[HempRocket]

You have to provide more details about your grow...ph, what kind of water, what kind of soil, how far along she is, etc, etc, etc.

Ok your pH is 7. Is that the water you are giving them, or is it the medium, or runoff? I wouldn't recommend using any of the miracle grow products. They are full of slow releasing nutes that will just cause you headaches. You're probably better off just using plain water than using MG.

When did you move her to the MG soil?

 

[420buddha]

its the ph of the soil..well my buddy did a new cross white widow x thai and he used the mg bloom booster and his nugges came out so phat and dense and the bud never gave me head aches and he told me to use it every 2 weeks but im probly gona use it every 3 weeks instead and im on a low budget would of got some bloom hardener instead bud the economy is bad.... o yeah i switched her to the mg soil 4 days ago and she likes if from being in a 1 gallon bucket before..

 

[HempRocket]

If you just put her in MG soil, don't feed her any more nutes. There are lots of slow release nutes in MG soil. It's not recommended for growing MJ. The discoloration is probably the beginning of nute burn.

 

[420buddha]

hey hemprocket, i havent gave her any nutes since i transplant her and now she is getting a lil big ill post up pics in a couple of day so u can tell me wat u think and i have some bag seeds germanating the strains that were in there were blueberry kush, kush, og kush, haze,white widow and thai...ill post them up tomorrow late....

 

[420buddha]

[420buddha]

thankz heks i think i found the answer but lets see 7 more weeks to go....its a trip how fast they grow...

 

[HempRocket]

So what do you think is wrong with her?

 

[420buddha]

ok i thought it would of been nickel but my leaves are not yellow on top so that cant be the issue...what do u think hemp rocket its my first grow and i really dont kow to much..ive never seen this before ive seen my friends and his leaves were up reaching for the sun..by the way ur ladies are looking great...keep up the great work man...

 

[HempRocket]

What part of the plant does the problem affect? bottom, top, middle, whole plant?
It kind of looks like heat stress...maybe...
do you have ventilation in your grow area? what's the temp at the very top of your plant?

 

[Heks]

kinda looks like Nitrogen deficiency.
Is your soil mixed with anything to promote aeration? Does water take a long time to drain?

Hmm, as far as I know N def manifests itself by yellowing of lower leaves. Basically what the plant is doing is using up N stored in the leaves because it's not getting enough. IMO, N def wouldn't affect JUST the top of the plant. However, I agree with you that it could be due to not enough aeration.

 

[420buddha]

Hey heks and hemprocket,
What is aeration i never heard of that...?
Ok hemprocket the yellowing is only at the bottom leaves now it going up leaf by leaf...
and the leaves at the top are curling only i have a fan but i can only put it there for maybe an hour then i got to turn it off when i go to work.. money is tight..lol
but do u think if i have the fan on all day all night every day the leaves should go back up..?
And yes heks my water drains fine and doesnt take a long time..
What do u guys think i should do?

Hemprocket, if the lower leaves are yellowing and it does happen to be an N deficiency, would that slow the new grow and cause the top leaves to wilt a bit?

what I've read on aeration is that having other neutral mediums mixed with the soil will help the roots get more o2 and lessen water retention.

do you know the NPK ratio of the MG soil?

let's get this figured out so you can get her to harvest!

You are absolutely right. Might be N def and overwatering.
