PLANT MOISTURE STRESS aka leaf edge/tip curling - symptoms and solutions

When I lived in the desert, my son came to visit and he found a seed in one of his buds. He gave it to me; I merely put it in my sandy garden and I swear, in prob. less than 2 weeks that plant was 4 feet tall. All I did was water it, No nutes, nada. It was a beautiful green, healthy as all get out. Time of year was spring. Unfortunately, I had a gopher that was digging holes all over my lawn, and one day I was standing in my kitchen, marvelling at the the plant from my window when suddenly it starts shaking, then dissapears into the ground. I couldn't believe it. Moral of my story?: don't stress; plant it and it will grow; keep gophers away, BTW: never saw the gopher again. It musta passed out for the summer. I'm not being glib but honestly this is a weed. Weeds are stroooong. Every gardner knows that. Meaning: they bounce back easily and survive all sorts of conditions if not too harsh (such as pothead gophers). I bet that gopher IS STILL passed out, enjoying his gopher dreams

Good story Onegaes! You're right. I've never seen so many people screw up growing such an easy to grow plant in my life. Ya might say they push them to death.

I've seen plants that were 4 or 5 feet tall, ran over by a four-wheeler, and tore up and squashed flat, and it continued to grow along the ground, like a vine.
I've pulled up males growing outdoors in the woods,, and threw them far away, in a pile to come back in a few days and see it took root into the hard ground, just to stay alive. They are very hardy.

my problem is the only soil mixes you can find, or I've found on here and other tutorials either have potting soils(foxfarms,promix,etc) that can not be bought in my location, or the rest of them are way to strong to start out in. This last soil mix I made was soiles with 5% worm castings, 10%was to strong. With my experience marijuana is a very tender plant. Right now it seems everything is alright.

I was just wondering how often you suggest flushing my medium to get rid of excess salt build up. What steps are involved in flushing my soil? What is the best ph to have the water at when i am doing this?

thanks for the great post

Depends on the amount of salts (plant food) you're giving them and your water source's quality. If you use little plant food and rainwater, not very often. If you're heavy handed on the salts and your water is hard, then perhaps every third fertilizing. Depends on the organics in your soil too. Your call.

Water until you get a good runoff from the drain holes.

Don't worry about it. Soil is a powerful buffer. The pH of your water source will have little to NO long term effect.

Airstones in the res are for O2 not Co2.
