Yeah a lot of those are still pretty small, give them time to get good roots and you'll see water and nutes stabilize a bit... ;)

Good looking clones. I have never tried clipping the tips of the leaves like that and have always meant to ask people why they do it but never got around to it.

By clipping the ends of the leaves it reduces transpiration so they don't lose as much water while trying to root and you can fit more, larger, clones closer together. ;)

I just do it because it makes them look better :P Lol j/k, what SME said is 100% why I clip the ends.

Just a quick update, gave them a small feeding of a combined 6L of water for all 12. The orgional 3 had a combined amount of 3L, spiderman and beast (blueberry's) each got 750mL and the hulk got 500mL. The remaining 3L was divide between the smaller 9, roughly 300mL each.

Gave them a 1/2 strength mix of Sensi Grow A + B 12mL each part, 6mL of voodoo juice, piranha, sensi Cal Mg mix for grow, and B-52 each.

After the last feeding of straight water and no change in look, leads me to believe that the plants are suffering from a nitrogen deficiency issue. Seems to be that the Mazar are getting effected more so then the blueberry. This would make sence as I have heard that indica plants are effected differently then sativa under LED. Been pretty interesting to see the impact.

Since everything looks the same as a few days ago no need to repeat pic's. I will update them in a few days once there is some change.

I had to look at a can of soda-pop (350ml = 12fl oz) to figure out how much 300ml was. :P

It's a little hard to see anything wrong based on the LED-off pics (impossible with LED on) so I'm not sure what the issue is, let alone the cure. I'm sure you'll get it sorted out soon though... ;)

Yeah it makes things look funny under that light. I will have to shut them off for a minute next time I take a picture. I keep forgetting when I snap a shot or two.

I hope AB's grow is going OK, I thought he was just out for the holidays but it's been a while since he updated his grow. I'm interested in how his GS lights perform I hope everything is well...
