This week was nerve wracking for me ran into my first issues. Almost right after I posted last week, the plant got really droopy and wilted and the lower leaves started turning yellow. Wasn’t sure what was wrong, first I thought I underwatered it, because it just started drinking a lot faster. I didn’t know if the pot was too small maybe and it needed to be transplanted. In the end, I gave it a couple good waterings, and started feeding it nutrients for the first time and today it’s finally seemed to perk back up and be good. The photos posted are from yesterday morning. Looking better today. Going to defoliate the damaged lower leaves this week and will need to re-pot it soon I think. Used General Organics Bio-Thrive Grow from their Go Box.

Grow Questions

FatCobrastarted grow question 4 years ago
Ok, first real issue. The plant today is starting to wilt considerably and the lower leaves have started to turn yellowish green. I just watered it this morning and it’s looking worse than it did earlier. What could be causing this? I haven’t started feeding yet. Soil depleted?
Solved
Leaves. Wilting

Wilting might be due to some water damage, take off the plastic covering and aerate the soil. Water when the top 5cm/2inches are dry with at least 20-30% of the water as runoff. Fertilizing should usually start when the first set of leaves have fully developed (start-mid week 2 from seed normally) so I would start giving her some nutrients! If you're having humidity issues and the humidifier isn't enough then try hanging a warm damp towel in the grow space to try and increase it. Hope this helps! Good luck and happy growing :)

Just to give a bit more info here: I am using FoxFarms Happy Frog soil. I had tried several other plants before this and none of them made it out of the seedling stage. With those failures I was using FoxFarms Ocean Forest soil and so I swapped out the soil just in case that was it and put a ceram wrap covering over the pot to trap moisture in. I don’t know what to do about the humidity when I get out of this propagation stage. So far it’s going great this time around, I will take any tips you got. When to top it, when to start training it, humidity solutions, as you may see in the photo I have some cups and bowls in the tent I fill them with water to try and evaporate some moisture in their, I spray down the walls. Nothings working.

@FatCobra, I had a "portable" one for the 60x60 but every 5 hours I had to put it back in charge ... then I gave up and the humidity adjusts itself when I water, I no longer use the dehumidifier. If the leaves seem dry, I spray a little water with the nebulizer, otherwise don't worry too much. Check maybe in flowering that it does not rise too high to avoid the risk of mold :)

@DreamIT, hey man, thanks for responding. So I looked into humidifiers. The problem I’m having is that my tent is only 2x2x4 even small ultrasound humidifiers seem to be all pretty big and for much larger spaces. The ceram wrap covering is working for now but I’m concerned about what will happen when the plant becomes too big for that.

@FatCobra, Hello. I hope the translation doesn't distort the words too much. The recommended humidity values in the vegetative phase are around 70%, in flowering around 55/60. If you have no way to buy an ultra sound humidifier, wet the soil more often (not with more water, only more often, when you see the surface begin to dry. Glasses of water are also fine, the important thing is that the air is not excessively dry.) I do not know that soil, but in the early stages of life and growth, a soil that is not too fertilized is recommended, otherwise the taproot will "burn" even before it comes out of the seed. I hope I was helpful 😊

How are you finding the MARS lights brother? I'm considering shelling out €400 for the SP3000. It's a lot of money, so I want to be sure they're good

GuerrillaNo_4commented4 years ago
@FatCobra, yeah, I think I'll just bite the bullet and get it. Everyone says they're really good. You're right too, if I buy cheaper lights I'll be unhappy in no time and end up buying it anyway 😂
FatCobra
FatCobracommented4 years ago
@GuerrillaNo_4, the light is working great. I would definitely buy Mars again. When I get some more space I plan on getting a bigger tent and will be getting larger MARS lights at that time probably because now I know it works. I’ve gotten cheap leds before that don’t work it sucks.
