That is really good advice ganja, yes mid east the roots grow out of the area where the leaves were, more roots more leaves and a heailter plant.

Mid east: if it came out discolored then yes there was a lot of excess nutrients in the soil and since it started to come out clear you flushed properly so you should not worry about it getting burned.... BUT you gotta wait a bit now since you flushed out the soil you will need to feed her soon and when you do need to feed her you will need to feed her weekly; but that is a little bit down the road; do not worry about that right this min.. worry about getting her to recovery and then we will talk about feeding :)
 
ganja and stitch, thanks!

ganja and stitch, thanks!

guys!
i apriciate the time and mental effort you put in my thread. thanks!!

first:when time to transplant will come i will burry her. after all, what our life is if not one big experiment?
and i will not feed her for now, will way a couple of days till it starts to grow again. actualy even after 24 hours she shows small signs of grouth and no new necrosis spots...
we'll see.
so i am now waiting lets say 4 days till i need to thing about feeding?

You will need to wait longer than 4 days, what you want to wait untill she starts to gain new growths and when they fully recover which takes around a week or a little more; then you start to feed them.
 
ok... a week then

faster to trash that plant and start over. We really need an ugly plant contest.

Octodiem; that is sooo harsh man; I would love to see your plants when you first started out; not everyone has a green thumb and when it comes to first time growers depending on how bad there plants are; having them start all over sometimes is a total self esteem killer. So please be gentle with them; they were in the same boat as we all were; everyone has to start somewhere bro.

^^^ She's right, Octo. Besides I guarantee you in 4 weeks you will not recognize his plants (assuming MidEast takes care of them properly), they will be so green and bushy and vigorous. You'll see......anyway some bud from a crappy first plant is better than no bud at all. You cannot learn unless you try and do.

Mid East, they're fried. Always, always, always use seed starter mix if you are buying store soil. There cannot be any ferts in the soil (although my own cocomix does have some worm casting, kelp and BioBizz dry PreMix, but it's slow acting, gentle and organic, but I still have to feed no liquid fert for the first week or <sizzle>). Seedlings do not need food for the first week or so.

Save that soil for their first transplant, but be very careful with the liquid nutes you add, go easy until you see how the plants like it. You don't know what or how much and what kind of fert is in that soil. I would do a ph adjust plain watering first time after transplant, then wait a week and inspect the plant leaf tips for "tip burn" a couple millimeters is ideal to tell you you are feeding enough both with dose and frequency. If there is no tip burn anywhere, go ahead and feed 1/2 strength and observe again over the next weak. If things look good, or bottom leaves are yellowing from lack of Nitrogen, increase fert dose and observe again. If there is too much tip burn, downclawed leaves, droopy underwatered look even if watered, or a real leaf sizzle like you've already seen, you are giving too much nute or too frequently or both. Water with plain ph'd water again and go back to half strength, or feed less frequently, and observe. You need to find the right balance for your garden and all plants, even the same strain, are different and have different needs. Less is more, please believe that. They don't need much to give you a successful crop and there are better areas to tweak and perfect in your garden system other than the ferts. PH! PH! PH!, lighting and temps are a good start.

Ganja great advice. I always bury my plants when transplanting up to the first node with leaves. This keeps you plants short and squat and erases past errors nicely . :dance:

good luck MES, peace all!

i was actually being honest, I have laughed at my own screwed up grows. Laughed and learned....I just misted the girls with what I don"t know...Burned the things up. Now I learned to mark all bottles especially ones in the grow room. I have learned all from personal mistakes. BTW I believe sometimes it is simpler to start over. Sorry if I sounded harsh.

sometimes the ph of the soil will got up if given to much water.thats whyits good to keep track of the amonts,and size of pots used,with that type of soil.u cn make adjustments easier,and easier for people to help.if needed u can always adjust the amonts of water up and down,by a ounce at a time or,,, 1/4 cup,or cup,dependin on how much water,ur usin.,and wen lant starts using that amont quick,and plants is growin,ur there.dont mean to sound lik broken record,just tring o help.also mistakes in prefert. soils are usally more devasting,then in plain soil.kinda lik why gravty,domanate large scale happens in space,cuz electiic fields,magnetic,and other forces,cancel out,gravity wont due that,thats why we have holes in space,worping physics,einstein rosen bridge,4th demsion,u no longer exist,e=mc2 dam me stoned... :lurk: peace from the moooon/xxxxxxxx
