Have you checked your pH? I discovered that my distilled water pH was dropping each time I opened the jug, as there was some sort of reaction with the fresh air, so aerating the water could have caused the pH to fall out of range. Just a guess, though. Good luck!

Looks like they are not drinking...dehydrated as fuck. I would add 1 tsp of Epson salts to 1 GAl of water and feed her that...might help...and if the prob did not occur before Aerating go back to what was working fine.

You could b right with the aerating, cause I have never had problems with my water, or anything until I started dumping my water into this tub & aerating the water.
I was reading where they said this was the best to do for plants when they started flowering, & like a moron I bought into it, & none of my seeds are even germinating or coming up. Thanks alot I never thought this could ever do any harm just by adding air to the ph water, I thought it would stay the same.

Ok, Im a bit lost on the cuttings...I thought they would break down naturally & help as a natural mulch ??? What will the epsom salt do, & is there anything else I can use in its place ???

I put her to bed Mon. night & when I turned on the lights Tue. morning she was just all wilted. All this wk. I have been pulling off all the dryed & really wilted leaves to see if that would help her come out of this any

What have you done so far to help the plant recover? I wouldn't keep picking leaves off, let them fall off on their own.

I have never seen that happen over night.... are you sure someone didnt add something to the plants as a revenge thing?.... or did it get super cold or something?????

How are you adding co2 to your water?..what method?..is this hydro or soil?...thought it was hydro cause why would you add co2 to soil?..it would be lost before dumping the solution in... I may have read this wrong, and if so I do apologize.

Yeah, it seems funny that your plant would go south that quick. I'd make sure nobody fucked with her. Post this in plant problems you may get more input. My guess frozen or poisoned to happen overnight. Good luck!

Basically just flushing the hell out of her & taking off the sick looking leaves... I guess I should just trash this one & start on some new ones the way I always do them & quit trying new things & ideas... I have been looking at this 4 gal. 4 hole hydro deep well bubbler system to try something different & see if I can get more faster... Anyone have any knowlege with these, or any advice on doing a system like these for cheaper than their price of $40.00.....Now I just use 4 gal. buckets of soil & CFL's & stick mostly to autos, but I have a shit load of freebie seeds that arnt autos so was looking to try something different & also see if the autos would do any better in water

Whatever big trick you may have tried three days ago has killed her - did that once to a few plants while using vinagar to modify PH. I'd just start over on this plant.

Im growing in soil, but was reading that aerating the water during flowering makes them grow faster & put out more, so thats what I tried...But now Im looking at turning my tub into a hydro bubbler of sorts & seeing them for $40.00 & debating on ordering one to do something different

I airate the water for a good 30 minutes before watering. It's not going to hurt one bit. Someone sprayed weed killer on your shit bro.

If you can't keep the soil plant alive hydro is not going to suit you better. How did you aerate the water exactly?

I used an aquarium pump with dual outlets & 2 8in. stones in a plastic tub of water I had pre Ph.... I think Im just going to keep with what has been working & my autos, its much easier than changing lights & all this other, just go 24 hrs light until last month then cut her to 20 hrs. in soil
