Hello!
So I ran into some issues with weather (rain/no sun) and I believe overwatering/ hot days and cold nights. 2 plants died but these girls survived! Ive been disappointed with how slow they are growing, I assume its a combination of not enough light, cold nights, not the best soil and I'm sure some other things. BUT things are looking better so I'm hoping for the best!
I fed them 1/4 dose of this stuff called "eco aminogro" from Bunnings for the first time. How often should i feed them? Also should the soil at the bottom of the pot be dry before watering? Im worried the soil isn't drying out all the way down the pot.
ANY feedback would help alot!
So these spots showed up all over my girls over night, i fed them a little over double the amount of nutrients that i had last week ( 15ml Nut/ 4L water) which i'm thinking may have been my mistake. Should i be worried? Anything i should do?
The first pic you show a large lighter green patch on the leaf. That looks like you had the PH go out of range or change dramatically. The second and third could be from a pest. My guess would be thrips or leafhoppers. Best way to combat that is to have plants that attract ladybugs or wasps. Parsley is a good one that I have had no bad side effects. Dill is good as well but my area they attract caterpillars.
Another issue... curling/twisting is appearing on her new leaves around the bud sites. the fan leaves are somewhat healthy apart from a bad whitefly infestation that I've been battling with Neem oil and some Pyrethrum spray. Any ideas? they entered flower about a week ago.
If you're growing outdoors, try getting some predatory bugs to fight the white fly. Lady bugs for example. You can get a sachet of predatory bugs from your local hydroponics store but whatever you do, you will have to wash you buds before drying to remove any neem oil residue and/or bugs left on plant. The twisting could be down to pH issues in the root zone or the environment is not quite right. Get her in an area you can raise the RH and see if she improves. Good luck
I've had a few issues these past 2 weeks. A bad whitefly infestation and now curling/twisting of the leaves around the bud sites. These girls are troopers though! I don't expect a large yield at this point due to the many problems Ive encountered but I have learnt a lot from my experiences.
Not a bad past two weeks. A few problems with pest and a few other bumps in the road that I seem to have resolved. Despite the issues Id say they are looking not too bad for a rookie. Great amount of growth during their final stretch and considerable bud growth with slightly frosted tips, which are only getting more frosty :)
