Why are the tips of my leaves pointing straight down?
H4NshotFirst
started grow question 5y ago
Hello all! The leaves on one of my girls has leaves that are pointing straight down. I've been using nutes every other watering, and only about a third to just under half of the recommended amount.

I think tips pointing down is overwatering. Let her dry out before watering and see if she improves. Good luck and happy growing.

Maybe cut down on the watering and let the soil dry out and stop giving nuts for a week or so and see how they respond

clawed leaves.. possibly from wind burn
I windburned one of plants quite a lot (possibly others too). It seemed to me as stunded. After 7 days and topping some leaves are still clawed down (middle plant on pictures). Typically the big fan leaves. I wonder if there could be other reason for this and if I can do anything

Ok so I have this big fan leaf showing issues. The last 2 pictures of this week are of this leaf. The leaf is about halfway up the plant and no other leaves are showing same issue. To me it looks like N deficiency, but I have N excessive on the top of plant with dark clawing tips

Droopy Plant
Having a problem with droopy leaves on my largest plant.... the roots are growing out the bottom so I think it may be time to transplant but I'm afraid to move it until I can address the leaf drooping. Any suggestions or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

How can I recover from nutrient lock and bad pH soil. I never pH my water and found out that my runoff is now pH 7.5. I am not able to lower my soil pH.
What else can I do to recover from bad pH watering habit and nutrient lock for my two months old photoperiod. Already flushed the plant, has been about 7 days and it still doesn't seem to look promising. 7 days since flushing I watered with compose tea (700ppm / pH 6.0) once.

Yellowing leaves, some twisting, early in veg?
Could anyone help me diagnose this plant. Idk if it’s nitro defic., heat stress, or overwatering or all 3. Temps during the day have been getting up around 86-88 daytime and only down to maybe 74 at night in the tent. I try to let the top of the soil dry out when watering as well

Warum werden die Blätter auf einmal so schnell gelb und welk?
Hey, meine Hawaiian Runtz ist Ende 4. blütewoche. Gießen tue ich alle 4-5 Tage mit 2-2,5 Liter Wasser und 6,5 ph Wert, immer ziemlich identisch mit Terra aquatics ph Tropfen, also sollten ph Fehler ausgeschlossen sein. Temps am Tag ~28 und nachts 26 grad Celsius. What’s wrong?

Droopy leaves
Please check the latest photos. After treating roots with hydrogen peroxide to kill root rot and replacing water my leaves are droopy and not recovering. I’ve got ph back to 6.2 and changed water and nutes. But I’ve got a bad feeling we’re in for a backwards ride with these guys.
