A horrible thing( not for the faint of heart)

Well these used to be 2 beautiful healthy hydro girls, until 2 days ago.



At first i saw a few drooping leaves on one plan(the bigger one of course), and i immediately posted pictures and questions on the growery.org, but there were no responses,


and by the next day things were looking really bad. I flushed 2 times,

things were looking worse the next day, so i flushed a third time, and installed another airstone in the resevoir thinking that may be the problem. Well then my other girl, (who was still doing fine, but in the same hydro tank) started showing the same early signs that the other was showing. I do not think there is anything i can do to stop this, but if there is please let me know! the roots are still white, and the stems are still green and not dried, but some lower budsites are completely dried out, to the point where i could just snap them right off.

This is now...



Its too late right? or is there anything that can be done in a final attempt to save them?

Are you positive they are getting water, aside from the flushing? IDK, but they look like they've run dry, to me.

Looks like a R.I.P :/

i'm positive they're getting water, the're sitting in a 10 gallon resevoir.

They are gone. even if you did attempt to save them they are shocked so bad the only thing you would be making is a great home for pests

Well, I can't argue with that, can I?


IDK man, something had to have changed, in order for that to happen. Can you think of anything at all, that could be the culprit? Did you add anything new to the reservoir? I don't think it could be temp or humidity. It could be 110* with 1% humidity, and I don't think that would do it, especially that fast. Hmm.... Any possibility someone sabotaged them? Something is majorly fucked with your medium, or environment, 'cause them to become inable to stay hydrated. Maybe it's death by poisoning? IDK, but something caused it, and I'm going to be racking my brain all night long, til we figure out what it is. *scratches chin*

I don't know what could have happened to it i added nothing new, and didnt change anything. the only thing i can think of is i did give it nutes while tripping on some shrooms, but i don't remember doing anything different, although now that i think of it i did add the ph down without measureing, it's weird but i can remember that.
and i guess i could have fucked something up? but still it didnt happend like after i fed them, it was a couple days later.

the night before it all happened though, i tied them back from the light like it took a while and it was alot of tying, and then the next morning they were droopin, but i really dont think that some lst will cause all that to happen.

if anything it will be a little over a couple O's of some hash material

There's your answer, my friend. The acidity killed them.(it must've been quite strong) And the fact that it took a couple days, adds up, as well. Just about any sort of damage/mistake, takes awhile to show/take effect.

Pheew, I can relax now.

they were barely flowering the thc content is not developed. im not sure if the hash would be any more potent then just smoking the sun leaves

i kno they were only like 3 weeks into flower but the bud is actually decent already. I've been smokin it and gettin high, and i haven't even been smoking the good super sparkly buds

heres a couple shots like 2 days before it all happened.

The third one is burnt from the light(clearly), but it was the tallest, best nug prior to burning.

as a matter of fact im smoking a bong of it right now

damn those pictures were 12mp, normally u can zoom in really far but I can't see the macro on here.

im happy to hear its not a total loss then

Would there be any point on putting full strength nutes back in there?
there is still another girl growing in the tank, but she is starting to look rough now without enouhg nutrients,
i have the tank at about 15-20 percent right now.

question up there ^, can anyone answer it?
