Promix bx has no FOOD in it whatsoever. And if your gona continue to use it i have a few suggestions for you. When you say you fed them, how much did you feed them.

1 week is too early to start nutes....purple stems are typical and should not be of concern....avoid overwatering...

One week is not to early to lightly feed them, Would you not feed a 1 week old baby? I'm not saying give them full strength but promix has no nutrients in it so what's the young'in gonna eat. I could post some pics of my mk ultra and lsd babies that just popped up like 4-5 days ago and I have already fed them and they are doing just fine

Beg to differ - it has ample nutrients in it for seedlings.

"Pro mix is a premium quality soil mix that is ready for starting seedlings or potting up plants with out adding any other medium. This all-purpose peat-based growing mix is formulated for its high water holding properties, yet it is a light soil mix able to hold nutrients and allow the drainage and aeration for optimum plant growth. Contains Canadian sphagnum peat moss, perlite, vermiculite, macro nutrients and micro-nutrients, limestone (for ph adjustment) and wetting agents making is suitable for indoor or outdoor potting."

Marijuana plants are nothing close to being a "baby"....they're weeds with far more resilience IF we just let'em alone long enough....requires a batch of PATIENCE grown alongside...

1 suggestion tho, when you get your promix you wanna add dolomite lime to it to buffer the soils ph. I'm guessing someone is gonna chime in and say it already has it in it which it does just not enough. once the peat starts to break down it make the soil more acidic which drops the ph which will cause nute lockout.. usually in flowering and usually magnesium. And marijuana is NOT A WEED. IT's actually a very complex plant.. get your facts straight please

Cannabis (Cán-na-bis; English pronunciation: /ˈkænəbɪs/) is a genus of flowering plants that includes three putative species, Cannabis sativa,[1] Cannabis indica,[1] and Cannabis ruderalis. These three taxa are indigenous to Central Asia, and South Asia. [2] Cannabis has long been used for fibre (hemp), for seed and seed oils, for medicinal purposes, and as a recreational drug. Industrial hemp products are made from Cannabis plants selected to produce an abundance of fiber. To satisfy the UN Narcotics Convention, some hemp strains have been developed which contain minimal levels of THC (Δ9- tetrahydrocannabinol), one of the psychoactive molecules that produces the "high" associated with marijuana. The psychoactive product consists of dried flowers of plants selectively bred to produce high levels of THC and other psychoactive chemicals. Various extracts including hashish and hash oil are also produced from the plant.[3]

Cannabis is an annual, dioecious, flowering herb. The leaves are palmately compound or digitate, with serrate leaflets.[9] The first pair of leaves usually have a single leaflet, the number gradually increasing up to a maximum of about thirteen leaflets per leaf (usually seven or nine), depending on variety and growing conditions. At the top of a flowering plant, this number again diminishes to a single leaflet per leaf. The lower leaf pairs usually occur in an opposite leaf arrangement and the upper leaf pairs in an alternate arrangement on the main stem of a mature plant.
Cannabis normally has imperfect flowers, with staminate "male" and pistillate "female" flowers occurring on separate plants.[10] It is not unusual, however, for individual plants to bear both male and female flowers.[11] Although monoecious plants are often referred to as "hermaphrodites," true hermaphrodites (which are less common) bear staminate and pistillate structures on individual flowers, whereas monoecious plants bear male and female flowers at different locations on the same plant. Male flowers are normally borne on loose panicles, and female flowers are borne on racemes.[12] "At a very early period the Chinese recognized the Cannabis plant as dioecious,"[13] and the (ca. 3rd century BCE) Erya dictionary defined xi 枲 "male cannabis" and fu 莩 (or ju 苴) "female cannabis".[14]

Cannabis is growing like weeds at the foot of Dhaulagiri.


All known strains of Cannabis are wind-pollinated[15] and produce "seeds" that are technically achenes.[16] Most strains of Cannabis are short day plants,[15] with the possible exception of C. sativa subsp. sativa var. spontanea (= C. ruderalis), which is commonly described as "auto-flowering" and may be day-neutral.
Cannabis, like many organisms, is diploid, having a chromosome complement of 2n=20, although polyploid individuals have been artificially produced.[17] The plant is believed to have originated in the mountainous regions northwest of the Himalayas. It is also known as hemp, although this term is often used to refer only to varieties of Cannabis cultivated for non-drug use. Cannabis plants produce a group of chemicals called cannabinoids, which produce mental and physical effects when consumed.
Cannabinoids, terpenoids, and other compounds are secreted by glandular trichomes that occur most abundantly on the floral calyxes and bracts of female plants.[18] As a drug it usually comes in the form of dried flower buds (marijuana), resin (hashish), or various extracts collectively known as hashish oil.[3] In the early 20th century, it became illegal in most of the world to cultivate or possess Cannabis for sale or personal use.


LETS SEE YOU PULL A WEED OUTTA THE GROUND SMOKE IT AND GET HIGH???

From what I can see it looks like when you were feeding it got on your leaves.

I generally do not feed till the plant gets to 3 to 4 inches tall, I let the nutrients in the soil feed till then.

Young plant leaves can be succeptable to burn. If nutrients get on leaf they cause the stomata to take in to much.

Generally use a very light feed in early growth. When they get older I like to let the leaf get light grade ferts too.

Thanks for the replies all, for what its worth i put approx 1 tablespoon emulsion in 1 litre water, that being said i only fed them once and the other plants are looking great even after receiving the same amount. However I think plantvision hit the nail on the head with this problem - as i recall i did splash a bit of nutrient water on the leaves. thanks for the help

Now im thinking that might have been a little too much food.. POSSIBLY.. what are the feeding instructions? With something organic like that it shouldn't burn your leaves by just getting on them. Prolly should go 1/4 strength per gallon not liter.

feeding instructions are 5ml (1 tablespoon) for 1 liter (1/4 gallon) of water. the other plants are fine however since i started this post the plant is getting worse, any suggestions?
