Still some persistent yellowing on fan leaves. It’s mid summer here still so plant is still in veg. Been adding lots of magnesium sulphate and got rid of all the bugs but the yellowing with some black and brown spots continues. I have watered with N and used bloom fertilisers and mixed them all together. I will be going away for around 2 months so I won’t be able to PH water or use fertilisers so I’m just going to use a all purpose 7-7-7 before I go away feed it we’ll and put the water timer on for every few days.

Ya I didn't see the zoomed out shot before, re-pot that plant. Or put it straight in the dirt in the ground. The skinny leaves could be heat stress from the wall heating up.

Re-pot or put in ground and move it away from that wall. :mrgreen:

Will be put into a bigger pot tomorrow and will move away from The brick wall. Thank you

Most definitely is root bound for sure. It’s been in that pot for awhile now but it’s the biggest pot I have so will need to go out and get another bigger one tomorrow. The roots are coming out the bottom as well so yes it could likely be the pot size. With the mag I put 5g per L of water so 6l of water with 5g per L.
Been adding bloom fertiliser which is high in P so I’m not sure what’s going on there.

The plant does stay mostly in that spot but do move it onto grass every few days and do turn it around. It would likely get very hot as some days heat gets to 30 degrees and high 20s.

wow you say 5 grams per liter of water ????
Like do you mean like 5 grams per quart of water do I got that right.

Thanks man! Will put the epsom salt in the next watering. Just picked off all the yellowing leaves and with thrived, can I just leave it? Or do I need rock do something about it ASAP?

I’m just using a tomato fertiliser (14-1-9)
And occasionally might add a bloom fertiliser to make sure there isn’t any deficiencies with PK and that is (0-2-14)
Thanks.

This is what you say you feed it wheres the p at again???

What ppm are you feeding it at ???????

Okay I may have made a mistake ahaha I’ll check the container tomorrow. It was 1.5g or 5g I cannot remember ahahah.
Okay another mistake the fertiliser I’m using is high in K not P ahaha shit! Cannot seem to find a fertiliser high in K so I might just use a all purpose which has equal NPK

It was 1.5g or 5g I cannot remember ahahah. === either way if that is per liter its the WRONG amount. It cant be 5 grams thats crazy. Im saying five grams, not point five grams (1/2 gram) cuz thats what you posted.

I’m using is high in K not P ahaha shit!===fucking- A awww shit. better off with the just the 7/7/7 shit you have.

I take it you dont have a ppm meter? An experienced grower in dirt that knows wtf their doing can get by without one but a new grower its the most valuable tool to provide a consistent feed to the plant.

You don't have to go high in anything. Kelp has a K value of about 1, and can do wonders.

I'm not sure exactly how you'll be feeding the 7-7-7 while away for 2 months, but I'd recommend potting straight into the ground and feeding your 7-7-7 and watering every other day or so.

By planting in the ground you will avoid a lot of nutrient/pH fluctuations, and provide a much better buffer for your plants, especially if you can't look after them for 2 months.

I'd still give them a spray of the miticide if you have it, but if it were me and I was leaving for 2 months she'd be in the ground. Much better buffer.

Fish bone meal is high in P.
Worm castings will feed slowly for awhile.

Check this out here, theres pics, its super easy, just scroll down a bit :bigjoint:

So I have transplanted my plant into the soil now. Dig a pretty deep and wide hole and filled it with a good quality potting mix. The soil on the top doesn’t look the best but like 20mm below it is all the 100L good potting mix soil with perlite.

I gave a feeding with some solid all purpose fertiliser and used 6.7ph water and watering every other day. As I’m going away I’ll have a timer for once a day to sprinkle water around my garden and should be enough especially that it’s summer now. Sadly that means I won’t be able to PH the water as it comes direct from the tap. Hope these photos can show how the plant has been ever since putting it into the soil. (I transplanted in direct into soil 4 days ago) so I think growth has started again and it’s looking healthy.

Looking alot better. Good job. Hopefully things go well and it doesn't get too hot close to that wall, but I think you'll be ok, it's easier to see the progress side by side...

Good luck
