It's probably pH issues; this will help you: https://www.growweedeasy.com/search-...=pH%20problems

Take a look at the first 4 articles.

Nute overload and watering looks like. Plant needs rest between feeds this one is over loved by over feeding. Roots are not liking being wet. Only give water when pot is light.

[Dewey]

I dont give nutrients every feeding only every other and half the amount I don't think its nutrients overload

[Dewey]

Every other feeding is nutrients only half the mix I dont think its nutrients overload

What is the ppm of your nutes going in? Just because you half something doesnt mean it is weak enough as cannabis plants usually need less nutes than what the manufacture says (unless it has been specificaly formulated for cannabis). I see nitrogen tox (dark and waxy leaves) and a possible ph or root issue (spots and discoloration). It would help to know what nutes and how much you are using.

[Dewey]

Foxfarm bloom and grow big is the nutrients I use. I guess my question is can they be saved if so what do you think i should do. 1.5 teaspoon per gallon it recommended 3 teaspoon per gallon.

[Tersky]

In that case, it may be a root/ ph issue. I'm not familiar with fox farms so i cant comment on that but what you are giving shouldnt be too much (from my limited research just now). Maybe the waxy dark green that i see is just a lighting or pic issue. It might be the soil, specifically the drainage. Also what is the ph of the water or nutes going into the pot?

[Dewey]

Not sure on the ph I give it dasani water from the store I'm guessing I need something to check the ph of soil. Do you think they can be saved at this point?

[Dewey]

Is it to late to save them

[homegrown]

hey Dewey, i wouldnt give up on them..their not dying. I thought the same as Tersky in pic 2,3and 4. They look dark green and shiny. Are these pic's all the same plant? or are we looking at several plants? And how big are the pots their in? maybe its just the pic but they look small.

[Dewey]

Thanks for the advice I'll try to bring them back. I think drainage may be the problem I'll let them dry out good before the next feeding/water

Hang in there Dewey! I´m also a first time grower and so far, so good, but am mentally preparing myself for arising issues. I´m extremely grateful for the outstanding advice & support on this site.

Getting ready to germinate some ak47 what size light should I use in my grow tent. It is 3x3x5.5

I don’t know if this helps and everyone out there please correct me if this is bad advice! But I’m on my second grow and trying to use rain water as much as I can rather than tap water. It’s not easy as it’s not raining much but I was told this can help with the Ph of the soil. I haven’t tested my Ph yet but so far the girls seem to like it!
