Horrible Accident Need Help

Herbicide · Mar 24, 2013

My plants are only on there second week from seed, and i was misting them today when this happened.

Okay so I didn't mean to but unfortunately i put clean water into a old spray bottle that had bat guano in it from last season. The spray bottle was cleaned out several times but I originally planned for it to be only for guano. My plants are burnt kinda bad, some it didn't bother at all.

Here are a few pics of the bad ones, see what you all think. And tell me if there is anything i can do.

I'm using cfls distance from plants is in pics aswell, had them raised higher but just lowered them in case the heat was a factor in what happened to them.

soil looks very wet, may be an issue. I dont think plain water was the issue

Herbicide · Mar 24, 2013

pictures were taken like 5 minutes after watering, it wasnt the plain water i was talking about but the left over nutes in the old spray bottle.
the soil is seedling mix so it needs watered more often it stays kinda dry

anymore advice, i would appreciate anything

and hopefully if UPS find my house this time, i will have roots organic soil by morning.
when should i re pot them in the roots organic? like i said there on there 2nd week from seed

You have new seedlings, there was RESIDUE left in the bottle not chunks. There shouldn't be a problem. Besides, what's the problem with a bit of food for them? The little bit that was left is no problem. As for your CFLs, unless your leaves are against the bulb I wouldn't worry about that either. One more thing, Blue OG is a Blueberry derivative. It could possibly be nute sensitive. Unlikely, but possible.

You can't turn those leaves green... Just cut off the bad part, half the leaves, and just let it grow it will all be okay.

Sorry I find this question Ironic considering your name

, but your I believe your plants will be fine, if you are still concerned you may want to spray them with fresh water, in an attempt to rinse off any guano residue.

Yup, they are very tough plants, just take a bit of time.

Thanks for all the advice, i was scared for a minute.
This is my 3rd grow but first time starting them indoors then moving out, so i know im going to make some mistakes. I've learned from my mistakes in the past, and i'll learn from this one

About adjusting them to the sunlight?
I already have them on light schedule similar to my climate, and am going to slowly take them outside during cloudy'rainy days moving it up to warmer days near the time to plant. Anything else I'm missing?

Like i said it's my first time starting indoors then moving them out. Am i doing okay so far, and what should i look forward to giving them 2 a month head start indoors?

I see little to no problems here! Basically you used an old bottle with a tad bit of nutrient which can be considered a foliar spray.

If you want food for thought, imagine if you were sick, and you were constantly disturbed and unable to rest, it could pro-long your illness!
With young ladies, like these here, you want to keep the environment and nutrient regime balanced and make sure all needs are met, after that mother nature shall do her job!

(Cutting the tips of the leafs will give them oxygen and could help them boost back faster! However do not cut in to much, maybe 20% of the tip!)

Just read your new post, Giving them a 2 month stretch would be very beneficial in your case, you want the plant to mature as much as possible before taking them outdoors, so they can naturally aid themselves through the adjustments they make when you break their homeostasis!

Don't sweat it man, your all good!

And yes the account was made right after this happened, was meant that way ;D

I think you will do fine, just condition them to the outdoor climate over a period of say 2 weeks.

Just do what your doing mate, your get to learn what your plant wants by the way she looks, don't overthink things either dude, she is after all, just a weed. Best of luck, keep us all updated!

Sprayed them with some plain water just in case, i'll post some pics in a few days to let you all see the progress.

Still no1 answered my question about the roots organic soil, my first time using it so i don't know when i should re-pot them in it.

Again thanks for everything, (rogue, rooky, & ghost)

Sorry I missed that Q, what soil are they in now? I would let them grow out a bit more in their current containers.

realghost · Mar 24, 2013

I know people who use roots organic with great results! I wouldn't doubt it for a second.

It appears you are using Cups at the current phase your plants are in, if not correct me. I would let them go 2-3 weeks longer, in the current home so the roots can really wind up, kind of like a Yo-Yo.

And when you throw them in the roots organic, and a pot maybe 3-4 times the size, they will take off!

Always let them STRETCH in small homes, so they can occupy bigger homes with ease!

I hope that helped,
Ghost

Sorry mate missed that question, its 6 in the morning here and im a bit smashed lol Repot as soon as. I re-pot mine after two weeks max from a 1Litre Airpot. I use BioBizz All mix Soil so I wouldn't know about that one mate, anything organic is good tho

Herbicide · Mar 25, 2013

There in 100% organic seedling jiffy mix, only thing worth a piss i could get until my roots organic comes in. Was supposed to be here 4 days ago but UPS sent a new guy up here and he couldn't find my house so i had to wait over the weekend.... They should really pay my 20 bucks shipping back.

Another question I'm using 10 gallon grow bags outdoors and using roots organic as my base soil. Other ingredients are listed below, i just need to know how much of each will need to go into each pot. Got the ingredients from a super soil mix someone swore by.

Perlite
Organic worm castings
Bone meal
Epson salts
Dolomite
Azomite
Powdered humic acid

general rule- if a plant loses more than 50% of its leaves, theres a good chance it will die
