Need help!

[djloud3r]

so if you need catching up on the problem, (which i believe to be light burn/heat stress?) it's in my journal in my sig, just need some input on what's going on, i already moved the lights up last night, but it still seems to be progressing.

Using fox farm ocean forest, no nutes, distilled water. Sorry, i don't have a PH meter quite yet, but working on it asap!

Thank you in advance

I would flush the pot with room temperature distilled water, and then re-pot the plant into a larger pot with fresh soil.

You should also consider applying some kind of sea-kelp spray on the leaves, our sponsor has a wonderful product SNS 604A Vegetation Organic Growth Supplement | Sierra Natural Science

Any idea's if i'm right on the lightburn? will do! gonna head to the hydro store in a litte!

 

[djloud3r]

And thanks for the help! you're outdoor 2014 grow is awesome! been keeping up on it!

 

[Lester Freeman]

Yeah, light stress is certainly a possibility, depending on the strength of light, distance to plants, and age of the plants. Tender leaf tissues can be "cooked" by high energy light. Make sure the fans are blowing a nice gentle breeze through the plants, and their leaves are rustling in the air. CFL's by themselves work just great as little vegger lights, so using a metal halide (or other high powered light) at this stage may be a bit over kill... As you know I don't grow indoors so I'm not THE guy to tell you, but just some thoughts

For the love of maryjane please fill your pots to within a half inch from the top edge of the pot please.

look like they need to be watered to me

 

[djloud3r]

Will fix all things mentioned, thanks! already hit the hydro shop and got everything

PH meter should always be the first thing you reach for.

Always rule out PH problems first, then look elsewhere if the PH is ok.

Did you pick up a PH meter from the hydro shop?

 

[djloud3r]

I picked up a GH ph balance and test kit (the dropper kind). moved the stressed plant under the sunblaze, the two leaves were beyond gone so i snipped them. added more soil to all the pots and watered with phed water

 

[djloud3r]

she's looking alot better, will get pics up tomorrow

 

[djloud3r]

Wel, all said and done, at the end of the day she looks WAY better. Everything must have helped. Thanks!

 

[jamthe3]

lol, bet you just added medium and watered.

 

[djloud3r]

Defiantly didnt. Thanks for the negatively though. Someone doesnt smoke enough!

 

[jamthe3]

Yeah, whatever, I assure you i didn't mean it that way at all...was actually just trying to "crack light" and I'm sure the pearlite just magically cracked the surface w/o watering. I think you either need to roll another or lay off from smoking to much. Either way, the level of medium from the two pics is def different, so I guess I'll leave it as wish you well with your grow.

 

[djloud3r]

No harm no foul, long stressful day you might be right lol! Sorry to be brash, i do listen to advice of those smarter than me though!

 

[labexperiment]

Glad to hear all the problems are being solved.

 

[canadarolls]

Really like the look of her

To avoid the soil compacting issue next time you transplant, try soaking the soil with PH balanced water before you transplant.
