What happened? f***

[Skunk Monk]

ok so my plants started to burn and the leaves started to yellow, i had never fed them any nuted but i started them on a 12/12 from seed, after 2 week i decided to switch to 24/0 and make this my mother plants, only problem now it almost the end of the third week and they are fucked this morning i tried giving them nutes 2 days ago but it hasnt helped

You burned them. Those plants are entirely too young for a nutetrient system. What type of soil are you using. Use distilled water for like the next 3 weeks at least. Flush the pots out with a gallon each. Leave the nutes alone for a while.

Also, put each plant in it's own pot.

the plants were burnt before, someone told me it was nute def, i only used 1/4 strength 10.15.10 nutes made by shultz, and i use shultz moisture soil plus (0.08-0.12-0.08 ) and the plants are only in the same pot because they are twins from the same seed, and they share roots.

here is a picture from before the nutes

whoever told you that was wrong. Ah ha so they're twins. Makes more sense now.

ok thankyou i will flush them right now!
would a brita filter be better than tap water to flush?

Definitely

 

[Skunk Monk]

how long (as a rough estimate) until they start to show signs of improvement?

2-3 days probably

 

[Skunk Monk]

thanks again

2-3 days probably

I would give it up to a week, those girls are pretty hurt, also with girls that are healing, they really need some lights out time to recover, i would switch to 18/6. Also, all recovery is going to be stunted due to the shock of being at 12/12 (flowering = end of life cycle), then 24/0 (veg is the begining of life cycle), then burnt to a crisp...that kind of thing takes a toll and puts alot of stress on the plant. To the OP, THEY WILL RECOVER but its going to take time and some patience on your part. Also, for future reference, if your using fortified soil, you dont really need nutes until your plant starts to show some def. As you will learn from the coming experience, canna can survive. Listen to your plant, she will let you know.

Good luck.

thankyou my friend, I wasnt even planning on feeding them yet, but the damage they had lead me to believe they were deficient, and i switched lights since they hadnt started showing signs of flowering yet i thought vegging them would be better, all in all its an unfortunatly good learning experience
, Ill keep updating pictures of their recovery in my grow journal should you wish to see how they turn out

 

[Skunk Monk]

should i trim off the affected leaves and leave the fresh green ones, or should i leave them all alone?

Although you say you haven't given your plant nutrients - it appears that your soil is full of it, and that has burned your little babies. Try to give them a couple good flushes - until your run-off starts to look almost clear. Unless it's too late, that should take care of things.

 

[angelsbandit]

Leave them - they will fall off when they are ready.The leaves that are damaged will not come back, they will dry up and fall off.

\i flushed with about 4L of water today and the runoff is yellowy right now, should i flush again next watering, Im afraid to flush too much at once incase the dirt gets so watery it cant support the plants and they fall over or something

 

[jordisgarden]

I used some dirt to germinate that i wasnt sure if it had nutes in it, so i flushed the hell out of it. I poured about 2 gallons of fresh through beer cups full of the dirt, then i used it once i was sure id washed the nutes away. Nutes on a seedling spells dissaster

Flushing is a time consuming process, when I have run into problems with hot soil or soil that had a build up of nutrient salts and had to flush, I did it until my water ran clear. CK

 

[Skunk Monk]

all the flushing caused the roots to float up, would it be safe to transplant the plant into a rockwool cube to help fix the burns?
