Hi all
So I am a newb indoor grower, done some outdoor before with success but now im trying some indoor stuff. So Ive got 6 girls, they are 2 week old (from seed). They were pretty good until 2 days ago when the leave started to curl. Im not sure what is the problem here. I realized my soil is too thick so I ordered some perlite but that seems to be the only problem I can think of. Any ideas?

I would look at raising your humidity. Looks to be on the low side. Aim for at least 60% while in Veg.

Rain damage, and avoid mold.

[oldjarhead100]

there has been a ton of complaints about seeds that produce twisted leafs you definitely need some perlite

Help....This is my first year growing and have had a great season but I have noticed dense brown patches on colas. Im thinking bud rot??? Weird thing is, its been fairly dry lately, just a little foggy in early morning Need some expert advice, please!!

[Jayv]

Mold. Might be very damp over night as temperatures drop sharply this time a year. So the buds are having dew sit on for pro long time. I have had the same happen up here in New England. I’m getting ready to bring them in after this weekend to finish them off. We haven’t had rain in a few weeks but everything is soaked in the AM from condensation. Cut the rot out if you can. So you can save as much as you can. High humidity also can cause it. Take a good look see if you have any brow worm looking insects. They eat the buds and usually cause mold from exposures of of overall conditions from insect damage

Help! Possible nitrogen tox and heat stress?
I was using floraseries at half strength with a 400 mh in a 2x5x5 humidity has been between 40-50% and temps no more than 81. I was away for a bit and had someone watching over them. This is them before and after. 5gal dwc with airstones

I would say its n deficiency in first pic,the leaves look like they do at the end of a grow as the plants use there remaining N ,In the second picture if I had a leaf that looked like that one in the center ,I would cut it dry it and frame it lol that is one cool looking leaf

[RagWeedDWC]

I use the flora series at one third strength, they seem to be responding well. I also use calmag and Hydroguard. I would flush them, (replant into individual nets) and go back with a weaker solution.

You may want to separate the two plants in one pot, by the time they go to flower, that 5 gallon bucket will have no room to accommodate the root ball and the competition for space will likely cause problems

2 of the leaves are bent at an angle, I've noticed some clawing especially on the larger plant

2 of the leaves are bent at an angle, minimal clawing, leaves hanging downward I've noticed some clawing(like a taco)especially on the larger plant and wilting.

Im growing 9 plants outdoors in pots, some sativa some indica. I live in BC Canada, weve had a few cold nights and theyve been fine but now its supposed to go to about -3°C and I'm wondering if they do freeze will it ruin the buds if I cut them down immediately the next day if they dont look good.
its supposed to be warmer the next few days after as well.

[oldjarhead100]

can you cover them with something the hard frost will kill them ,and trimming up frosted plant is a pain

[RagWeedDWC]

cover with a sheet, it will be enough to keep the frost off.

I have a Northern Lights Auto that is about 60 days old and is showing signs of a deficiency. A handfull of the leaves have brown spots on them and the leaves seem to be yellow in between the veins. The leaves all seem to be a little lighter green than they should be as well. The plant is also growing very slowly. I am not sure if this is calmag or manganese deficiency or possibly something else. It seems to be getting worse.
I am growing in coco/perlite, watering every day with GH flora series nutes, and I do supplement with GH calmag and Armor Si. I have extremely hard water (around 360 ppm) so I cut it with distilled or R/O water to bring it down to around 150-200 ppm. She has been getting around 1.5ml of cal mag (I assumed my hard water would be supplementing calmag some) and for the last couple waterings Ive bumped it up to 3ml/g, but it still seems to be spreading. I use pH drops to test the inflow and have been watering with yellow-yellow green so I should be in the correct pH range. I do feed daily to run off. The run off pH is always orange.
I just started testing PPM/EC last week and the run off was always lower than the inflow. I slowly increased my nutes and now for the past few waterings the EC difference has been +45 & +220, the PPM has been +21 & +103 (around 600PPM). I believe this is in a good range and am trying to stabilize them a little more. Im not familiar with what range of PPM difference you want for your plant, but I know EC is within +300 so thats what I've been following.
I'm afraid to up the calmag and overload the PPMs for my plant. I have epsom salt I have thought about adding as well, but I think the main issue is a calcium deficiency. Could I be getting a calcium lock out from my hard water? I have recently started feeding with every watering (for about a week and a half now) so its been a minute since she's had plain water. Could the calcium be locked out from salt buildup (even though my outflow readings seem fine)? Not really sure what to do from here as this is my first grow so any advice would be much appreciated.

[Jayv]

Flush them a few times. Add cal after you flush really good. Epson salt works to. Add it to your water to de-solve before watering 1Table spoon for each gallon. Looks like over feeding and the pot might be to small and you have rot lock. I would also trim the fan leaves so you get more nutrients to you buds

[Lobabe]

I'm having a dire issue. When I first started growing.. I took clones from mother and put directly into soil with root gel. Success rate about 40 to 50%.

Then I got a clone machine. Success rate 90%.

My success rate is down to 10 or 20%. I'm worried I'm not gonna have any mothers left.


I keep getting withered.. brown spots on leaves. Then they just die. Usually all within 7 days after transplanting from clone machine to 2in cups with soil/perlite.
I use RO water.. always. I've tried using a little..tiny amount of miracle grow.. but usually just ph 6.5 water.

I'm going to post several pics. It looks really dirty.. noted. But it was after transplants too.

I'm wondering if I'm not putting them far enough away from the fluorescent t4 bulbs?
Please help anyone!

[oldjarhead100]

they are very leggy so I dont think your light is to close ,you have holes in those cups right , also how often do you water,my friend got a clone machine and he had to rework the feeding tubes, it looks like root issues to me

[Farmall]

Lobabe The lanky long growth would seem to indicate that your plants are stretching to find light and the dead spots in the leaf tell me that you have a nutrient uptake problem usually caused by pH, but possibly root development...not a guarantee but that is my 2 cents

[Lobabe]

Well, they're only 3 days out of the clone machine.
I cut long clones from the mother like that.
Could that be the problem, you think?

[Farmall]

Lobabe I’m not really sure. The only clones I ever did were stupid trimmings of a lollipopped plant. Stuck them into a wonton soup container and under a light for about 3 weeks. They grew but I did not have space and only wanted to see if they would grow. Let them sit in the dark for another month before discarding them and 3 of them were still growing but displayed an intense iron deficiency with bright yellow inner leaf color turning greener towards the tips. Pretty though

So, were these cuttings from the bottom of the plant or close to the top? They say there’s a hormone difference but on your photo, it seems like the plant is not able to distribute water or nutrients to the leaves so they’re drying up. I believe it could take longer then just 3 days for that to happen so IF that is the case, it’s probably something that may have started a few days earlier before that. Logic may have us thinking that.... but again, it’s only speculation on my part. I wish I had a more definitive answer, and it may have been a combination of a few things culminating in this result

[Farmall]

Just re thinking....if you need to analyze this further should the plant fail to survive, wash the soil off of the roots and then look at cross section of the stem to see if it looks viable as a transfer pathway to the leaves meaning not flattened areas, smooth looking run of the stem each inch with no withering of the inner core, the roots should be vanilla colored near white
