Wait and see.

Why do people always do something then ask if it was ok? It would have taken 5 seconds to google it. Powdered garden lime is like $4 for a 40lb bag at every big box home improvement/garden store.

You should only flush if you have toxic salt buildup. If you didn't and you flushed, you washed out all the nutrients in the soil. Then the plant became deficient. If your soil doesn't have excellent drainage, they could be overwatered as well. You need to know the EC of the nutrient solution...

I would use some of that $500 to get a good book on indoor cultivation. That would answer your questions and serve as a reference for questions that will come in the future. CFL's are not good at light distribution. A T5 is basically as CFL stretched out into a tube. The tune allows for better...

I would use two individual lamps over one on a light mover. If you have one 1000w, why no get another instead of 2 600's?

Smaller number of larger plants. Easier to manage 3 pots vs 9. I would even consider SCROGing one plant.

re-lax. stop hovering.

keep telling yourself that its not a male. Grow it out and harvest the bounty. Plus you'll get the added bonus of pollen covering every surface and crack in your grow room. If you get busted, it will be worth it.

That is not necessarily a bad thing. Good organic soil contains bacteria and fungi that form a symbiotic relationship with the plants. However, if its visibly growing on the soil surface its a sign that your environment is out of whack for plants. Let the top few inches of soil dry out well...

Am I looking at the same pics? That plant does not look healthy. Whatvare your temps?

I think you're overdoing it with the fertilizer. If you want to go with an organic, amended soil mix then let that feed the plants. The castings, manure, guano, fish emulsion, kelp, bone & blood meal are all great amendments. Why use commercial plant food on top of that? Do your plants show...

Here is some advice: DO NOT LISTEN TO THIS GUYS ADVICE.

Start seeds in pots with quality seedling mix. No fertilizer needed until they are established. That is burn from excessive fertilizer. Keep them out of direct sunlight until they have a few sets of leaves, then gradually acclimate them to sun. I would move them into small seedling cups with...

Soil doesn't look great. Looks like it has been hot and dry. Also see what looks like mg deficiency. What is the soil composition? pH? What is the environment like? Temps/humidity? Rainfall? what have you been feeding it? How much water & how often?

Some people just aren't meant to grow plants...

Letting it sites a waste of time and decreases the dissolved oxygen levels present straight out of the tap. if you have soft water, you will likely need to supplement ca and mg but other than that it is fine.

You need to get a high velocity inline fan. The axial fan isnt doing much but blowing air around. It certainly isnt drawing air through the tent at any near optimal rate. You can lose the intake fan. Just get a proper exhaust fan and watch as it sucks the side of the tent in from the neg...

Did they do it late in flowering? This is normal and not actually a "hermie" nor is it a genetic defect or indication of bad genetics. Any seeds you have will be female and be just fine. You really cant know for sure if they were cross pollinated or self pollinated. The little pollen sacks...

If the wire is hot, it is either being overloaded or it is bad. There could be a loose connection to the plug or other damage but an extension cord is never supposed to be hot. Its an indication that something is wrong. I would stop using it immediately and go and get a 12g.

Don't get a cheap tent/equipment. You will pay for it sooner or later. $800 is a decent budget. This one is around $850 and is made up of quality components: http://www.greners.com/i/packages/grow-room-packages/grow-tent-packages/grow-room-packages-4x4.html
