No do not prune any leaves..especially with that small plant

Your on week 3 and its that small? Check the ph level of your soil, that might be your problem.
looks like its to acidic

what should i use to bring the ph up?

you need to get PH test strips or a test kit to test the acidity of the water, before you just go raising the PH

test the water and the runoff(runoff PH is more important when your using nutes)

do you let your water sit for atleast a day? this lowers the PH and lets the chlorine dissipate

you should water when the soil is dry, your plant was def overwatered last week, glad to see its better and growing fast

remember to only use 1/4 strength nutes when you start and use a feeding cycle like "feed water water feed"

Thx yeah Im goin today or tomorrow to get a Ph tester. and yes i let my water sit for at least a day. Is runoff the water that trickles out from the buttom when its watered?

My very first leaves are starting to fall off so Im going to introduce my nutes now very soon at 1/4 the strength and every 3rd watering. They are fast acting 30-10-10.

I also have some dead skin like material pealing from the cannabis main shaft/trunk. Is this normal?

its not really stealth if you let the world know how its packaged

klassenkid · #16 08-19-2009, 10:49 AM

Yeah sorry i edited it.

I checked my ph and my water im giving it is on the 7.5 side, I couldnt get the runoff checked because my plant isnt big enough to the potsize for there to be enough water that it comes out the drainage holes. Should I just start adding my nutes to make it balance? Im on day 29 and I will give some pictures here tomorrow. Its been growing like a bastard the last few days. My first first pair of leaves are yellow and withering.

I now have a bubblicious also at 4 days (from germination) Its feminized so I will be expecting this one to give me some medical ganja.

From now on I will call my month old cannabis "Mystery Jane" and the Bubblicious.............Bubblicious.

August 19 I used fertilizer for the first time with 1/4 strength on Mystery Jane. Using 25-10-10.

Coments and good advice please! plus rep ++

It is starting to come around. I wish I could give you more help. I'm growing outdoors and know nothing about indoors. I can tell you that they are staring to look good though. Subscribed and will continue to monitor.
