Whats wrong with her?

[WeedyScooby]

Hi guys, she is Royal Kush automatic, 1 week old and looks like that... She has a weak stem, without stick it falls. I water her once in two days. Same with my other Easy Bud auto, but she is ok. Please help me, thank you.

Needs a closer light and dryer ground. Let it dry out good then just water a 2 inch circle around the Stem

When you transplant put her in the ground deeper, all the way to those baby leaves!

Perfect answer from Jordan.

 

[WeedyScooby]

yep, I totally forgot about it, I will next time, thx

 

[WeedyScooby]

Thanks. How often? Once in 2 days, every day?

They way it looks now could probably dry for a week plus. I always drill lots of extra holes in my pots. Lots. All up the sides as well. I use a 20ml cyringe and go by feel. Les is more at this point but as it get bigger you'll want to watery wider and abit away from the stem to get the roots to stretch out farther. I have my plants in coffee cans at a month old and they get 100ml every 2 days now. Still mostly in a circle 4 inches around the Stem. Hope this helps.

Helped very much, thank you. So week without water, until leafs go up and stem get stronger? Just to clarify 🙂

Yea by the look of the pot and size /growing medium I'd finger a week forsure or till it gets really light and dry dry around the edges, the. Probably start with 20 or 40 MLS and increase abit weekly as it grows. I missed what kind of light you have it under. Humidity and temp will speed up or slow down drying as well.

What else is growing in your pots?

 

[WeedyScooby]

I have two LED lights, say 40 cm above plants, I use blue light, temp is around 24°C, I have my growbox next to a radiator. Idk how much humidity I have, I unfortunately have not a device for it.

 

[Jordann]

Plant matter from unbaked random soil.

 

[Jordann]

I'd try bringing the light down a couple CMs a day and watch how the plant, morealess the leaves react. Soon as the start to curl or look like they're burning raise it up a few cm and try and keep it that distance. I have some LEDs for growning seedlings and they stay 10 to 15 com from the lights. Then I have my general LEDs which would have to be 60 plus cm away from the seedlings. If you want to throw a picture or two of the led and the setup that would help me.

Jordann This is how it looks like, I lower the light intenstity so you can see something, normally I have it on full instensity blue light.

I just had to catch a case of stretch myself in a couple of seedlings I had temporarily put at floor level with two moms & a dozen clones. I moved the seedlings on top of a box so they could get close enough to the T5 to stop stretching. You should also have some kind of air movement from a fan in the room to help harden them up. Never point a fan directly at them though!

Yea id get the lights close er to the plant within 6 inch or less. Raise the pots right up or get the lights down in there. Everything UndergroundFarmer said down below.
