What am I doing wrong?

1st pic, in the 2nd pic it's the plant to theright, and 3rd pic all IRON DEF.it's at all sights...Nitrogen starts bottom up

That's weird because the nutrients I'm using has iron in it. Miracle grow btw

That's my opinion...I could be wrong I guess...but take a look at this picture ..and save it it's always good to look at !

Read #1 on Iron Deficiency andit says intervenal chlorosis (yellow) on new tips and SHOOTS (your tops) on the inside of the leaf first....that basically is exactly what your plant looks like imo

I bet ur right man. I use a small mixture of miracle grow and organic tomatoe fertilizer. The miracle grow has a small amount of iron in it. So I guess they need more iron. The ones that are flowering look fine though that's why I'm confused.

When someone says you need more N they are referring to Nitrogen not Nutrients.
Iron is needed in tiny amounts and I don't think you need any more. Sulpher will acidify your soil and you don't need any of that either. Do you monitor your ph?
Get yourself a few 5gal pots bc you're growing sativas that typically grow for 10+ weeks and for the plants to be in those little pots is only going to get you tiny ass buds. When you move them into bigger pots you will see the plants improve. Keep feeding with MG and the tomato fertilizer about once a week.
A tbsp. Epsom salts will help them grow and you can add the same amount of lime.
Think about some pruning on your next run, maybe Low Stress Training by bending and tying stems down.
I think your plants look pretty good and they'll look even better when you transplant them. Nice job.

THANK YOU !!!!!!WHAT HE SAID

You probably have a Sulphur defiency that affects especially new growth. Can You find Epsom Salts ?
Feed them at least 300 ppm with it and wait for 2-3 days before a new application.

Yup and he's needing to feed pretty bad too! S def. = nice call!

Don't use that epsom you have! Try a Kelp extract like Age Old or MaxiCrop and FEED it too.

Up pot is a grand idea

The 2 that you think are not flowering ,,, ARE. Their Sativa's, pure one's, they take a L-O-N-G time to complete flowering!

Doc

So that's not iron? I really thought it was

Sulfur and the rest of the micro's the plants have used up in the mix already at their stage of growth. Fe (Iron) and S (Sulfur) along with Boron and Zinc.

I know you guys are probably more right then I am, as for I'm really just starting to get this tox/def down...but can someone answer me how it isn't iron def? I know those charts can be shitty but #1 for iron def hits the hammer on the nail..

Yea it is a sativa it's a Thailand strain called thai stick. And I'm growing them in small pots to keep them small and discreet. But I'll take ur advice and plant them in a bigger pot.

I know it's kinda late but if you're worried about stealth, try to LST & Supercropping on your next grow your plants will stay short and bushy and increase yields, look into "how to" videos.

Sativas are a tall growing plant that need large pots to grow in, 5g+ ( I'm planning to grow a sativa outdoors next spring in a 10g fabric pot (root pouch).

I'm new to growing 1st grow and one indisputable truth is doing your homework, anxious, oh hell yes...but nothing beats researching.

Thanks everyone for the advice and not insulting me for doing a bad job lol.

I repotted them and covered the roots. Also letting them dry out so the roots get oxygen for a couple days.

I will follow ur advice thanks.

The roots are brown

The plant look very good for a new grower to be honest,looking at the leaf blades ,un-less there 100% of very high in sativa genetics then the reason that the leave blades are really thin like that is heat ,too hot.
The other problem well i go has far has to say the main problem is the size of the pots ,plants of that size should be in large tubs,and by putting them into larger tubs i think you will prob find that most of the problems will be rectified.
The yellowing in the plant tops is nothing other than new growth .

But other than that get them on a decent amount of feed and i think that you will do fairly well from them,height may be a issue though so,make sure that you take this into account,when you do decide to flip the others,a friend had simular looking plants other month,and his room was no where near big enuf for them i got round this problem by re potting them,by laying them on there sides,and putting a table over them.[scrog table]

There doing fine now so may be worth thinking about,i would not do anything nutrient wise other than getting the 2 that are on there 2nd week of flower on a 2nd week pk spike like big bud,But most of the problems lay with the size of the pots.

Hope this helps tyke
