word, and hey, I, being a dipshit, went out and bought litmus papers to test the pH.. and I guess they kind of work, but they're impractical for testing the pH of anything non-liquid, like soil...

so now, what im looking in to, and i would reccomend to you, are these combination pH/PPM/TEMP meter.. digital ones.. they're a little pricey, but ebay has them for decent prices... and yeah, be careful with that light

yeah bro, i asked about ph because without pics its very hard to tell you whats going on, ph is one of the most basic issues, so if we start basic and eliminate stuff early, when you get pics up we can diagnose better.

how far away is your light?

Yeah im going to get my brothers digi camera after work and take some good pics. Light is around 2 feet or so from plants. And the temp at where the plants are (like gauge is sitting right next to plant) stays around 72-78... going to try to snag a fan today as well. A couple of them are looking really nice though :D
