    Red Stems appearing and Light Green growth is it normal

    They look ok to me a little hungry, just bump up the N a bit and I believe they will get their green back. N def will start normally from the middle or bottom of the plant and work its way up.

    Seedling with only one leaf

    You should be just fine provided you use less water, that poor baby can't swim. For that size plant you are looking at very tender rootsystem, it doesn't need that much water. Number One cause of seedling death excess water in the soil. Welcome to RIU

    My Soil...

    I will use the soil forever basically, it all goes back into my compost pile and gets mixed back in. I am lucky I have about 3 years worth of soil now so everything gets a good rest between uses.....coffee grounds are great and keeps my worms going well in the compost. Enjoy

    IS it too late to transplant 4 weeks into flowering?

    I go with the transplant side, if she is rootbound she is going to slide out of the container very easily without much stress. You are going to need two people ........wife trusted friend someone to help you though. You will need to gently score the roots on at least one side of the rootball two...

    help with nutrients

    Your topic was about nutes but your question is about container size. 1 liter is not big enough if you don't know how to grow well, it will be a struggle for you. You really should have at least a 6 liter container to ensure a good root system and easier care of the plant it will give you a...

    help me out

    I am leaning the otherway, too much water for too long a period of time and a lack of N with all that yellow. You said for missing a day of watering.........one day isn't going to make them look that cupped and lifeless but too much water and the beginning of root rot will. Just my two cents...

    What nutrients are most needed

    It is going to take lots and lots of reading and studying, there really aren't lots of shortcuts. When you do your reading don't limit yourself to what is just about our plant but plants in general, just a suggestion but google, look up university studies on botany and biology, make folders for...

    How do you water a 5gallon bucket? How much water?

    I grow in 5 gallon containers also water 3 to 5 days depending on the size plant in the container and the weather. That being said they get a gallon of water with their tea mixed in I place the plant container in a bigger tub and water. I allow the plant to sit there for an hour of more to suck...

    Potassium Issues

    If it were a cal def you would have little yellow holes in your leaves also. Go with what you have on hand it won't take much to correct your problem. Since you realize that you are lacking in the area now I would advise to keep the suppliment in every watering right now. I don't know anything...

    Large plant having trouble.

    Back off the N a little bit in your waterings I would suggest you look to be on the edge of N toxicity. Couple of regular waterings and you should look better, but do keep feeding it except for the N. Good Luck

    The Walking Dead Plant

    You need to feed the poor girl. That is not N toxicity just N def coupled with with over watering which lead to your root rot. Bring along with some N get some color back in your leaves so that they will help you plant. I would further suggest that since you have grown this plant, in the future...

    Jamaican Dream EVA Seeds how much stretch during flowering?

    I mostly grow sativas and sativa dom and for me I like around 80% cloudy with as few amber as possible. Just me and with the sativa highs I don't like any of the couch lock effect. Hope it turns out good for you.

    Sounding good gud, wish I could get back to that many strains going at once, maybe after the elections here in Jan. they will lighten up again. Anyway, just stepped up two of the four colombian gold x lambsbread, I was sooo nervous this time only 11 days old but they were so tall and lanky. I...

    What nutrients are most needed

    jondamon is so spot on........reading the leaves and learning what nute or micro element is the key to good growing. If you are growing in soil outdoors learn to compost and what it takes to make a well balanced compost for plants in general. There is no magic bullet per se that it needs exactly...

    Potassium Issues

    Since I grow in soil and wasn't familiar with what you are using I would say you need to add something with more potassium you are running a low ratio for that. Never have grown in coco so I know nothing about that medium, but get something higher, on a tight budget use a couple of tablespoons...

    Anybody doing any Breeding this summer?

    I use rice in my pollen and it works great for me, my last breeding was with 14 month old pollen out of the fridge with great success. I just use a artist paintbrush and gently paint the buds I want to pollinate. The easiest and cleanest method I have found, but whatever works for a person is...

    just flushed my plant, when should I start nutes again?

    If you flushed it is time to add back or the plant will have more problems because you just leeched out all the nutes in the soil. Personally, at this point since the plant is so old, whether it be in flower or not I would transplant in say a 5 gallon container with good fresh soil. This will...

    male plant already has sacs opening, too late for cuttings?

    What I found to be the easiest for me is a a pair of I think it is 15 inch surgical tweezers and a small small glass snack bowl or bottle. The tweezers have become a very useful tool working with the plants. I can reach in pull the pollen sacs off gently without disrupting the plant. Also on...
