Hey Emerald, did you do some kind of foliar spray? I had a similar looking leafs using neem oil. Though it can be over water and heat stress, feel the soil putting your finger in it if it feels moist dont water or feed till its dry. Smart pots help too, and mixing coco powder in the soil also... Good luck happy growing!!! 🙃

@CANNASIM, Thanks so much for the recommendations. I'll look up that information right now. Are the smart pots better than the cloth pots that I'm using now?

@EmeraldReverie, hummm i see, it will live though 🙃 Its had to kill cannabis, we do a hole science of it but is a resistant plant,if you see yhe first week of my diary i coul make them go thru a damping off and i though everything was lost. Its always possible to start over if things go wrong. The coco i meant is coco coir, you can have like a fiber or powder, i prefere the powder... check the ref: http://www.growweedeasy.com/coco-coir Smart pots you have a textile one and a airpot that is full of holes, it allows more air thru the roots! Check on amazon... Good luck all the best

It does look like possible ph issues. Have you added perlite to the soil? How's the drainage with the ceramic pot? I've heard ceramic pots aren't the best but I could be wrong. Knowing a little bit more about the soil can help some too, if it's a heavy nuted soil you shouldn't of had to feed your plants till day 25-30 if it's lighter usually around day 10-15 was there a name brand?Did you get sensi grow or bloom? And what ratios did you mix it up with? If it were mine I would have done 1ml per liter of water and see how they took it As far as transplant I'd give it a go it may help her roots get the oxygen they need from the fabric pot As far the light you mentioned I've never seen it before I mars 300 would work perfect or something along those lines

@Hansbud, The soil I am using is from FoxFarm, just says potting soil: (http://foxfarmfertilizer.com/index.php/item/happy-frog-174-potting-soil.html) The ceramic pot only has one hole on the very bottom. I'm thinking I'm probably going to transplant it tomorrow into the cloth pot I mentioned. I purchased the Sensi Grow versions. I mixed both of them together at 7.5ml each in a gal of distilled water. I'll also be re configuring the cabinet to accommodate the LED light I mentioned before (7-Band 2.1 Series 180 Watt LED). I got no other income to get something else that expensive.

Looks good for a first grow I killed my first couple...I'd suggest a higher wattage light if you can afford one she looks a little hungry for lightI've used roots organics nutes before and they always burned my plants I couldn't figure it out Have you done the lift the pot and see how heavy it is for your waterings if it's super light she needs watering if it seems heavy let her be

@Hansbud, Thank you for critiquing! I was hoping someday someone would respond to my diary.I have this light waiting after the plant matures some if it isn't too far gone: http://www.htgsupply.com/products/7-band-20-180-watt-led-grow-lightThe reason why I don't use it now is that I used it for my tomato plants (young at the time and in soil) but the light seemed to have heat/light stressed them out (not really sure) because it was so powerful in my little closet so I didn't want to use it yet on this guy.The first error I did with the plant here is that I initially used alkaline water at the seedling stage. It looked like it was doing fine at first but then the leaves started to turn a very dark green and curling so I was afraid either two things: nitrogen toxicity or over watering and not getting enough oxygen to the roots. The dirt felt compacted. So I poked some holes around the root system to try air it out some.When I was trying to correct the ph levels the next week around I was using ph up & down but it was for hydro systems, not soil friendly. So today I ran out to get ph perfect sensi A&B and I watered it just now with the mixture. Waiting to see how it does later today if it perks up. It's not looking great. I'm wondering maybe there is still too much alkaline residue in the soil? But I'm afraid of trying to flush it out and end up over watering it. I would looooove some input. Thanks again for stopping on by. Going to take a picture in a moment. She's in a ceramic pot. I just got a cloth pot today but I think it's too weak for a pot transplant and I don't want to cause it more stress or should I do it anyways and just be really careful?

It's over watered how often do you water and how much?

EmeraldReveriecommentedweek 68 years ago

I was watering it one to two 1/3 cups of water every two to three days depending how moist the soil still felt. Some times it went longer because the soil still wasn't dry enough as it's health kept declining. Yesterday I found brown spots on the fan leaves and newer leaves so I think it's escalated to cal deficiency. It'll be dead by the end of this week. Can't really do anything about it to correct it at this point. It's just getting worse each day. I finely crushed some clean eggshells to put in the soil but I doubt it'll do anything at this late stage.
