HELP! Leaves growing spots, drooping then eventually drying out and dyong

[MrBuddither]

I believe the Miracle Gro was organic, the Scott's I'm not too sure of though, I'd say it likely wasn't but they started out in that and actually seemed fine. All of my plants are in both Miracle Gro and or the Scott's, or a mix of both so that hasn't really been the issue, I don't think anyways. Could be root rot or something else slowly creeping up, let's hope not 😂😭

I'll see if I can't look around and find something actually specified for growing stuff like this with the soil like the FFOF you mentioned, though. This one could use the love 😂 it's the biggest one I have. I'm fine with spending on the needed, just also trying to save what little money I do have lmao

Coffee grinds are not good for plants....unless completely composted. They are rumoured to keep snails away when sprinkled on top around the base of the plant.

Your temps and humidity 75 to 80F is pretty good and 60%RH at that stage.

Your choice of soil is likely a problem.

Watering every 3 days maybe too much depending on pot size temps humidity. Once a week for that size plant indoors is maybe fine in soil.

The soil + nutes I think is smashing it with N. They are dark green and curling like it.

Dang Gingerbeard I laughed out loud. HDPLLF? That's funny! Yeah? Just what is average? Do thy have mobile homes in Australia? I thought Oklahoma had the market for those things.

Will definitely flush them one more time then, because one of them has been showing that darkening and clawing consecutively throughout its life WAY more obviously than this one and when I looked it up, it kept giving me that along with watering issues, too much or too little so likely a combination of watering and an excess of Nitrogen, given that's what you mentioned it makes sense as well. If I can also manage some new, better soil ill also repot cuz looking at the old bags I used, they do have Nitrogen as a main keynote for their advertisement on it lmao

I usually don't put too much, just a pinch and it's been dried and sat for awhile, but not properly composted so I won't add anymore for sure lol thank you, the help is tremendous! The jokes from everyone are hilarious as well 😂 keeps me in a lighter mood about the plants when I've been stressing over them slowly going down.

Also put them in the sun today, found a good spot away from the winds so, should be good with sun. No more crappy window pane light for them 😂

Any home is a mobile home when you live in tornado alley, golfnrl

 

[MrBuddither]

I wish I could like replies golfnrl 😂😂 but yeah, the soils just cheap junk I bought from local stores for 10 bucks lol need to order proper stuff on Amazon. Would've done the same just digging some dirt up from my yard I imagine lol

The one that originally caught the spider mites and got decimated before I noticed it was the mites 😭 if anyone was curious, this is the little one that passed them off to the bigger one lmao


And here's the full 6 if anybody has any input on the others, found a good spot away from wind with a tarp up to block, so no more window pane light lmao Also noticing possible Nitrogen excess in most of them now that one of you guys mentioned it. Theres the two new ones about a month old along with 4, 4-5 month old big ones. All grown the same as the main one mentioned in this thread.

Thank you all for the help and the jokes 😂 the stress of watching money slowly die like this isn't fun, having people to lighten the mood is a huge help, much love!
