Dark small leaves. Stopped growth
handamanstarted grow question 4 years ago
I've got problem with one of my plants (out of five). It's bit smaller than others. It's been going on for two weeks I'd say. Leaves are much smaller and darker than on other plants. Some of them clawing. New ones are not really growing. I'm watering when soil is soft.

Browsed through your diary...my conclusion is hydric stress, meaning in this case your substrate does not drain well (no perlite like you said). What you could do is to carefully drill holes on the side walls. Try on 2 of them first, the worst looking ones. Rise a little the temp if possible to increase perspiration . Do you have a working fan in there ? Stop watering until substrate is visibly dry or the roots will rot and plants will dry. Next time You´ll know and put drainage on the must list :-) ! The other thing You could do is add 10 medium sized earthworms per pot( considering its volume), they will increase to some extent the drainage, wich is better then nothing. If no visible changes in a week, add another 10. Hope this helps. Spirit Up !

Thanks. Both of you
I have working fan. Temperatures increased when I put there 400W HPS to 26 celsius. Since then substrate is drying lot faster (takes 3/4 days). Actually on this one affected plant it's drying out bit faster. Others are still wet when this one is dry. Also drainage is better (I mean when I put there liter of water I can see 10% draining. With others I can see no water draining at all.
I'll try to drill holes to all of them as I think it can't really hurt even on healthy looking plants. Interesting tip with earthworms. I'll try to get some but something tells me they will all die when I'll water with fertilizer.
What confuses me is that other plants don't have same problem only this one. Substrate is pretty much same. They are from very same clones. I don't remember if I did something special with this one but I can't recall. They are being watered at same time with same amount. Only the fact that substrate dries faster and water drains more is different to my thinking.

Early flower and plant too small?Multiple questions: Is this the first sign of flower on the picture of D21 from sprouting? Doesn't the plant look to small for it still? How do I promote new node growth? Is watering roughly about 1.5L per week too little for nutrient influx?

Is my plant delayed in growth?Do you think the growth is slow for its age? It's going to its 7th week and it looks pretty small to me (I'm the gf) and this is my first grow and I'm not sure if we could have done something better to make it more bushier and bigger. Any advice?

Slow growth-Any ideasHi, 2 Blue Dream+1 Bruce Banner, same day germinated, sprouted, same Light Mix BioBizz soil, same conditions. The only difference: soil for 2 Blue Dream was waiting in pots 2 months in dry space before the seeds were put in. Any ideas why are so slow and how to speed up growth.

Why is one plant lagging behind the others in growth?Does anyone have any idea why my plant no. 3 is stagnating in growth?
She had always the same amount of watering and conditions (except different medium) as the other two plants.
Yes, she is younger, but in relation to her age she seems to be developing much more slowly.

Neatly monitored dry and wet periods. PH dialed in. It still grows. Pheno 1 gets treated completely the same and does fine. Instability or damaged DNA? Any possibly to save?

What do you guys think?It's my first grow (automatic, 6 weeks old) and compared to other plants, my plant looks a bit small/ridiculous. I give her 24/7 light (I read that on guides) is that maybe too much? What's your impression of her? I use two growlights (one from above and one from the side).

Dark leaves and short/compact plant18 days from seedling. Dark and a bit rumpled/twisted leaves. Branches are coming out but they don't have much space to breathe from the big leaves. Started topping with some chicken manure pellets, too much nitrogen? Also, the 36W LED lamp is only 20 cm away.

Northern Lights Auto, quite short and bushy, fan leaves shielding light - should I defoliate?First time grower with a quite short Northern Lights Auto in week 6. The fan leaves seem to shield a lot of light from the inner leaves, also touching ground. Should I trim the fan leaves? Or should I keep them, since it already seems stressed enough for it's short life…
