These 3 guys will start their 4th week thrusday. I noticed last week they had there bottom leafs start to turn yellow. They all sprouted in 1 cup. Before they growed to big and tangle themselves i transplanted them to the pots their in now. They we're always in organic jeffy soil but i was just giving them faucet water till i started to see yellow on bottom leaves just around edge of leaf. Started boiling water for them to give since then..also went out and bought nurts added both drops to gallon water gave it to all 3 plants. Their def growin slow. I have fox soil i bought also but didnt want to transfer them again so soon. Any tips or advice. I would luv being since its my 1st time growin plus i just moved here to oahu hawaii 😎😎
after a week of transplanted in fox farm ocean soil. They're lookin way better. Plus i was not ph testin tapwater and addin nutes. Stopped boilin water and started buyin bottle gallons. I finally got a ph tester kit checked tapwater and it was green blue high i lowered it to neutral. I even bought cal/mag. So i added cal/mag plus foxfarm big grow and big bloom tested it again and it was still fine..my question is since im using fox farm soil do i need to still add nutes or wait till plants uses up soil?
I started lookin today and saw this. Im thinkin these 3 plants mite be all males or hemes. They were all seeds from a zip that sprouted. But im thinkin whats the odds all 3 are males. Is it because the 1st month and week or so of its life i was giving 12/12 light outside not knowin. Is that why? What should i do?

They look like female to me, so don't worry. Starting seeds in 12/12 light schedule will not make seeds go male or hermy, so don't worry about that. And go ahead and switch if you want, nothing wrong with doing it early.
So my light bill came in and i cannot afford to grow this plants in 18/6 no more. Im hoping they vegd enough i gotta do 12/12 and fig this out. No other way. All together 13 plants these 3 are the oldest tho. What u guys think i will pull? Or will anything happen. I just lst them last week. Just 2 outta 3 tho
After a week i see a little of magic starting. I was nervous at firfirsfirfirst thinkin all 3 of them were males. Lookin good so far. 1st time grower. 1st time everything
Another week in the books. Im still so amazed by all of this. Any suggestions or comments or some pointers ? On day 72 now. Starting the 3rd week now on this 12/12.
Just been giving them water this past week.. any day now they will be ready. cant wait to smoke my 1st grown .its gonna be so fresh. So i just cut and hang for 7-10dayz?
I had 3 plants in the beginning bag seeds. It was also my 1st grow ever. I def waited to long to cut her. Im learning tho so its cool. Already on my next crop
I suggest you check and adjust the pH as the first step. You have a nutrient deficiency or excess of something, both of which could be pH related if you didn’t overload the soil with nutes.
Boiling is fine and probably not necessary. Do you drink the tap water? Exposure to light and air for a full day allows the chlorine to dissipate, if you want to skip the boil. 2.5 gallon water bottles with handles are great for this purpose. Buy the water once and refill with tap. Do not cap the bottle tightly after filling .
This is fixable so don’t panic. I have friends in Hilo whose outdoor grows are lush. You’ll get there also. Aloha
@IslandP,
You have two issues
I hadn’t noticed the yellowing, which is likely over watering. The rust colored leaves are either deficiency or toxicity, and looks like phosphorous deficiency, and are likely linked to pH. Don’t add nutes until you address pH! Diagnose your plants with this helpful link

pH meters are convenient but require calibration to maintain accuracy. A cheap swimming pool test kit will give accurate pH readings. That only works if the water remains clear- nutrients that discolor it will make readings difficult or impossible. Aloha
@growdoctordc, yea i just moved here from nyc..i make 2 months this week here. I dont really drink tap water anyways i got a brita. I was always using tapwater for plants till i sae 1st bottom leaves turn yellow. So i started boiling water let it cool down then give to them. Im ordering a ph n ppm meter with some cal/mag and ph ups and downs from amazon. So lets see
I don’t think boiling is needed. It kills micros that you may want it the water, and it must be a lot of work. Why not Brita the plant water too? Best of luck, haole wahine
Kind of looks like magnesium deficiency to me, but PH issues and root problems can show signs of almost anything.... If you'd like to avoid having to worry about testing your PH, I'd invest in some advanced nutrients PH perfect technology nutrients. The simplest choice is the Grow, Micro & Bloom set "pretty much" covers it all
@Kirr38, yea i got nutes from fox farm. Big grow n bloom. I was feeding just 2x a week and found out i should give str8 water in between feeds. I also picked up fox soil gonna transplant later today
@IslandP . plants turn hermie if they have stress. to hot, to much light , wrong conditions..........
its a nice thing from mother nature......before she /he dies they will reproduce....
its your descision to let them grow and have seeds or to cut them down. hope your next grow will be more like your expectations are
Our growdocterdc is a good one. i got another for your pale girls.Your girls looking muuuuch better nearly healthy. use calcium and magnesium for kicking the photosythesis. but only if the basics are well (ph+ec) i think calmag will fit .You can buy liquid products. look at the bottle some got to much nitrogen in it.. i cant see it in the pictures if they are still pale. and only usig it if they are pale. Like always less is more
@IslandP, i probably wouldn t take these leaves off. I'm not convinced theres a lot of evidence for defoliation. Many people dont realise this but defoliation is HST - might stress your plant out pile on weeks extra on the harvest... Plus the logic behind it is tenuous : how is removing leaves improving photosynthesis again? Anyway my approach is that in the grow box light gets reflected enough that even when you think some are shading the truth is there s not much shade when the door is closed outdoors the most important is the 1/4 turn everyday so it gets the sun evenly and nicely.... good luck !
