This is a 4 week old purple haze bag seed. About a week ago I noticed the leaves starting to droop and some brown spots on the bigger fan leaves.
I thought i might have over watered it so I let it dry out for a week and watered it yesterday. I am also using humboldt nutrients master a- master b with big up powder. I was just wondering what you guys think maybe the problem. see I am heading in the right direction (this is my first grow)
any help would be greatly appreciated.:joint: :peace::joint:

yes that looks like over watering to me to
some plants naturally do that but thats only a few fan leaves

are you checking the pH? Make sure the soil is dry at the top two inches, are you following the feeding schedule. are you using cal-mag or lime in the soil?

my soil ph is 6.7. the feeding schedule they gave is for hydro up to six plants
the bottles say 1ml/liter so i watered it 1.5 liters water with 1.5ml of master a waited 30 min then gave it 1.5 liters of water with 1.5ml of master b. Maybe i need to wait longer in between to avoid nut. lock-up?

I've found that it needs to be dry far deeper than the top 2". Your mileage may vary. I agree with the others, a really good drying out may be in order here (let it dry until it droops again). It is FAR easier to correct underwatering than overwatering, again, in my own experience. One of my cedars out front disagrees (it was getting so well established, wha' happen?).

I let my soil get dry too, but it's hard to tell someone new when to water.
So the feeding schedule is for hydro but your using soil? Can't you mix the A and B together. You do need to get some cal-mag, this is essential for a healthy plant.
You do need to let it dry out and I think you might need to up the nutes, if it was overfertilized the leaves would be dark green.

Yeah, it's very difficult without being able to get a feel for the soil and other conditions. So much of this is exactly like keeping fish, you get a 'feel' for it and that's very difficult to convey.
