Tips turning down

[ladycherish]

Hey if seen my last post this is my 1st ever grow photo plant 6 weeks 4 days veg this morning I. Noticed tips turned down I water her every 48 hrs! Rain water all last week and today is water day! Help me please! Thanks in advance

Verify Ph, and only water her when she needs it. Every 2 days isn't when she needs it, she needs it when her pot gets light. I'm guessing (not knowing anything more than what's on this post) Ph is too low and overwatered.

if I wait 3 days the plants droop droop so that's why i do it every 48 hrs. PH not gone lie I"ve never tested PH this whole process. that's why I use rain water or spring water. Once I repotted this plant it took off really fast and I made some banana tea and gave a few drops. but I will follow ur advice and wait till the pot is light.

What's your medium?

 

[HydoDan]

Do you water to runoff or just wet the soil? Nutes?

Am I the only one who’s gonna mention that light lol.

 

[Herb & Suds]

Or enough light leads to overwatering and here is no such thing as a schedule because it changes at various stages of growth

 

[GrassBurner]

Put that thing in a sip and never worry about over/under watering again

No, I was getting there, if you're at 6 weeks, she is tiny. That little (7w?) Led isn't going to do much more than it has. There is almost no chance of producing any significant quantity. They do make budget conscious LEDs finally. I did well with Mars Hydro's every level light (ts600) at the time they cost me 80.00 a piece, I think I saw them on ebay recently for 65.00 but there are cheaper. @jondamon is right, we can advise till we're blue, but without a better light it will only help so much.

Somethings wrong %100, low ph, anaerobic mix? Mag? Id give epsom salts first in tapwater. Overwatering too. Suptins sup! Stunted badly, looks 2 weeks old to me. At 30 days ended up male so killed him 8 gal pot.

Soil? Miracle grow

It’s two LED 70w lights on her. It was 3 but I dropped it last week

140w will only cover a 2x2 for flower, shame it broke, can you get another?

PH pens going to be a necessity or drops at least. Rainwater near a big city can be like a ph of 5. Not exactly baby cannabis plant friendly. Like others have said you're going to want to upgrade to more light if at all possible but figure out the water situation and fill your pot up to about 1-2" of the top of the pot with soil if you have any left over. It looks lost in there.

Are they 70w equivalent lamps? Or actual wattage?

 

[FirstCavApache64]

Try to keep in mind visually that light is like food to your plant, just like the nutrients your going to give them. You don't want to starve it, if you are then you're better off waiting until you can get a better setup for them. Both you and the plant will be much happier.

I got a 150w 3k mono likesun 2000w for 100ca off kajiji and bought 408w 4cob +3w colours. For 200ca same place, go to growshop and ask about older stock sure to get a deal. Got 600w 4x4 light for under 1 third cost 1600ca for 500ca.

 

[ladycherish]

It’s 100w use 70w y’all don’t shoot me down this my 1st time I’m still learning day by day growth stunted I kno but progress is progress cause when I started only had dirt from outside cause I found a seed and wanted to try it the pic below is from 4/5/22 so a lot has happened in a month.. sorry not experienced as y’all I’ll get there

Don't feel like you're being shot down, just trying to keep you from failing. If you are going to put time and effort into a thing like growing you want it to be a success. Using the wrong equipment will severely limit your ability to succeed. I started out with super cheap Amazon blurple lights and just reading books cuz there were no forums back then. When I got more into it I realized I needed better lights to achieve better yields and healthier plants. I started out with 250 watt actual draw lights though. People want to help you but there's only so much you're going to be able to do on a budget or with limited equipment. If you're fine with that then cool, rock on and see how it does with what you have and use it as a learning experience. Just temper your expectations accordingly.
