Same problem right now bro did you get help.?

 

[millertm]

Flowering that plant will kill it. It needs more light and lower temps. It looks hot and over watered. Let the leafs stop falling off and build up a bit more leaf mass before flipping.

Cheers

 

[Mrcanberra123]

Lower temps? It's pretty cold where I am and yes I've stopped over watering it..

 

[Mrcanberra123]

So I get another light? Then what do I do grow the plant for a couple of months b4 flowering?

 

[millertm]

Tent should stay 75 to 82 when lights on. If it gets to 84, 85 you plant will start to droop like you are seeing. Overwatered will also cause droop. Yellow leafs could be over fed, under fed, PH issue's, ect.

Your plant should look full before flowering. Leaf mass needs to be top priority when flipping. Leafs are solar panels that grow buds, more leaf mass, more weight. Once you loose leafs in flower, they will not regrow and your final weight will take a hit. Thats why mites in late flower are so catastrophic.

Nutes are like vitamins, if your soil is amended your ok, if not a grow nute is needed. Age old fish and seaweed is good and cheap. If your near a grow store ask what is good in your area. Time is needed to let your plant grow healthy. Keep watering down, keep tent temps in control, watch PH (soil 6.5/hydro 5.5) and she should come around.

All great advice there brother. A plant can go into Flower at any point during its mature life (even slightly immature, depending on individual conditions ). As miller said, no way you'll get a good haul unless the plant is full and healthy. Tell us about your plant. What is it, what's it in, anything you've given it, lighting etc. I say this every Saturday and Sunday morning when I'm up earlier than most and perusing the threads.......so why no grow journal? It's imperative to a good grow, especially a 1st successful one. Without my journal, I never would have gotten results like this on my first grow....

....start a journal, fill in everything you can and ask questions. Well jump in to help.

That poor plant is stressed out to the max. what type of light do you have on it and how many watts? Is it in the open and not in a tent? What are the low and high temps in that room? You should read the how to ask for grow support at the top of this section copy and paste that.

 

[Mrcanberra123]

1 light on it.. It's in the open inside a room.. Probably high 20 and low 6 and I don't get what you mean?

 

[Why Doe]

Theres your problem that's not even a grow light. I'm surprised it even grew as big as it did. Search amazon for "full spectrum LED grow light, more watts the better. Also you need your temps to stay between 18-30. Your plant is feeezing.

 

[Mrcanberra123]

I was told to get this light? It's from burnings a cfl

 

[Why Doe]

That light is okay for seedlings but once a plant grows you need WAY more light. Just think about it, your trying to replicate the power of the sun.

 

[Mrcanberra123]

Yeah I realise that will getting more lights put my electricity up alot?

 

[Why Doe]

Of course your bill will go up, but it won't be a lot if you go LED. This is the price you have to pay for growing. I recommend at least 400w if you go LED.
