I have 3 white widow plants about 12" tall. I bought them as clones for a dispensary. so
I don't know what there original (Dixie cup) of soil was. but now they are in indoor outdoor Ph balanced stuff lol


ok first problem the leaves were twisting all crazy and burn edges and tips. I just upgraded to 400 watt mh from cfl. I i put the light 10 inches from the tops. opps but the lived.

Now the light is 18" away the temp above the plants is 80 while at the top of the planters the temp is 68. Also no more twisted deformed leaves after raising the light (dumb ass)

Now they are growing slow as hell. and every single leaf tip is burnt dry as a bone. 1/8 inch of each tip and all stems are bright purple?


they did spend a few nights in 40 degree temps but that's been resolved, also watered once with miracle grow sigles 24-8-16 Maybe over fert? nute lock?


I need some help here folks
thank you

the cause of tip burn is your ppm being a bit high. drop it down 100 or 200 and it should be fine. with a 400 watter, you can put the light closer than 18". use the back of the hand test to get it as close as you can. cold temps can cause purpling.

Sorry, Im gonna tell you how it is..

Do ya mind?

Your fertilizer is shit, and the 40 degree temp is enough to kill em..

You need a reputable brand of fert like Fox Farm and a warmer environment to grow quality cannabis.

Good luck to you man. :)
