og kush, 5 weeks in and I flushed them 12 days ago and they are still wet! They had a soil ph problem so I flushed to bring the ph of the promix to 6.5. The vanilla kush look like they are 1 2 weeks into flower they are so far behind. I will hafto chopp them to free up space. shit! I could probably go another week wthout feeding them. If I re-pt them, they will get shocked even more so I dont know if I want to do that.

Any ideas on how to solve the problem would be cool, thanks

Make sure you have proper ventilation and adequate air turbulence. More air movement will increase evaporation from medium but can decrease humidity in grow room.

^ What he said, with emphasis on "reduce your humidity" if that's high. The plant should be doing this work for you, but cannot if the humidity gradient (from plant to air) is too shallow. cn

I don't grow much in pots, only for clones and outdoors but I'm sure you could poke holes into your pot, if possible, and that will increase airflow & evaporation in the medium. Don't go overboard with it though.

Thats so funny you should mention punching holes in the pots, I just took my grinder to a old screwdriver and turned it into a shank and stabbed about 30 holes in each pot. So about 3 holes on every second flat spot on the soft pots. good idea though, dev!
Crossing fingers cause these things need more feed.
