I have 4 purple power plants that are about 2 and 1/2 months old. I moved them outdoors a couple of weeks ago because they were becoming root bound etc. and I didn't really have room for them. They were grown on the windowsill, not under lights. Recently, a few of the leaves have been yellowing...

Planning on moving these outside and into the soil in the next couple of days. They've been on the windowsill and not under lights, Just looking for tips on how to transplant, and how to make sure they survive out there. Also any input on how they're doing would be appreciated.. They're nearly...

I was using usual tap water so that would make sense, should I leave the water to sit for a while to let the chlorine evaporate? I only learned this recently so yeah... If chlorine is affecting the pH what should I do to change it?

When I topped mine I guess I noticed normal proper growth about a week afterwards, maybe less. Also, being a noob I expected it to grow from where I'd cut the stalk, but it actually grows from the two new growths just below where you cut. From what I've heard it's pretty hard to do it wrong...

If that's the case how come they've been fine with the soil they're in for over a month and this has only become apparent recently and on only two of them? I think the compost might have been pre-mixed with soil anyway, because it's basically planting soil.. I originally thought it was nute...

About a month and a half old, sunlight, water when the top soil seems dry about an inch down, gave it a tiny bit of miracle grow 6-5-5 plant food about a week ago, diluted way more than the label said just in case, the soil is just usual compost from the local garden store I guess, not quite...

As you can see, some of the leaves on this plant are turning brown and shrivelling up/drooping. Anyone know what this could be? I've used nutrients on it once (less than the label recommended) and I originally thought it was a nutrient overdose, because it had only happened to the one plant I...

Thing is it's only started today and on the one plant that I gave nutes. A couple of the leaves lower down literally look like they're about to fall off they're drooping so much, and look brown all over. The spots don't just look like colour either, they're more like craters, so I'm assuming...

Basically earlier today my plant has started to develop small yellow spots on the higher leaves and larger brown spots/patches on the lower leaves. They are also drooping quite severely. I couldn't get a photo of the lower leaves but here are the top ones. Only 1/4 of my plants has got these...

oh hey. Dude realistically what kind of yield am I going to get if I keep them indoors in bigger containers?

Should I start giving them nutes yet? If so what kind would be good for veg?

Currently growing 4 purple power plants on my windowsill, Basically just wondering whether it's worth using any techniques such as topping etc at this stage The photos are of one of the plants but the others look exactly the same The reason they're leaning is because of the sunlight being on...

Not a huge amount, should be ok for now though at least. It's a huge south facing window and I live on a south facing hill so it gets as much sunlight as a window is possible to get pretty much. I plan to move them outside if I run out of space or they need more sunlight, trouble is I live in...

I could be overwatering them, I usually wait until the top few centimetres have dried out, then water. Is that too much? How often should I water them at this stage? I should be able to buy some nitrogen on Thursday, and will be transplanting them at the same time, I can only really use normal...

Should be able to buy some new pots on Thursday bongsmilie what size should I buy so that I don't have to transplant them again?
