ok,first off I started totally unprepaired with almost no extra cash for the grow with no experince at all and no regular internet access to study about what I'm doing here. Also I do not have a hydro store or anywere that sells proper soil or nutes. So this is my very first grow,I'm growing 3 plants all Auto Pounder by auto seeds.the oldest 1 is 38 days old today. The other 2 is 34days old today. The oldest and worst looking 1 was transplanted 2 times and now it in a 3.96gallon pot. It is getting yellow/dead leaves on the bottom and more lime green threwout the rest of the plant with a few rust colored spots on a few leaves also. Idk if it is a serious ph issue or the fact that it transp0lanted it 2 times the second transplant she got dropped and lost a lot of her roots when she dropped so idk if it ph or bad shock or strress?? The other 2 look pretty much the same.same overall green color with no rust spots and just 2 or 3 yellow dead leaves at bottom of both plants. Why is that when I feed them the exact same nutrients and their same strain. Just the 1 looks a lot worse thqan the other 2.I have them all in schultz organic soil,using buffalmoe organic plant tea 1-1-1 and I use a little black strap mollasis every now and than. Like I said I have nowere in my area that sells soil or nutes so I'm working with what I have access to. Grown under 14 total lights for all three plants. Cfl 100 watt 6500k and 2700k. If you could please look at my pics and giive any hints thoughts anything about how they look what may be wrong and a possible yeild I might get off all 3 of them?? O yeah I have never had a ph or soil tester threw out the whole grow been using distiled water from store. I just got enough cash to finally order A.N. ph perfect micro,grow,bloom, just arrived today in mail still wating on my ph pen and soil moisture reader to arrive. Please look and give me your thoughts on problem and how they look for their age. Auto flowringn auto pounder by auto seeds. Thanks and sorry for the order that my questions and post is in just woke up

Piss on it if you're that broke. The nitrogen is needed. Keep pissing on it until the leaves darken. Come back and tell us how it smokes after you think up a name like "Skunk Piss".

Ok really start with 1/4 strength nutes. I use only AN and you chose well. 2 ML per liter (a quart for slow Americans) is full strength so 8 ML per gallon of water. Screw waiting. Mix 2 ML each of Grow A&B in one gallon of water. Squeeze the juice of 1 lemon (or add 1 teaspoon) from one of those plastic lemons along with them and water those bitches right now.

Yep this is most probably pH or nutrient problem. A pH pen or liquid tester is a must. Hope you bought the calibration liquids pH 7 and 4 to calibrate the pen because they need adjustments. After a month or two the soil has no more nutrients so you need to add some each two watering. The really yellow leaves should be cut they won't come back and it helps the plant. I don't use soil moisture reader I just wait until the plant start to lower their leaves they will tell you when they need water so you can't really over-water. They are yellowish else they look good for age.

Ok thanks guys, I will not be pissing on my plants no matter how broke iam.lol. I did not buy calabration liquids ph7 ph4 was unaware I needed them untill I read your reply telling me that. Later that day got my package opned and read it and sure enough I do need ph 7 and 4. Kinda pissed because when ordering it said nothing about having to calibrate the pen or that I would have to buy liquids to do it with. Anyway I got them ordered now hoping they hurry and get here so I can get things going atleast semi normal. The 1 that is the yellowest has stoped growing all together now?? Thanks again for the replys!!!

If you're that far out in the boonies there certainly are animal pens around with old manure. A dairy, a horse stable, some Republican's house. There's a lot of the nitrogen you need. Make sure it's composted. Old stuff usually is but not always. Best to make teas from it and feed those. Really small helping ( a few tablespoons full) of hardwood ashes added for potash. Easy on the ashes.
