12 days old. Hydro drip system. Fed three times a day on FloraNova grow, 7-4-10. 400 watt hps. 5.9 ph, 79-80 degrees f.
This is my first grow, so I'm kinda freaking out about the twisted new growth.
Help???
Anything else you need to help diagnose her problem?IMAG0043.jpg

yo man! i dont know about the floranova too well but try putting your PH to 5.8, at 5.9 your locking out phosphorus & calcium which are vital to growth. This also maybe the cause of the deformed growth...give it a try and keep us in the loop!

She already looks better with new growth on day 14. The one leaf is still twisted, but the new growth is coming out beautifully. Will upload pics tonight.
Thanks again!!

P.S keep it at 5.8 all the way through and you shouldnt have any problems brother! maybe a little cal def in flower but just add some calmax or calmag. i just supplement my feed with 6ml of calmax every feed, im in coco by the way so its treated as hydro!

5.8 is cool but if he runs into potassium deficiency he will need to lower that just a lil more.

That is true hotshot! but potassium in Hydro only comes to effect when the PH is lowered to 5.3....which would mean if he brought it down this much all the other vital nutes would be locked out.
