If you help me I will glady give rep.

I have 5 plants, 2 problems

problem #1
Might be "K" problem???
It's the first pic, 2 weeks into flowering she fucks up, 2 others are going no probs. Did fert it a little shouldn't have been 2 much I used less than half as directed and only 2 times.

The other 4 were in a hydro farm and I had to move them to soil. Gave water with GH FloraGro at about half strength which they had been on in the hydro.

I have no clue what is going on and Im pretty worried, they were great before I transplanted them. They had HUGE roots, could they just be in shock??

Thanks for the help.

yes that could be it right there shock..
when did u transplant it?
and from the hydro growing and soil growing they are different water PH's
so make sure those are right too.

those have nute burn and possibly a ph imbalance or both. the issue may have been that the soil had preexisting ferts present as most soils do then with the ferts you added its too much. you may want to get a flush product like clearex and always make sure ph is proper.

its not transplant shock normally with that they droop and stop growing for a while but you have crispy burnt leaves you may have shocked the plant as well if much roots were lost but that does not account for the burned leaves.

There wasn't any fert in the soil, I used new soil mix without any. I used the GH nutes at half strength to water them after transplant and thats the only fert they have.

I'll do a ph test but I used my probe and it was right up the middle of 7 (my plants in flowering show the same on it)

Their roots were VERY VERY long and big so I dunno what I did.
I think I go ate up with dumb ass.... lol
I was drunk as hell when I did it, Im not a sloppy drunk or anything, but when I am I think I can do anything... Maybe not farm...

Fafard 3S mix
55% canuk peat
perlite
pine bark

I add
vermiculite
worm castings

It's for use on seedlings even.
I am a new grower but I've used it before and my flowring plants are using the same as well.

strange maybe the root ball got injured significantly its just unusual how the leaves look for transplant shock. i have noticed when plants go from hydro to soil they have issues.

Yeah I'm seriously wondering if that's what happened, maybe I should just leave them the hell alone and let them do what they do, they want to live if I let them they just might.... Doesn't seem to be getting any worse anymore....

do what you said leave them be its irritating but they will come back. when i have had similar issues i put them out of view so i cant see them and get pist. give them a week or two and they will come back they would be dead already if the damage was severe.

I added 2 100/26W 6500k CFL's so that should help a little I'm sure.

I've been reading "The Cannabis Grow Bible" front to back and I just read "Also refrain from feeding them for 1 week if you
can." yeah I probably should have and "Transplant shock is caused by a disturbance of the roots. If the roots
are cut or fall down, the plant does not respond well to this."

Doesn't that explain the shock AND burn signs???

I should just leave em b, they seem better this morning anyway, def not getting worse.
I'll get more 6500K CFLs that seems to be the best fix now...

dont cut fan leaves there solar panels for the plant especially in veg. when i transplant i simply flip the pot on its side if in soil or hempy and tap the bottom of the bucket the whole thing pops out if you have complete root growth i then carefully place it into a bigger container this way there is no shock at all and they continue growing normally.

I didnt think it was smart to cut them, but what about if they are more than 50% damaged?

I took NPK reading today any thoughts?

Happy 4th of July

i misunderstood removing mostly dead or dying leaves is a good thing imo. as far as your tests i have used many test kits in the aquarium industry but im confused as to what the indicator is on your kits? what did the results reveal? also make sure the test kits your using are not too old as the reagents break down overtime and give improper readings.

I got those at a garden supply store, and I bought them about 5 weeks or so ago.
Ok, the lower leaves are really fuked so I will remove them on 1 plant and see what happens and if it is ok tomorrow I will do the same to the others.

Well Im gonna grill some steaks and get us all baked HAPPY 4th!!!
