will mirical grow help it
no it will most likely kill it try foxfarms line of nutes (grow big, big bloom, tiger bloom) or if you dont have access to a local hydro shop some nutes with a npk rating of 10-10-10, 20-20-20, 20-10-10, anything along those lines (keep in mind these are ratios, so 20-10-10 is the same as 10-5-5, get it?)

your plants are hungry... and they also need more light...

are you flowering..?

Since you have made it this far without pHing your water... your should be fine...

dilute your nutrients and start flowering...

That first picture is incredible..

that plant is something special.. LOL... It is so tall and lanky and couldn;t harvest a gram.. and yet it is so freaking beautiful in its very own way...

the leaves in YOUR CASE... are yellow because it is hungry as a mofo.. it is DYING for nitrogen... feed slowly!!! lots of water with small nutrients..

the nodal spacing is atrocious because of lack of light... a plant with 4 - 6 nodes should be 4-8 inches tall.... you have a plant that is STRETCHING.. classic stretching...


It looks exactly like one of the first plants I ever grew. with almost the same lught set up.. LOL...

rep+ for a GREAT photo..

Hey man,

You asked us what we thought of Miracle Grow, and someone said it was bad.. Why did you still use it??? Regular fish emulsion from wal-mart is all you need (but dont get it from wal-mart because their evil). Miracle Grow is no good! A good analogy would be to compare it to crack. It gives your plant a quick perk, then it crashes hard, looks hungry, and you have to feed it again. Synthetic fertalizers are bad man. Simply put. Fish emulsion, seaweed extract, bat guano, worm castings, etc is the direction you need to look. Not some overpriced shit that will kill your plants or give you some harsh smoke. But ultimatly its your call, I am just telling you my opinion. :peace:

I think you addressed the main plant problems of of needing more light and nitro but what about the red stems?

ure plany is way to long for how many nodes it has lol!!! i suggest on your next plant to make sure u get more nitrogen and plenty more sun light. i doubt you'll get a high yield with that plant but u never know after a while if u start doing things right u could help it out a little
