hummm... could someone tell me what this is?

[zero.kewl]

hey whats up!! first off let me say that this site rocks. im a first time sog grower and this site has been major helpiful. the sick guide for plants rocks!!

first off my set up is a book shelf. i have 7 fluros. 3 6500k 40 watt 48inch ge ecolux daylight bulbs(blue spec) 1 plant ecolux 48 in 40 watt bulb with a red spec. 2 3050 40 ge residental bulbs and 1 48 inch black light

i use a cap full h202 and 2 tsp floranova grow per gallon of water.

watering is about once every2 to 3 days at about half the size of what evers holding the plant is how much water ill give.

the grow rooms temp is ify but most of the time i like to keep her about 75-80 last night my rooms ac broke and got to 90!!! so ill fix tha asap.

the leafs are wilting but also... side wilting? im not sure how to explain it but its like a dbl wilt. shes wilting one way and then the leafs themselfs are almost making an umbreallalike an upside down boat. sum of the ends of the leafs are dryed and curled. ive noticed spots on the leafs in random places that look like they might be dieing. (brown)

im thinking mabe overwatering and heat stress?

funny thing is tho. i have 2 of these plants. i think there more indica. there the only ones doing it. the sativa indica mixs are fine. infact all but this strain is ok. (about 30)

my ph is between 5.5 AND 6

Looks like your using a few different kinds of medium. Are you compensating for that? Do they still sell that rockwool that drains best when oriented in a certain way?

 

[imnotcrazy]

First two look like overwatering. They are in RW correct? Let the medium become almost completly dry, right before the dry medium affects the plants you should water. They'll root better this way also. Let the plants show visible signs of needing water for the next couple of waterings and record the times between waterings. Then you'll have a good idea of when you should give them a drink.

thanks for the reply u guys! i thought over watering to but if u look close... (bad pics) the tips of the leafs are dryed up and curling and there are little brown dead patches its not a wilt more like an umbrealla on the leafs. does overwatering do this as well?

 

[teddybud]

yea overwatering will cause the leafs to look like they are wilting.. at least on mine.

 

[imnotcrazy]

Overwatering will generally make the plant look "unhappy". Wilts are common. Just try what I said before and it will give you a better idea of when to water. No one can give you a schedule as all of our enviroments and grows are different. I may have 1 gallon pots and you may have 5 gallon pots. We could use the same feedings and nutes but at different strengths. See where I'm coming from? Let the plants tell you what they need when they need it and we can help you along. As for the burning/crispy leaves, I couldn't see in the pic are you feeding with every watering?

and 2 of my other babys re starting to get it... plzzzz help

 

[R00KIE]

Judging by the way the leaves are curling from the sides to under the leaf i would say your ph is off...
The drooping is overwatering, maybe rootbound in a small pot, but the side curling on the leaves are definently ph....
Had it just happen to me... Once i fixed my ph growth returned to normal...

 

[MynameStitch]

What Nutrient's are you using? *Knowing the brand is very helpful*
What is the TDS/EC/PPM of your nutrients used?
What is the pH of the "RUN-OFF"?
What method of pH test was administered?
When was your last water?
When was your last feeding?
What size bulb are you using?
What is the distance to the canopy?
What is your RH Factor? (Relative Humidity)
What is the canopy temperature?
What is the Day/Night Temp? (Include fluctuation range)
What is the current Air Flow? (cfm etc.)
Is the fan blowing directly at plants?
Is the grow substrate constantly wet or moist?
Is your water HARD or SOFT?
Has plant been recently pruned, cloned or pinched?
Have any pest chemicals been used? If so what and when?

What Nutrient's are you using? *Knowing the brand is very helpful* flora nova grow and bloom
What is the TDS/EC/PPM of your nutrients used?not sure
What is the pH of the "RUN-OFF"? the water was over 7 but the floranova has ph adjusters. so after testing its not about 5.5 to6
What method of pH test was administered? ph indicator solution
When was your last water? 2 days ago
When was your last feeding? everyday i mix the flora nova with the water about 1 to 2 tsp per gallon. i also use about 2 cap fulls of h202 ( to keep from overwatering)

im pretty sure with the mg potting mix and the fact one of the gallons had 2 tsps of floranova. it had sumthing to do with overwatering and nute burn mabe also heatstress. im not sure. is there anything i can do to fix her leafs. i lowered the nutes and the new leafs seem to be fine now.

any input guys??

thanks

my oldest is 6 and 1/2 weeks and has so many krypton nugs to her. 2 to 3 more weeks and she will be done. yay

 

[Erin Kerrik]

You can't keep a plant in 3 inch wide containers for 8 weeks. They should be in three gallon containers by 8-10 weeks.

 

[zero.kewl]

ive done it. why is it not possible?

 

[Verite]

Anything is possible, its not good for a plant to get rootbound before you transplant it.
