I've thought about tmv before but I've brought all new equipment and cleaned the room throughout with all kinds of chemicals and steam. Still happens. I know it's not overwatering. I give 2 litres every 2 to 3 days and I've opened my tent twice in last fortnight to drooping plants.
I've now got this new thing happening. One of the plants looks fine the other clone looks like it's 8 weeks into flower. Leaves going yellow fast. Hairs turning brown. Then both plants everyday are loosing leaves but its like nothing I've seen before. The leaves turn brown crispy and fall off in the space of 24hrs I will upload pics soon of what I've picked off tonight. Every day I'm getting a handful of both plants. Oh yeah grapefruit kept stretching and burned under the light so I binned it. No patients for it.
Please bare in mind I grew for years in soil and same water with no problems, this has been happening only for last 2 or 3 year's.

I've had similar problems, and made the change to coco. I get it started with bottled water, and ween to tap a couple weeks into veg, so I don't have to buy much at all. This was the end of all my problems, and haven't looked back for a couple years now. Just ph down and it seems to forgive all...mold, bugs, whatever, and the roots just explode in it. I run Canna a&b, very little Calmag/veg, pinch of epsom/gal in flower, PK 13/4 week 2, then Overdrive late. Nice, easy, and lazy...more time for boob tube...:biggrin: good luck brother

What? Over? Did you say 'over'? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!...

ganjy,
Did you try the potato test for Root Aphids? Cut 1" thick slices of raw potato and lay them on he soil surface. Check bottom sides of potatoes daily for 10 days. Use magnifying glass. They're small.

As far as quitting goes. You have said the bud quality and yield is good. Even if you can't figure out, wouldn't you rather smoke your own than pay for other bud that's been sprayed with who knows what? Good luck. -granger

ph numbers are affected by drainage.hugh pot drains slower,more buffering capacity for ph numbers,smaller pots fast drainage can run lower ph.big pot cn handle ph a little in higher range.example stacked rock wool blocks 1foot byx 1ft..8 blocks stacked on top of each other use a water ph 7.4..bcause of how long it takes that to drain,compared to one block drawing.just a example.thats just basics.just saying on the watering...moon/tip tap method

Well guys I'm about to end week 5 of flower and buds are growing. I'm trying to give more water more often but I've been caught out by drooping plants once more. It's the warm days that catch me out.
Other than that things are looking better.
I reckon I was letting them get a bit too dry so I I've started watering everyday.
Buds are growing and stink of cheesey goodness. The fan leaves look a little bad bud buds are healthy.

These clones go 10plus weeks so I've got at least another 4-5 weeks to go..... I think.
These look set to be the biggest yield I've taken from plants individually witch I'm surprised about because I haven't been paying as much care as I normally do.
I'm no longer worries.... I get healthy buds after all.
5 weeks 2 plants in 1.5x1.5 tent 600w

Here's something to ponder, this plant is growing in back yard. I'm using the same tap water but Im not ph adjusting.
It's never seen a drop of calmag .
I'm using same soil as indoor plants but I'm using biobizz on this plant. Just thee veg feed at moment.
Why do my indoor plants look so messed up? Maybe I should just go back to not ph adjusting my indoor plants, after all I didn't for the first couple of years I grew and them plants were fine as well.
