Started my very first grow about 2 months ago, no experience other than what I read online. Everything started out ok, planted one special queen, one amnesia and one white widow x big bud. All did well the first week. Then not quite sure what happened to the W.W. x B.B. Growth stunted leaves shriveling, roots not growing. I didn't know what I did or what to do. Being my first time I refused to toss anything. Kept up nutes and water and light as normal, now my special queen and amnesia are a normal week 5 veg and my WW x BB is at about the same stage my second round of plants are at ( week 3 day 1). Growth was stunted for the first 3 weeks while she recovered, but now growth is on track for a week 3 veg. I just wanted to share my experience and say that with a little TLC, what you think is a goner, may not be( unless you have a male then your just fuxxed )

Poor sad little plant(middle if you can even see it) this was about 4-5 weeks ago.

I will tell you though, this has been the funkiest looking plant, size wise she is week 3 growth wise you can tell she's a little further than 3 weeks...

Yah i posted it here at riu...and everyone told me it would not survive and start a new one. Problem is i didnt have a new seed of that ...was the only one i had at that time.
It was not topped on purpose. ..it fell or shelf and topped it self...took a few weeks for it to start a new shoot...i was amazed that it came back! downloadfile-213.jpegdownloadfile-250.jpegdownloadfile-180.jpegdownloadfile-232.jpegdownloadfile-375.jpeg

That's not bad Lime73 wait until I get home and I will show you bad lol. Have one that's damped off (for the last 2 weeks I think) and I have just been letting it do it's thing to see if it may recover it looks amazingly bad lol. Scoped it 400x and it has these little white balls all over the tips of the leaves are black and necrotic not to mention curled to the stem it's an amazing thing to behold!

Hmm interesting, clone...didn't think of that..too stoned. Plus I had ordered some seeds, herbies fuxxed up as did the vault, ended up with double seeds in the end, now I have like 40+ only ordered 8. I've been popping three seeds every 2 weeks to get the perpetual harvest going but, I think I'll try cloning her...to see if the non stunted version is better than the stunted version.

Ok here it is shouldn't post these pics should prob delete and never speak of them lol... So this little girl has been frozen in time for about two weeks now damped off no roots figured she would have died long ago and I could just ditch her. But she is frozen not getting worse if that's even possible and not dying and I don't need her spot ATM so just seeing what happens. i know she shoulden't be in the system with no roots as it causes what roots she has to not grow because they have water. But ultimately I want to see what happens until i need the space then will get rid of her if she hasn't done something. first pic is just the plant (took with color corecting glasses not getting her near my other test in case) other two are about 400x showing the strange white balls and necrotic leaf tipsIMG_3928.JPG WIN_20170125_18_14_17_Pro.jpg WIN_20170125_18_15_22_Pro.jpg

Ive noticed that they will be stunted a bit and sometimes never catch up to other plants...but they do pull through on their own time...if you dont give up ...or harm them more ;)

Runts have made some of the best hunting dogs I ever had. Runts have also been some of the best weed I ever had.
