fed the plant about 3 days ago and then saw these signs and symptoms:
curling leaves
yellow near the main veins in the leaves
plant drooping as if overwatered
the plant has been fed up until now on baby bio in low doses and then switched to some blood fish and bone stuff and thats when the problems started. i have a feeling it is overfed so i flushed it once until water ran out the bottom of the pot and i was just goin to leave it and let the plant do its own thing.
its an adopted plant from a mate and has had a hard time up until now..i dont know ph levels..humidity or temp but its growing under a cfl bulb and gets sunlight (when its sunny).
it is about a week into flowering, its watered when the soil is dry so about every 3-4 days maybe. let me know what you think i should do..
it might look waterlogged cos i flushed it yesterday..theres gravel in the bottom of the pot which should help with the drainage as well..do you think i should transplant when the plant is that stressed?
Transplanting now should not stress it anymore than it already is in my opinion. You transplant when plants are stressed from being root bound so I do not see much of a difference. But I would wait until the soil is dry from you flushing them because it is a bitch to transplant with wet soil...
yeah i've had to transplant once before because its an adopted plant. Should i stick with the same size of pot or go bigger? as you can probably tell its very low budget grow an im not expecting a huge yield but its a pretty sweet hobby with pretty sweet rewards!
my plant is looking far worse today than the above pics..all i can do now is wait and hope she makes it!piece of advice..blood fish and bone seems far too strong to give to your plants..i only used about a quarter strength because i had no idea how strong it was and tried to play it safe..it turns out it was still rocket fuel..im not giving up yet though!
Don't give up the plant is a weed and weeds, as you can tell from your yard I am sure, are resilient. She may withstand your overdose. You mentioned in your first post that you flushed it until water ran out the bottom that is good but not perfect. I flush my plants once a month and when they are in 5 gallon buckets I flush them with 10 to 15 gallons of a mild nutrient solution until the water comes out almost clear in the bottom of the pot. You may not have flushed them enough and they are experiencing some salt buildup or overdose still... Keep me posted as to their progress and good luck.
ill try flushing again then..this time with more water. thanks for the advice..im hoping that this weed plant is as resilient as the rest. ill keep you posted man.
what should i do? pretty much all of the leaves are screwed and the stem at the top is starting to thin and bend..i posted a new thread with the same pics yesterday but cant seem to find it now!
