Overwater?

so about 2 weeks ago i transplanted into 3 gallon pots, and waterd (about 2 litres each). Then a 6-7 days later i t was time to water again, the plant pot was light, about 7 pounds. This time i wanted to water until i got runoff, so i did just that. It took about a 7 1/2 litres of water per plant to get runoff(which seemed like a crazy high amount). The soil is still pretty wet underneath 7 days after water, and one of the plants is showing symptoms.. of something, presumably over water. Because with brown spots there is droopings

havnt been using any cal mag or micro nutes. Just 10-2-12 organic, blackstrap molasses, and hummeca(from same company as fert, Ocean gold)

Thanks for imput, jael

hi
im new to forum but not to growing...
your cfl lights do not produce great lighting, therefore the nutes you added are killing the plant. i see n one of your other post someone gave you good advice, but you are adding nutes?
your in soil......DO NOT add nutes... we only add when actually buds are there, with big 1000w lights the plant can use it. with cfl , no way , keep the leaves in "pray" mode is so key....
you did overwater it because you dont have the lighting to use all that water, its also overfeed.
here how you fix it..........
1. all those leaves on the bottom of the plant need to come off. way too much transpiring going on there.. cut bottom up 10-12 leaves a day till you are at new growth about half that plant.
IF leaves dont get light... it is a burden to the plant...simple
2. slowly poke something into the soil to make 1/2 inch holes deep into the soil, back end of a plastic mixing spoon works good. several holes spaced around, this is for air your plant desperately needs.
3 . a fan blowing into the dirt. a clip-on fan right on the pot or whatever u can rig

what is the temp in room????
ganga likes to be warm, 72-79 if its colder they will not pray
they like to be 5-7 degrees colder when the light is off.
humidity is as important as temp.

If you are a female grower please insert your index finger into the soil to a depth of 2 inches, 50mm to determine whether or not your plant requires water, if you are a male grower just use you penis, either way thick veins as you have, indicate extreme and excessive watering, do not over do it ...Mj don't like wet feet 1 time per week at most 150ml per liter, no nutes for at least 3-4 weeks

So, when I stick my wang into the dirt should it feel completely saturated, or just damp?

im not sure if im doing it right, should i be erect? sll send you a picture later. Its weird tho, my other plant shows no signs of over watering, the leaves are completely straight, and i watered it just as much. So, if i over watered in one watering(which ididnt think was possible) should i not try to get run off? I didnt evne get 10% runoff, but i did think using 1.5 gallons of water in a 3 gallon plant pot.. was way way to much water..

you have a Phosphorus deficiency going on.

Good Luck on Your Grow

The roots are nowhere near that deep yet

phosperious def huh. i planned on starting flowering in like a week, hsould i just start adding the flowering nutes asap?

so its phos def? or nut burn? some1 else told me it was mag. Also, was told me after a week its def under waterered the root area would be completely dry even if 2 inches under soil is still damp... while it seems to show signs of overwater... im really confused

looks like it's either calMag or good old epsomsalts (MgSO4) everything else looks ok, good call on the molasses

where is the new pic showing that u cut off some of those fan leaves?????????????????
u put a fan very close also, show us

im got a small fan closer but havent pruned yet, was waiting for some more input. im so noob but i TIHNK i may know what has happened. when i watereed the plants with the 7 1/2 liters, this one one stayed wet and blocked oxygen intake. (from watering to big of a zone where when the roots where only in the center of the recently re-planted pot) so the root zone was dry after 4-5 days.. Then i got the droop.. cuz they wanted water even though alot of the soil was still very wet(blocking the the oxygen). So the plant was being suffecated and starved. This make sense? Input?

And everyone, no disrespectect inteded if i dont follow all your advice immediately. I am so new and theres is so much contridictoary information out there, just trying to get as many educated opinions as i could get.

well i'm right.
i grew pot that looked like that for months upon months. then i figured out what was wrong with it

keep the old leaves on they'll be ok. leave them on unless they have no green left. i would go with epsom it's cheaper than calMag and a bag will last you an eternity. i don't like the smell of calmag, epsom you can drink although i don't encourage it unless they're something medically wrong with you

here are some pictures of Phosphorus deficiency. The purple discoloration on your leafs are the indicator of this deficiency.
Purple stems are also an indicator, but not always present.
As to why you have the (P) deficiency. It could be over watering, soil, pH to high/low.
Marijuana Loves Phosphorus. Some Strains more than others.

You do have some lower leaves that do look like a Calcium deficiency starting.
IMO- Give your plants a dose of Cal/Mag every month even if they look healthy.
It's a good preventative measure. A lot of peoples plant problems are Cal/Mag

Good Luck on Your Grow.

This looks like a cal-mag def, maybe you should consider a supplement

Likely have over watered, so my advise is to go by the weight of the plant, let the base go feather light before watering

Epsom salts have a lot of medicinal qualities. Good to have around the house

yeah i think i did too.. but like in one sitting.. i think i tried to get runoff to soon after transplant or something. because the plant was good and dry i watered.. but just doesnt see mto want to get dry. My other plant has same soil/pot, i used same amount of water(7 1/2 liters) and dried in about 7 days.

recent pictures of the plant ,by request. thanks for help

Edit, I should note these are battle scars. Haven't been getting worse for past couple days.
