Problem girl since pretty much the beginning



So I am trying to figure out what exactly is going on here, She was Initially very healthy always smaller branches , small leaves I’ve let her dry out in between waterings …. More so some times than the others bc her soul is still wetish …… she is yellowing in the new growth but some leaves do turn green but still have “rust spots” let me know if she’s even worth saving , as I do have many more plants to tend too an can use the space otherwise if she isn’t save-able ?? Just wondering guys TYIA!! @happilyretired @PreyBird1 @Slym3r @TheMadFlascher @MrMonkey420 @Dog_Fart1 @anon83649042 @dequilo an anyone else who has an idea?!

Most are saveable but is it worth or needed is the questions :slight_smile:

I tend to hang on to everything and end up with way too many plants quickly

the way the leaves a bulging in the one photo looks over water somewhat

what is you VPD? PPFD? the other plants are fine

I have been chasing these things myself

all the best and good luck

Right I thought over water also the vpd is right about 1.0 I let her dry out now for about a week now I’m not sure :thinking: really it’s got me stumped

your temp. and RH are what? I know the stumped feeling all too well :frowning:

the move from HIDs to all LEDs has been a learning thing

but you only stop learning when you are dead

so grow on my friend and be well

How much cal mag are you using? That may sound like dumb question. Have you tried to adjust that amount? But some atrains dont like lots of food. And having a new strain can get tricky trying to find out what makes it happy. And you also have to think am I gonna clone it for another run. Do i care enough to? Otherwise just go with it or cut your losses. Maybe just transplant it to a little bit bigger pot and examine the root zone while doing that. Another question do you water to run off at all? How often do you just use water like a flush in between feeds.

The stuff I have is 1/4 teaspoon to a gallon of water/nutes

I have been using it at a 1/4 teaspoon for 2 gallon just starting every other watering with

with jack’s 20-20-20 at the same rate

just watching the plants to dial it in about 50 days they will be outside under G_d’s light

in the ground and then all things will be right

under HIDs I feed plants very little

that idea works for me

all the best and grow big

Gosh @HostileHippie420, I’m guessing you have treated these plants all the same…

There are just an awful lot of possible causes…genetics (weak phenotype), compromised root system (just not healthy or possible pathogen influence)

I am betting heavily on the compromised root system…if/when you pull it, please carefully remove that root ball and give us a picture (just for s***s and giggles !)

yes please :slight_smile:

I’m thinking roots have been weakened somewhere along the way, if you keep, maybe a few light waterings. With some cal,mag in the mix. If you haven’t already done so. Just my thoughts.

I Genuinely appreciate all the info so these girls legit everyone I have is in HP pro Mix with Gia green worm castings an dry amendments though my thought too originally was over watering but I backed off still had problems , phed in between 6 an 6.5 most times right around 6.4 most times …. rh is at 55% vpd is on …. I did also try to give her some organic tps cal-Mag to no avail but I will definitely let you all see it if an when I pull the plug thanks again guys

I’m thinking it might be your soil ph. If you have a soil ph probe available, check the ph of the soil. Another thing would be to feed it some humic acid. When I enlarged the picture it looked like a nutrient deficiency. Probably needs, Iron, magnesium, and zinc. Just my opinion.

Oops, arrived late to the party. (Blame our time difference @HostileHippie420 brotherman!)
You already have some good answers? Worth checking out her roots indeed and all the parameters there, pH on top.

Is this the same strain as the others? Not saying this is IT but I’ve had plants looking very similar and they simply didn’t enjoy all the light they were getting: light stress (not heat stress, 2 different animals, light stress = too high ppf, nothing to do with temps but a lot of peeps use the terms wrong) and it showed also by yellowing tips and yellowing new growth. My 2 cents. :v:

Growing organically like you are generally doesn’t cause much problems in the rootzone but it might be that as well…

Thats a dr suess strain. Totally normal in who ville.

Could be vmt with how the leafs :leaves: body of green is losing its colour and then bright green tips :thinking: could be the start of it.
