New Member Here, New Grower, New (and irritating) problems

Alright, will do.

I'm only going to water every couple of days and see if the little one Responds.


But I also just put a timer on my setup, I'm putting my plant on emergency 12/12 to see if I can get it to sex quickly and perhaps even get a quick/small harvest..

good idea/bad idea?

maybe its the miracle grow with time release nutes. i bought basic miracle grow and its done fine. mind you its stretched but that was a lighting problem. i haven't had any issues with it tho. try taking some of the miracle grow out and replace it with basic soil. then water a lil. try to flush some of it out. but could be difficult. that stuff usually has enough nutes for like 9 months. good luck im subscribing. i wanna see how this goes!

Im am not very experinced myself but she looks just like some plants i threw out last week. looks like a pH problem to me. Let me guess that you are using tap water? i just posted a thread on this so hopefully i'll know more on the subject soon, but i found out that the tap water i was using was killing my plants because i repeated my grow after throwing out my sickly plants wit h natural water from a local bay(which luckily for me happens to be in my backyard). Sure enough the new plants grew 3x faster and are a nice healthy green instead of yellow. I will never again use tap water nor do i recommend it. Im going out on a limb and saying you have a pH problem. Do you know the pH of your water source?

oh yes. also emergency 12/12 is a bad idea. Any problems should be cured before going into flowering... changing the light cycle is the last thing you need to do at this point

ALRIGHT I NEED HELP ASAP::::::


To answer the questions just asked all in one


1.)I do NOT have a PH Meter (Planning on getting one)

2.) I do NOT have a thermometer (Same as above)

3.)I do NOT use tap water, I use BOTTLED water


NEW PROBLEM.

alright last night I set it on 12/12 to hopefully give it a rest and let the little beast try and recover, apparently this was a bad idea, becasue now she looks SO much worse, any help I could get would be friggen great at this point.

The soil feels DAMN dry to me, about 2/3 inches down it feels like it sticks to my finger so I don't think it's TOO dry yet, but again I need a pro to diagnose these symptoms.

I don't know if this is

A)Lack of Water
B)Nutrient burn
C)Alittle bit of both


and if the answer is C What do I do, I have mircale crap which lets more nutes out every time I water so I don't know what to do now

aw poor lil plant...sorry man. hope she pulls through. at that point i would try totally transplanting her. into new soil. and maybe a bit of water and plenty of light. even if she doesn't make it...you tried. leaving her in that obviously isn't doing any good.

yeah man, bad move should only put ur pant into 12/12 when healthy, cause it spends alot more energy tryin to flower, u may need to give up on this 1, or transplant asap i suggest rinsing roots, and dont overwater

no no no do not give up. go back and look at my posts...everyone told me to give up and i';ve improved and am quite proud that i did. dont toss it until its officially dead. its possible to save it. rinse roots and use different soil. plenty of light and keep it warm. but not too warm
