What's up brothers and sister's. This is my last resort after surfing numerous journals after journals. I've found similar problems, but it seems to still be an issues. I've flush, foliar feed, etc but its been two weeks and still having issue's. Can anyone please give me some advice? Medium is happy frog cut with 25% perlite. Light is T5 full spectrum 54w x 8 bulbs. Sitting about a foot away from the bulb. City water that's been siting out for a week. Room temp is always 72degree 24hr light with 45% humidity. Its been in veg for about 4 weeks from a clone. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.IMG_20150110_082859423_HDR.jpg

Um......is there a question in there? I'm looking at your picture and am not seeing anything that should be a concern.

I've been growing Blue Dream (clone only version) since Sept and other than the clones take over 2 weeks to root, it's a pretty easy plant to grow.....and the smoke is top-notch!

Hi lilroach. There's yellowish shribble like leaves on the new growth. It does not look healthy plus look at the purple stem. What do you think the issue is?

I will try the salt and foliar feed and see what happens.

I've always veg with 24 vs the 18/6 cycle. I had good results with both so it is just preference. I would not veg under 24 hrs if I was using a high pressure sodium light.
there is literally 0 benefit to keeping the lights on 24/7. there is a chance of harm though. and you're definitely shortening the life of your equipment. you really need to be doing 18/6.

I know Uncle Ben goes with 20/4 veg cycle. I run it that way at times and honestly don't see much different than 18/6. CCC is right about shortening the life of your bulbs and such.... for no real benefit and possible detriment to your plants.

There's many that feel that a plant does it's growing above the soil during lights-on and under the soil (root development) during lights-off.

It's a theory.

Well, I add the salt since to the leaves since that was my main issue. I've been on 24 for years and it work wonders for me. As stated above, I've also grew under 18/6 and had great success. Once Sumner hits, I might switch to 18/6 to reduce heat but for now...24 hrs it is. Thanks for all of your replys. It is much appreciated.

i'm curious, why do you choose 24/0 over 18/6? what's the difference?
