Still not enough information, but.....
I'd keep the pH down around 6.0 (5.6-6.2) in hydro.

Just like going into the doctor. You need to describe everything and in a manner that makes it easy to read for those of us who are lazy, but may have the knowledge you seek.
I would try to help, but lacking enough information, all I could do is pull something out and toss it on the table. Also, for something like this, pics are what is needed. In focus, up close, use the macro settings if you have them.
Hope That Helps, Keep the faith,
Prairie

Re: First tyme grower needs help
Really??? REALLY?? You are going to answer like that?
Would you mind giving us some respect in the area of trying to read what you are trying to communicate to us?
Carriage returns, periods, proper spelling, and punctuation are all free to use. Not saying posts needs to be like a thesis turned in for your doctorate, but come on!!!
I'm done trying to help, unless you can get a clue in getting help.

Keep in mind that our forums are accessible to the world. There are people from all walks of life, socio/econimic classes, intellectual /academic levels, etc. I definitely understand your frustration. Also keep in mind that a good majority of members and guests alike log on or visit the site high as gas prices. No one can force u to help, I' just saying.....think about it. If you were asking for help the way that was comfortable for you and then were attacked for it, how would you feel? He wasn't disrespectful, at best probably jus stoned as a Salem witch. Thanks for your contribution just take it easy bro.
JuiceMann,
to make it easier for us to help. Understand what things (acronyms such as RH or PPMs) mean b4 attempting to respond. Neith have anything to do withb the measurements of ur grow space. I suggest taking some time to read a few things like the "How To Ask For Grow Support" link that was provided in a previous post in this thread. Also when U have time I'd like to sugesst that U look through the Everything You Need To Know About Marijuana" thread. Go to grow room> eveverything you need to know about marijuana. Scroll thru the titles/table of contents and read up on he basics. Since members and administrators have taken the time to type all of this type of info up and compile it for our use, its kind of offensive when 1 out of 3 new members comes and asks the same questions without having done any reading or research on their own. I cant speak for others,but I know I spent plenty of time and money messing things up in my garden trying to learn my craft. I also learned alot from my mistakes which is how I am able to help some people around here when they need it. I also did TONS of reading as well as went to school for this. Dont cheat urself out of getting the best possible help u can get by asking every question that comes to mind without putting your best foot forward to find the iinfo on ur own 1st. If you get stuck or dont understand something u've read just ask and I'm sure u'll find staff or a member who'll be more than willing to help you out because they see that ur trying and can remember what it was like when they were at that point in the learning process. Juice, dont give up. Continue to ask questions, just try and do more for urslef b4 u do. Good luck bro,
