Bagseed, 3 weeks into growth, under 2 26w cfl floodlights @ 5000k. Planted in 4" pot with mg 10-10-10 extended release (i know...lesson learned).

1 week ago the 2nd set of leave tips started curling under and fading to yellow around the edges. A few holes formed on one leaf. The veins on the leaves are green and fade to yellow moving away. Some leaf stems are reddish brown.

Today i transplanted to a larger pot into regular potting soil and watered generously. I also added 2 26w cfl floodlights @ 2000k.

Any idea what is causing this? Is it fixable?View attachment 3318533 View attachment 3318534 View attachment 3318534 View attachment 3318535IMG_20141223_172129.jpg IMG_20141223_150729.jpg IMG_20141223_150708.jpg

potting soil? seed raising mix be all good as has lower amount of nutrients in it , but if it is an all purpose mix it may have to much nutrients for a plant of that age .

Plain potting soil, no nutes. I bought nutes today to supplement after she adjusts to the transplant. I just dont know why im having the issue...too much or little nute, light, water...maybe im just holdin my mouth wrong lol

Looks like a little dry and lockedout. Try some extra cal-mag next feed, PH to 6.5, ppm 300-600 and a little more watering. Might help, might kill your plant. I hope what ever you do, helps.

do what i do shave that bitch and start over just playing man but look same girl i flipping hacked her roots got infected with mites took a dawn dish soap bath shaved her ass to stalk and BAM gave her love and she loved me back. Never worry bout nutes when they are babies until they are at least 3-4 nodes high look into tea or beneficial biologics then worry bout feeding them i give my girls guano and water with biologics till their about 4 weeks old from clone 6 from seed and never have a problem and thats 54 watts and one week just saying lil scoop of poop and biologics and bam image 3.jpg DSC04451.jpg IMG_30215.JPG IMG_0273.jpg IMG_0269.JPG image 3.jpgDSC04451.jpg IMG_30215.JPG

I truly applaud all you for your ppm readings. I haven't looked at mine since march. just remember you don't need to over feed these girls they just take time and love

Temp is 83° during the day and 80° at night. Humidity runs about 40%. I did dig out an old humidifier ill use tomorrow after i clean it.

Im planning on time, patience and water. Id hate to lose her though, im lucky to get this strain to study.

So you took em out of the MG and put em in regular potting soil,,,, What brand?
Does it have Dolomite in it?

Do you test the PH of your water? if so what is it?

83 is a tad on the high side and your dif is off (dif between night & day temp) it should be at least 10 degrees not 3. With 83 and 40% your heat index is 82.3 you want your heat index to be 4 points above ambient you can calculate that here

This is why the leaves are all curling down

Your actual problem is PH indicated by the little bubble looking mutations in the leaves

Good Luck

Its gardenpro potting soil. Dolemitic limestone (ph adjuster), composted bark fines, sand and perilite.

The water is plain bottled water.

I couldnt find a ph tester or litmus paper at the podunk lowes here so i gotta go to town. Will the dolemite limestone raise or lower the ph?

I can manage the dewpoint without a problem.

Dolomite slowly raises the PH over time, it is what creates the range in soil growing. You water/feed with a PH of 6 and as it wicks out and drys the PH buffers up to 7

Get aquarium drops at wally world or any pet shop they work, it's what I use

Aquafina ph is 5.96 which is what i use.

I just transplanted into plain potting soil from the mg time release and plan on flushing the root system to get as much of the miracle grow out i can.
