Drooping leaves

jackedfrost
jackedfroststarted grow question 2 years ago
The water pH wasn't right before but it's been at 6 for the past 5 days and the leaves are still drooping and seemingly yellowing albeit at a snail's pace. Water her every 2-3 days + 0.5 ml of feed once a week so not sure what the problem is currently? It's an organic grow.

Yeah, I'll agree with my growmies here that she looks vastly underwatered... when you water, you want to make sure you're getting at least 10-20% runoff ... and you also want to let that runoff sit in the saucer or tray or whatever you have under her for about 15 minutes or so to see if the soil will soak it back up - if it does, you know she needed more. When I do this, if the soil soaks it back up, I give more water... and I keep giving water until the soil doesn't soak any more back up. This is NOT over-watering - over-watering is the state of being constantly wet... what this does is ensure that all the soil in the pot has moisture to attract and quench the thirst of the roots...roots will stop growing if they hit dry soil... The other thing it does is to rid the soil of any excess nutes or salts... But I'm also seeing a definitely start to some calcium issues - those yellowing leaves midway and on the top... calcium deficiency results either from giving the plant too much nitrogen causing a lockout or the pH not being in a good range. A pH of 6 is the lowest you should go in soil - preferable would be 6.2-6.3. So I'm thinking that if you haven't been watering until runoff, the grow nutes, particularly nitrogen, have built up in the soil and need to be flushed out. That means running 3x the pot volume of pH'd water through the pot... in your case, you would need to run 12 gallons through... but give her 1/2 strength of your bloom nutes in the final gallon. I would also urge you to find some good calcium amendments you would feel comfortable using with your organic grow. The other thing I will recommend is that you use some Langbeinite which has an NPK of 0-0-22 that would really help your flowers. I use 1 tablespoon of it sprinkled on top of my soil once a month for my whole grow. Good luck..

you need to start water her right, provide air circulation and feed her a bit something bloom orientated like NPK value 4-4-8 would be very nice for her she looks underwatered and sad, correct few and you will smoke some ;)

She needs more nitrogen, I say. Find a good 4-4-4 npk mix and give her a good watering with it. Then, wait a few days and see how it's doing. I hope this helps.

Hi there She looks like she needs some water and a good feed.. As they go into flower they need the extra feed/energy to produce flowers, I would say check your feeding chart and make sure you’ve giveing her the correct dose per liter .. i would add some PK for a boost Best of luck 🌱
