Nutrient Deficiency?

Greetings. This is a Northern Lights Pure Indica from Nirvana. It's the only one left (5 outta 6 were male) this one hasn't shown sex yet. Duh.

It's sitting in a bubbler (DWC) w/ GH 3 part, mixed according to the label's instructions for Vegging plants. There's also some epsom salts (approx. 1 tblspn) to the 2.5 gallon bucket.

These photos were taken after approximately 48 hours in pure PH adjusted RO water. Still no improvement. I've since planted it into some Fox Farm Soil & Perlite, and moved it under natural light. I seriously doubt it's gonna make it.

Anyone able to tell me what it is? Thanks in advance. Peace...

The dosage that is on the label is typically way to much for younger plants. Back off to about 1/4 strength and go up from there.

Seems like alot of salt in 2.5 gallons to me.

I have the same curling/clawing (but no interveinal chlorosis like yours)

They are in soil, and clawed/cupped/curled right after I gave them a solution of urine (diluted 1pt urine to 30pt h20)

Seems like the piss was too salty and threw everything off balance. Since then I've given plain water and switched to Neptune's. Things seem to get better

No clue about anything hydro but give your plant a rest now that it's in soil, see how it does, and make your decision on whether to feed it with ferts next watering or just give it plain water to flush them out (you should have a better feeling of when they were last fed than I).

That plant definitly has a chance of surviving, it really isn't that bad off, so have hope! :woohoo:

After looking at the pics in this thread a little closer it looks as though that plant got overfertilized and even a little bit burnt.

Doesnt look like a deficiency of N P or K

I'd say give it a break, maybe flush it, then let it dry out and see how it recovers. Your plant looks overfed, slightly burnt, and are locking out Mg because of the imbalance that it is in.

Once it recovers give it a smaller dose of ferts and correct me if I'm wrong but isn't the right amount of epsom salts per gallon 1 tsp/gallon? or is it a tablespoon? im pretty sure it's teaspoon

"Seems like alot of salt in 2.5 gallons to me."

I go with 1 teaspoon per gallon, but that plant seems to have a bizarre growth pattern, right? We'd need more info on the nutrient regimine to make much of a guess, I think, but definately could be overnute.
