickness, so I imagine i should just feed them tap water since they got ferts the last 2 feedings.

Ok so I ended up giving them 3 gallons total as usual, 3/4ths of which was tap, 1/4th being filtered water.

In addition I gave them 1/4 tsp of Epsom salt and 1/4 tsp of grow big. If I'm awake when the lights go off I'll take some pictures.

Whats frustrating is the tops of the plants look so nice especially the Bubba.

keep in mind when viewing the next set of pictures that i had to cut off about 15 leaves so it might look better then it actually is.
