LOL, to know the bird is to love the bird. He's a force of nature



Yes, we were due for a field trip. A little cultural broadening helps open minds. Overall I think this went well. We stamped out ignorance and saved a guys plant. I count that a solid win.

That's great news! I am so glad she is feeling better. Been foliar feeding mine cal-mag because she is needing calcium do to over watering. Seems like the soil is almost dry. I have been raking the topsoil a lot so it will dry faster. Think I am going to get something for the roots tomorrow. Just not sure if I should get something like Earth Juice Bio Righteous or Bio Earth Zeus.
Has anyone used either of these? How about Earth Juice Rooters Mycorrhizae? Just wondering because I want to make sure I don't get root rot after the over watering incident.

Well the girlfriend took the camera to a graduation so unfortunately I have to wait untill tomorrow to do another photo opp. Yea I probably am over loving her. It is all because I used cheap soil that hold the moister like crazy. I mean she looks great. I will upload pics tomorrow to show you. I have just been having trouble with the new tops being really yellow. I foliar feed her some cal mag and it gets better in a couple hours.
I have added some to the soil and had to add some organic dolomite lime as well for PH. The lime has calcium and magnesium but, she is just not taking it up. I did only give her about half the recommended dose for both since they both contain calcium and magnesium. Didn't want her to burn. This all started because I missed a feeding and she got cranky.
Sorry for the entire story. Just thought a little background info would help. I used miracle grow organic mixed with old used soil and a bunch of perlite.
Learned my lesson with shitty soil that is lacking in many ways. BTW I am down to 1 plant now because this morning my other one spit out some balls. (rooster in the hen house) lol.
I know this one is female because she has had a calyx for about a week now and is now showing more and spitting out little hairs. I have not started flowering yet so wow I thought. Pretty cool that she showed sex at just 5 weeks. I thought it took at least 6 weeks for them to be mature enough.
Anyways I built a scrog roughly 18" by 22" that is half filled with her so I am not sad about having only one left.

I brought my plant indoors for 36 hours to start the flowering phase. I've been doing 12/12 light for two days now. The newer leaves are getting a little better but some are still browning. This is my first plant ever. It's outdoors I keep it shaded sometimes due to high heat outside. I use regular water to water it. And am using miracle grow moisture control. Could it be from foreign debris on the leaves from being in my closet for 36 hours? Or heat stress? Anyone please? Also should I remove the dying leaves or let nature work it's magic ?View attachment 3951707 View attachment 3951709 View attachment 3951713

Hello there looks like it has way too much phosphorus and needs nitrogen. You should try a soil test kit they have them at Amazon for $7 or your local Walmart might have one mine has them.Test your npk and soil pH that will tell you a lot. Make sure you use distilled water when you test your soil pH. You can always go the other route and repot that plant with decent soil don't use Miracle Gro. But you might be okay if you simply test your soil and make an adjustment. Either way that plant is too small and fragile to try to put into flower. I would keep it inside and switch it back over to veg and get your soil right until it recovers.

Best thing to do for your roots now..Kelp extract - 5 ml a gallon

Kelp has micro's, B vit's, Amino acids and Fulvic Acids (Humic is in the Fulvic chain).

Several college studies show the use of Kelp in any form to increase root growth by as much as 173%.
It's use will also supply the things missing in your plant and that soil.

Just saying, with happy frog & ocean as options why would anyone use miracle grow? That's the first thing I was told to stay away from. Even when I read up from seasoned growers the advice was always ..... stay clear of that crappy ass soil. Someone's in their feelings over this I see lol.

Here is an older picture taken a week ago when I tried to flush water through her. BTW didn't work even after 3 gallons it barley ran through. I have not watered since and the soil is still pretty moist. And yes she had a little heat stress too but, that is better now.

I am trying compensate for this crappy soil. I just should have done more homework and got the proper nutrients and stuff. I have worked for a grower in the past however, the soil mix we used was all organic and made from scratch. I would do the same but, it cost so much to make the soil he was putting together.
Those plant were like taller than me. So I am not really use to have such little plants either. I use to have to water those plants every day. Of course my main job was taking care of the flower rooms. Anyways before that I only did hydro.
