alfalfa? horse food? ok where can i find this organic substitute? thanks bro

you see mostly as rabbit food, they're alfalfa pellets
been fermented, which is what you need
get them at pet food supplier, i bought a 50 lb sack which was as small as i could find it

I agree with others in that you have a PH problem that is locking nutes away from your plants. I used to grow organic, but once I switched to Technaflora products I will never go back. Just not worth all the time/investment when you can almost double your yeild and reduce overall grow time. After every feeding the plants grow at least 1/2 inch overnight. Maybe it's time to try something new?

yeah, it really seems like ph, thinking this pheno of horror is on the touchy side, saw a few grow log comments on some other jock grows
i'm still pretty new to organic, old time outdoor grower, this is my 2nd inside grow
i have seen Techniflora mentioned a few time, certainly worth some reading, +rep for alternatives

39 days, somethings not right here... ive had nute burn, ph and drainage problems and its never stunted growth that much.

The one on the right looks near death, not sure on the advantages of growing ethically on such a small scale, look at it this way, if you grow nothing cuz you havent given the plants the right nutes you buy weed from a dealer, doubt he gets it from an organic source, you use fule to go get it and you put yourself at risk. Also your using electricity which in most cases comes from a hi carbon process so if you dont harvest anything you have effectivly wasted carbon, put it in perspective, buy some decent nutes and stop punishing yourself.

yeah, it's a sick little plant alright
part of the deal is this was a super slow spouter
took 2+ weeks to get it above the soil, had misgivings about continuing
as far as nutes, basically just did a grow with same nute/soil that worked very well
it was only 78w of cfl, but got 35g of dry bud
this is why i'm working on 26w this time, if it scales like my 1st grow, it would be about right
+rep for the straight talk, really twists the gut a bit to watch a plant go bad

no offense taken, it is a sad looking little plant
hard to let go, afraid that i might toss out the best pheno in the seed pack
but there will be a point where it's time to try a fresh one

3 days since my ph adjustment, i won't describe this as a miracle, but i think a little improvement
1st pic is 3 days ago, 2nd pic from today - there is some fairly good growth at the top
it's not much, but compared to how it was growing, it's better
the 1st true leaves(not fans, the single leaves) look like a lost cause, but i can live without those
there is some new color on the little fans, hard to see, but it's there
again, ignore the plant at top, a clone that was 'tossed', but put in for color comparison
