Like someone else said. Check PH. When I first started that shit would happen to me all the time. But I was able to correct it quickly in hydro.

Really? I was beginning to think it was too far gone... So do i let soil dry out or flush it with ph balanced water?

The only issue would be over watering. Wich will cause root rot. But from what i know root rot takes several months to develop so its not instantaneous death as you see with your plant. It most likely ph. So I would test the soil first. See how ph is after run off. Also do you have a ph meter? But yeha I would flush her till ph is on point. Like I said it happens in just a few minutes in hydro so you would notice right away. But in soil it might be an overnight thing.

Yea thats why im cincerned because idk if its already overwatered or if its ph... But ive never checked ph so it could be that. No i do not gave a ph meter

That's what I thought. I was a noob once and made the same mistakes. Run and get a ph meter fast. Should read 5.5 to 6.5 the highest. Best to be on the high side or in between.

Okayyy. Do you know where i could get one from? Or would it have to be online?

If you have never checked the ph and been watering... this could be why the others are suffering... maybe not so tho.. maybe the soil is buffering... why the hell does my rainfall ph to 7.2-7.4 even my water report states it.. but everything in my yard that the lord waters is beautiful... weeds no different... we do need to ph but even it gets taken out of hand... your ph should be this or that... then u need to fluctuate it to get nutes going... u don’t need to ph soil.... man I’ve heard it all...

Fact is it was beautiful with the same water...

It been overwatered... if it 5 weeks like that and an auto...you maybe be beating a dead horse... should be flowering soon.. so you maybe wasting time... it’s been more than 24 hours... move on to next seed...

Autos are good... what I find is they don’t require as many nutes..just more light hours... they grow very well..

Photos... get a light leak or screw shit up in flowering......

You like to water.. want them thangs big...
Man I will tell you again... hempy your next grow ......and go...it takes half the guess work out of your grows...

I have soil grows now but my 1 gallon hempy buckets are killing them...
Why am I trying to make u go hempy...I just water and go.. hell I overwater on purpose
I apologize

My brother is trynna make me do it too lol. And yea 5 week autos ughhh. Mtmy other two arent suffering tho. They are very happy and healthy looking. Honestly seem even better now that the big one is giving up.. Lol.

Those 2 plants had all sorts of problems in soil... I snatched them out the soil, rinsed them off, and hempied them.. problem solved... and I just put them in a gallon.. cause any bigger they would be super huge... I will up pot to maybe 2 gallons if they are girls for flowering

Hempire u run coco in your hempy?

As far as what's better for beginners I couldn't tell ya my guess is that people with naturally green thumbs do great with autos. Me on the other hand I don't have a green thumb but I still feel I do really well. I can't grow in dirt to save my life tho (well I can just can't get it to yield for shit). I take a more science based approach and use meters and mix nutes every day, currently use Coco but my first what I would call successful grows were dwc.

I like photos because I can beat them all to hell in my small veg tent then repot when I need them give them a week or so to get in good shape and flower. It's not ideal but I'm short on veg space atm. Autos are cool if you can keep em healthy the whole time.

My first and only auto grow was when I first set up at new spot and hadn't grown for a few years so had no mothers. I am half embarrassed to even say what I got but I will in the interest of educating how bad it can be. I pulled less than 4 ounces off 10 autos in 2 3x3 with a 315 cmh in each tent. I now pull between 11-12 per 3x3 with photos.

But really how hard could it be to check ph. I know that everyone has an opinion and yes If they telling you to transplant or to give her more nutrients that is a bit extreme if you ask me. Its like you being hot and feeling sick the first thing you do is take your temperature. and some one else is telling you to go to the hospital. Just check your temperature first and then take it from there. Is the most basic and fundamental thing to do is check ph.
Also be careful on these threads there is alot of wrong information its best if you research it for yourself and then take anyones advice you think it's the best educated and experienced response.

Yea no green thumb over here... Was given a solo cup of GRASS for nothers day abd it was dead in a few days... Thats why ive been so proud of ny olants taking hundreds of pix abd then boom .. Goner...

Just to add some positivity to my depressing post that makes me so upset everytime i look at the darn thing.... Heres ny other two babiessss

I don't know what kinda dirt you use, and while I agree with above poster not to take extreme measures and not to listen to everyone on the internet. I am going to disagree with pH being the culprit. Almost any store bought dirt should have lime or something to buffer pH. But even if it didn't I wouldnt think the first sign of ph being off would be a dead plant. Now if it was just messed up leaves with spots or yellowing or other issues I'd say that it could be pH. Either way knowing your pH is important so get a meter or test strips if can't afford a meter. I tend to think it's prob overwatering and it's caused the stem to damp off. I know u said u hadn't watered in 5 days which leads to me guess you didn't add any perlite in your soil. I don't know if there is any way to fix your plant but learn from it and keep on rolling. My first grow was worse than Mexican swag, I had no idea what I was doing had temps well over 100. 5 foot tall plants in small pots of miracle grow. And they should have never even been smoked they were so bad(we did smoke it tho). Of course that was all before I found out about forums and all the info on the internet. Had to actually go buy a real book to figure out what I was doing.

Oh and dont listen to this dude. Lol he doesn't know shit about growing if he's telling you to not check the most important part of growing. Its as basic as brushing your teeth or combing your hair.

The old school way.. 4:1 perlite vermiculite... at the 2 inch res I have clay pebbles...ph the water way of nutes and/or ph up or down....I run 3x3 cmh as well...I got tomatoes in 5 gallons damn near 6 feet tall... my tents only 6.. I was thinking about netting one but idk.. too many seeds and not Enough room..

Dude ur an idiot if u think "this happens all the time in hydro" from pH. I been growing hydro 10 years or more and never just had a plant fall over for no reason. They already said it had a soft spot on the stem which leads to to believe damping off. Also your reading comprehension needs some work I said in the post that they needed a meter or strips as pH is important. First off the poster is in dirt not hydro, and second pH issues show up on leaves well before a plant falls over dead from it. Explain how pH is making the stem have a wet soft spot on it?

You don’t have to have green thumps... I’m sure you’ve planted something other than weed.. do like we all have and study up...

I have dealt with rot root before and its depressing. Im sure we have all been there. I tell everyone i know dont over water. Its the easiest thing to do. I go by weight test. Lift the pot. Ig its light give it water. Heavy wait a day and check again. You will learn what a plant that needs water will feel like. The plant will also tell you it wants water by wilting. So long as you checknyour plants in the morning and at night you will be fine. I run promix with about a 3/4 promix and 1/4 perilite just for the aeration because i know with indoor overwatering is easy to do and by adding perilite it will dry out alittle quicker so u can water more because i love watering. I believe the faster u can go from watering to drying thw better the plant grows. I also try to only water around the edge of the pot and keep the water away from the stalk of thw plant to make roots stretch for the water and to avoid it getting water logged. Usually for the first 2-3 weeks i only use a sprayer to water as that way its hard to over water also. I have saved plants that have had rot root before by transplanting in drier soil but having an auto you might as well toss it and start something else. I always take some clones just in case i do run into any issues. Then just toss plants if issues occur and only have lost a couple weeks. I am not a fan of autos but could have been the seeds i had that didnt impress me. Hard to find a good strain that really does everything u want it to do. So i am always trying new gear until i find that perfect stinky,stoney,tadty goodness.
Good luck and dont over water
