hey all,

first time closet grower here. i have four babys planted in their 3rd week. I have been using FF Big Bloom and just mixed in FF Grow Big (all according to schedule). They are growing in soil (cheap stuff) and the widow is about a week older than the others (don't know the strain, a friend gave me the seeds).

1. The widow was showing problems since early on. The stem was extremely thin and looked to be dying as the plant wouldn't stand up. Don't know if this is from drowning or burning. The plant seemed to be doing better once I started feeding FF Big Bloom (2.5 weeks ago). And I also treated all my plants with Greencure fungicide as it appears I was having a white powdery mildew. Since the treatment (3 days ago) the widow looks bad again and the leaves are drooping and dying on the tips. Not sure what my problem is with the plant and saving this one is my top priority. The other three plants are doing great. What do I do?


2. I have the FF liquid trio pack and want to purchase one of the soluble nutes from FF but can only afford one. Should it be Open Sesame or Beastie Bloomz?

well to strengthen the plant put a fan blowing on it. Drooping leaves could be a pH problem but its tough to tell without pics and more info. How far is the plant from the light? what light? how big of a pot is it in?

If it started to look bad since you put fungicide on it i would definitely flush the soil immediately though

i have two 20 watt flourescent grow lights hanging down 2 inches above the containers i have plants in. The containers are styrofoam coolers (about 10x14 inches) with added drainage holes. There are two plants in each container and a light directly above each with mirrors on 3 walls of the closet. I'm planning on picking up an 150 watt hps tomorrow for the closet

hard to tell whats wrong without pics. my guess would be the fungicide probably caused a pH problem. Flush the plant and dont give it any nuts for a while just water. Do you have anything to check the pH level? Also what about humidity and temp in the room?

ouch that does not look good. Flush it and put a fan on it. Also prop it up completely straight and pile some soil around the base for extra support. God Speed.
