Just because the pH of your water is safe doesnt mean it is when it goes through the soil. You need to check the water coming out of the bottom of the pot. I've seen people use water pH'd at 6.8 and it come out the bottom at 5.0.

Since you have to use a swampcooler to a/c, could you maybe use a dehumidifier in your grow area? Or maybe sand on top of your soil? Since sand is supposed to kill off the fungus nats?

If its not broken it should be fine. Some people train thier plants by bending the stem, not breaking it. This in turn should make the plant focus more energy on this part of the plant and enhance it. At least thats what I've read. I accidently bent the main stem on 1 of my plants, and it made a...

I 3rd this. Most likely a pH prob causing some sort of lockout. My guess would be a cal/mag issue. Check your runoff pH. Heres a nice chart I borrowed from streetlegal:

^^^^Yeah^^^^^ The plant will naturally remove damaged leaves. I let it drain what it can outta the leaf, and like jaw said, I give them a slight tug, and if they come off, it was time. Otherwise, I just let the plant get as much use out of the leaves as it can. Im 2 weeks into flowering and some...

Im assuming your using CFL's since I see a clamp on that pot, so I'll rule out heat stress. Well it might be a pH problem. Do you know your pH? And you said you were over watering. Might be a little too much N, cause I believe plants will twist and curl like that from too much N, and I can see...

Not really sure wtf those things are, but just a heads up. Grasshoppers will eat each other. So just because its eating another bug, it still might want a piece of your plants!

The browning could be somewhat of a pH prob causing a lockout of some sort. Could be a cal/mag def too. The yellowing leaves could be from lack of N or maybe they arent getting as much light now and the plants just naturally removing them. The size of the pots could cause problems but it depends...

You can bake your buds in an oven at 300 degrees for 15 minutes and that "should" kill the mold. I also read somewhere that someone used canned air and the cold temps apparently killed the spores. But you never know with stoners. :joint:

I dont know anything about autoflowers, but Ive seen much bigger plants in cups, so you should be able to last another week. edit: As for the burn look, it might be from your lights cooking what water was on your leaves, Ive had this happen a time or 2 with my outdoor plants.

Dont mention it. Keep me updated on your plants!!!

I wouldnt try to remove the dirt from around the roots, theres a good chance you could tear/damage the roots. Just put that root ball in some good soil, and the roots will make it outta that crap dirt. As far as nutes go, I would NOT recommend hitting that thing with full strenght nutes. Its so...

Thats kinda up to you. Some people say give it 1/4 nutes after a flush, I usually wait for it to dry out cause I figure its hurting enough as it is.

A chart I got off of a post by streetlegal.

Basically. I would do the old lift test. If it feels light when you pick it up, water it. I usually stick my finger about 1 1/2 inces in the soil to see how dry it is, but my pots are buried in the ground. But me personally, I would up the nute dosage to prob half strenght and see how they take...

They should be able to handle the 50's and survive, but a few nights in the 40's and they'll be done for.

Feeding every 10-14 days at 1/4 strenght seems a bit like underfeeding to me. I use organic nutes and I feed everytime I water(bout every other day) course my nutes arent a 10-50-10 either :P edit: And I think plants start the uptake of P at around 6.2 or so, so it coulda been a lockout due to...

If your worried about pressing the buds, maybe get some thumbtacks and put them in the wall and tie string around the branches to keep them from being pressed.

Thanks for the link. Im gonna give that stuff a try.

Yeah they are eating the leaves.
