hey guyz heum I've just started to start growing Opium from Paradise-Seeds.com

The plant is light green, was dark green when the first 2 leaves apeared
Some brown is forming in the middle section of the two bottom leaves
the two top leaves look healthy but the plant is growing at a very slow rate

Now ive looked everywhere, Ive found that it could be either Iron or Manganese problem, but the soil is new...

But ive explained it at a plant shop ad they told me it might be Fungie, Has anyone ever experienced this?View attachment 1181143View attachment 1181144View attachment 1181145View attachment 1181146

i made a spray mix of water and Rootz and sprayed it on the soil (the girl from the plant shop told me to)

GOOD OR BAD move?

Bad move. Most people dont know that your plants can feed themselves by converting oxygen into carbon, and light into sugars and hormones. I would VERY carefully break the sediment around your roots and replant your plant into new soil. It has enough root structure to where you don't need a starter plug. If you would like to boost its growth, you can trick it into gulping a bunch of nutrients at once by giving it plenty of ventilation and giving it only water until you have a plant strong and hungry then just mix your nutes sparingly into a watering recepticle and give it some nutes and then in a couple days give it just water. then you could give it more mix nutes... couple days go by... give it only water... yada yada.. repeat..

^Agreed, looks thirsty. The soil also looks awfully compact, as well. If you want a sure fix, transplant to a soil with good drainage(lots of perlite), water, then wait. The plant will fix itself, with no risk of overfert, for example. There's other ways to fix it, but they also increase the risk of fucking up.lol Being that you're new to the game, a transplant is the best option, IMO. It's a guaranteed fix. :)

hahaha, no just that at first it was very weak when i put the fan there, so i had to add a holder

and I know its not thirsty,

I guess it can be Overeffort,

I'm Using Promix peat quality soil, what else should i mix in?

Well i suggested you dont use the ROOTZ and that you transplant them to new soil and wait to add nutes until after you flush them with water. And im pretty sure thats what your going to do. So just think those thoughts next time.. no need for calling me out..

I'm sorry, I guess i felt harassed by all the comments, but i'm going to see what i can do, maybe post some photos if everything goes good.

anyways, thanks for the advice mates

*I'm going to wait a bit to see if the ROOTZ did anything, since its a fungicide, it should clear the virus, if its a virus,
because i've got a feeling my soil is not that compact.

But I apologize Hoag

They don't need nutes, they need soil(with around 20% perlite) and moisture, so they can feed. These have had no nutes yet, except for Calmag and some foliar feeding, both started about 2 weeks ago......

First off, let me just say that we're not picking on ya, we're just trying to get you pointed in the right direction. There's nothing wrong with fucking-up, we all do it, have done it, and will continue to do it.lol All you can really do about it, is acknowledge it, learn from it, then move on. Always keep an open mind, even when think you're right. :)

Okay, that being said.... :wink:

....I have to ask....how did you go about adding the perlite? Also, I should've specified, but what I was getting at, when I said "transplant, for a sure fix" was that you needed to go with bigger pots, for all of them. One gallon size, would be perfect, at this point.

whell, when i took it out of the container, i Noticed that the soil was extremely compact, and also the plants roots where all stuck in the same place (probably because of the soil compactness)
anyways, i shook the dirt off my little baby, put in another container, add perlite, and transplant.
I didnt transplant into another container because the rootz werent developed yet, probably from the lack of space and oxigen, and probly water wasnt going through either.
anyways, I have a feeling this is all going to be better now, thanks guyz :)
