Learning

started to learn the benefits of marijuana through a friend. am interested enough to learn on my own. he moved and left me with plants, they are in the flowering stage. i'm having to learn quickly now.

any advice is appreciated!

personal stuff...born and raised in san diego. lived in boston and nashville for short periods of time.
 
ah, well im from boston, live in nashville area, and have spent time in SD :p

which is a wierd coincedence....

so what type of problems you haveing?
 
I think a couple of the lights were too close to one of the plants, the leaves near the lights are crispy and the buds nice little hairs are curled and brown.

The temp last week was getting up to 90, as low as 70.

My once happy plant has yellow droopy leaves. (the same on that was burnt)

I feel bad neglecting them, but my friend who left them got mad when I asked another friend to help. Since he's on the other coast and not talking to me, I'm taking charge and doing what I want. Half tempted to get rid of the and say f it all.
 
nah, dont do that, these plants are hardy and easy to recover from mistakes.
back the lights off 6"-12", and give the plants a decent watering.

pics go a long way as far as advice, often there is something entirely different going on than what you would think
 
In 2 1/2 gallons of water.
Add 15cc peroxide
Add 2 cc SuperThrive
Add 25cc Viatimin B1
Add 3 cc ProTekt
Add 30-10-10 fertilizer
Add 5-50-17 fertilizer
i did some digging....
that is what is killing your plants, in combination with the high heat.
cannabis can withstand high temps with ease if it has the right moisture levels and fert levels.
your over feeding, bigtime, for soil.... the high fert levels are wicking moisture right out of the plant (ie burning) you need to get those salts out of the soil!
flush the plants, use 3 times the amount of water that the container the plant is in, if your using a 1 gallon pot per plant, than each plant will need 3 gal of water to be flushed.
i know its a pain in the ass.... but you dont have many options left.
let them dry out for a few days and see if you have any green growth returning....
imho, i would also get rid of the vit b... no telling what that is doing to your soil's ph levels as well.
i think your getting too complicated with the ferts, honestly. its a very easy mistake for a novice grower to make (ive done it myself, more than once, lol)

you have to treat ferts like its herion for your plants. too much will kill them with a quickness, to little will have no effect, and cutting them off all of a sudden will make your plants go into withdrawel, so to speak, lol... not really withdrawel but the sudden lack of nutes in the medium makes em start consuming there fan leaves, similar to the way a mammal will burn fat when it cant eat.


ps- the NPK levels of the nutes your using are off the chart for N and P.... hint hint... too much. cut down the concentration when you start feeding again, like 1/2 strength. i would say 1/4 but your already flowering, the ladies need all the food they can get, but like i said, its easier to overfeed them and kill them than it is too feed them just right.

and never feed a plant in soil everytime you water.... feed them 1 out of 3 times for starters, even 1 out of 4
