I have a very small problem, but thought I'd tackle it before it got big
Out of 21 plants, a couple of them (only) are getting wilting leaves at the bottom. They're perfectly healthy leaves, and sometimes they'll be a couple on one plant. Other than that, everything looks GREAT. So, I can't figure out why only a few of them are doing it. We've had a lot of rain recently, and also had a BUNCH at the beginning to the point where I couldn't water them to fertilized them for five weeks after I put them in the large pots. At least it was FFOF, so it came with lots of nutrients. Due to the rain patterns, I've only been able to fertilize them ONE time, after transplanting them May 9th.......and, I've NEVER had such green leaves! So, that tells me I have been over fertilizing, and that they need a WHOLE LOT LESS than recommended. I usually have so many yellow leaves by now that it's scary, and it used to make me add more fertilizer until I learned I had been adding too much and started reducing it. Now, I see it wasn't by enough....LESSON LEARNED.
Now, they're starting to bud, and are almost ready for Big Bloom, and have only been fert once with Grow Big. It feels weird, but it works!
Back to my question. Why would healthy leaves wilt, and only on a few plants. *on the bottom*
thanks!
