A good soil??

[wampuscat]

it looks like what I have on one of my plants, I went over a week and half with out nutes plus I flushed the plant well and still the leaves that were healthy start looking like it, my pH is on spot, my light isnt to close. what my leaves did was turn under on the tips and edges, then the edges would turn brown along with yellow spots on the leaf that is now dry like dead almost. I am not sure if it was nute burn or pH. Yours looked like it was the leaves around your buds, all mine were just fan leaves, get you a pH tool or strips from walmart even and get a soil tester, and see if its not pH, I did have to raise mine some but not much.

long shot, but iron deficiency (common if pH is too high, or "alkaline") is a thought. Is pH of your soil much over 7.0?

 

[wampuscat]

Sir Titanium would iron do that to a plant if the pH is around 6.5 ? it looks like all my plants have it now, but not as bad as the first one.

your leaves look like mine do??? damn, it goes away after about a week, i do need to check my Ph

Wow. Raw, you need to chill the f out. Srsly.

If your plants look good, let them be.

If your plants don't look good, then do something.

Right now, I think you need to smoke for a bit and step away from the computer. You're getting a little too antsy and that means you're going to make too quick of a decision. And that means you're going to make mistakes you don't want to make.

If your pH is good, then you're probably okay. Yes, check your lights and your grow setup, but if things are still growing, maybe it's best to just leave the damn plants alone.

After all, there is NO SUCH THING as a perfect grow.

I've had better grows with Advanced Nutrients and hydro grow setup, but things still aren't perfect. I wish. LOL

CHILL!!

 

[raw225]

lmao, i smoked.....my plant is doing better

Sorry people, I forgot to check in with this forum. Not likely. 6.5 is on the acidic end of . . . great! I would have a tough time believing in iron deficiency unless you were looking at a soil pH of >7.2 and then some. You probably are fine judging by the absence of posts for three days. Be well.

What did u end up doing?

 

[raw225]

What did u end up doing?

i moved my HPS up some, i also hung a fan at the same level as my HPS to move the heat out of the grow room. the plants are doing much better, so i take it the problem was HEAT

 

[SirTitanium]

Thank goodness. That's easier to fix than iron deficiency!

 

[raw225]

no kidding... how is your grow going???

 

[wampuscat]

found out that it was potassium deficiency from all the sites and webpages I read and looked at pics of different things to compare to, so what I did was flush my plants again REASON BEING is I had been feeding with the a fert that wasnt good to my plants. I went and bought M.G All Purpose Plant Food 20-20-20 . and starting them off slow with a light dose, and do another in a few days, that should get the plant back in health but the leaves will never get better if they are already messed up, sucks. I have about 2 1/2 or 3 weeks left before they should be ready, I sure hope I dont lose them all, I know I will probly lose one, but oh well , there is always next time

 

[raw225]

damn... i hope they pull through, my plants have been through hell! & they are still alive post up some pics of your babies..i wanna see em, i been keeping my new sprouts in direct sunlight like you said, they are doing great!!! im about to check on them in a lil while, i have them in miracle grow soil, do you think they'll be fine in that for now until about another 2 weeks? i have some roots organic soil, thats what im gonna transplant them in when the time comes

anyways...GOOD LUCK ON YOUR GROW MY BOY!!

 

[wampuscat]

yes that is a good soil you have them in and what your moving them into (roots organic soil). Miracle Grow is what I used, I have seen others use it also and they had good results, just use the most loose type you can, the lil ones I have outside are in M.G. potting MIX not potting soil, the MIX is alot better for the roots and drainage.

I am going to transplant my ones outside that I have vegging now into FoxFarm light warrior http://foxfarmfertilizer.com/products_soils3.html along with a mix of http://www.foxfarmfertilizer.com/products_soils1.html I have heard this was a good mix also, but was thinking to like you and getting some of that Roots Org soil ( I think its good to try different ones till you find what really works for ya, that is what I did on my flower beds outside).
I will post some pics tomorrow, I am letting these plants stress me out, I sit down here to write and thought " damn man they just plants, you can try again if you fail ", but I am like you they can take alot and still live lol, so maybe they will last me another 20 so days, going to have to tie up one I know , the topped one i have, she is looking good to me , her flowers are bigger than the other 2, but she is indica dominate , the other 2 are sativa. more tomorrow, and thanks for the words of encouragement

i found this chart for pH-ing , thanks to a thread I was reading about Noobs not reading lol

 

[raw225]

thats damn good! that helped me out! my Ph was a little high, can you post a pic of your plants?? i wanna see the buds

happy growing BRO! get at me

 

[wampuscat]

here are a couple pics, the buds are still growing, not sure if they are just going to be nugs or if they will have some decent buds as they are still growing, I will post more each week so ya can see the growth, the one on the right was when I needed to flush the soil, the buds had stopped growing, so they probly want get as big as they should had, not sure how much longer it will take , but I am just goin to set back and watch em grow lol.
this one was today , the one below was on the 25th of last month, you can see some growth difference.

 

[wampuscat]

where are some pics for me to look at , about your white mold.
