PLease Help With Sick plants ---Pics!!

[Zakariah]

Hi all

here are some pics of some weed i started growing and just in a few days they turning all yellow and dying

I planted them in some regular soil from my garden, maybe thats the problem cos i dont think its very good soil, I was also feeding them with some general fert that mixes into water but since the yellowing i've only sprayed them with water cos i dont wanna over do it an kill em. anyhow I read all the posts about diagnosing problems but I cant figure out whats going wrong,

How often are you giving nutes and at what strength? and how often are you watering? do you water say, till liquid starts spurting out of the drainage holes?

How long have they been in those pots? It could be the soil.. need to know the stats on it, was the soil fertless? organic? what we're the numbers? what are the numbers on the general fert? NPK?

are these being grown outdoors or indoors? Perhaps a transplant into bigger containers + some fox farm or pro mix soil, and some fox farm or pro mix nutes. I've also heard earth juice is great. -- i say transplant, and pickup good soil and nutes. This will probably fix your problem.. It would be worth it, you got some nice looking cannabis there, allot of hidden potential.. but wait for some of the other members to reply on here, they might know more of whats wrong then me.

Hey there,
Welcome to the Adventure. Please do take a few moments, and peruse the site rules, there are only a few and simple to go along with, again welcome friend.
I hope this helps, I borrowed it from Nivana. Maybe you can find something useful in this. http://www.marijuana-seeds.net/Thanks-ThankYou.htm

Thanks for the input guys,
i was watering them once a day with the sprayer and every 2 days watering the soil, i think i over did things a bit so ive decided to just leave them for a few days and see what happens, otherwise its prob nitro lockout or something from the crappy soil, it might have become to acidic.
Im gonna transplant them into decent soil mix when the old soil dries and cakes up a bit---is that a good idea??

Yeah put them in some new soil and feed them if you can, I would say Nitrogen too they need it at least thats how it looks to me. Also do you know the pH of your runoff?

I was giving em some fish emultion mixed in water, about 1 tsp per 2L, once every 2 days watering the soil and spraying them once a day.

How long have they been in those pots? It could be the soil.. need to know the stats on it, was the soil fertless? organic? what we're the numbers? what are the numbers on the general fert? NPK?

They've been in the pots about 3 weeks now, is that too long???
The soil was just some crappy soil from the garden, fertless i think, but im getting rid of it anyway...
The fert has no NPK ratios listed on it but it says its organic and wont burn the plants.
it lists (N. 53g/Kg) - (P. 7g/Kg) - (K. 17g /Kg) - (Ca. 0.5g/Kg) (Mg. 1.5g/Kg)

are these being grown outdoors or indoors? Perhaps a transplant into bigger containers + some fox farm or pro mix soil, and some fox farm or pro mix nutes.

Outdoors, yea im gonna transplant them tomorrow
They from various seeds I've collected over the years, and i got a whole bunch of em so if thees ones die its not a problem plus its only my first attempt at this. but im hoping they pull though this..

Thanks again

I have no Idea what the pH is so im gonna buy one of those Garden pH testing Kits and see what happens but i dont wanna water them again cos im gonna transplant them. maybe ill sacrifice one just to see what the pH is. :hubba:

Hey Zak..buy youself a moister reader too..if you dont have one...seems to me that you mayB over watering..what kind of nutes are you useing? they look like they could use a higher N in the mix...just my .02 Good luck

also soil may not be draining good...when you water does the water drain fast or does it take a bit to drain? perilte may help your mix.

Looks to me like that soil is to airy and the water is going through it so fast its not getting enough moisture from the soil to grow and the sprayer is not enough. Place your pots over on a bowl of water for 20 min untill it soakes up the water and see if it helps and i would go ahead and move them into better potting soil. That has too much fiber too it. it wont hurt to leave that with the plants but move them too like 3 gallon pots with potting soil. Slim
