    Plant is dying, dried out, over watered, not enough light w/PICS!

    completely normal, lower leaves and weaker leaves die off, the plant uses them for food until they shrivel and fall off. you can clip em if you want, it wont hurt anything. It'll focus more growth and energy towards the top of your plant.

    to make things easier, buy a gallon of distilled water for a buck, allow to become room temp and there ya go.

    18th Day /soil organic M.G./ pictures

    lookin fine, bury those stems up to the cotyledon leaves. roots will branch from the stem and more root = more dank bud. hows humidity levels? and are your plants in a grow room or closet or out in the open?

    Too early to fertilize seedling?

    I thought maybe switching the light schedule to 12/12 like it is would help force the plant to maturity to start showing its sex or preflowers. At that point I would continue on a 18/6 to veg the plant to about 2 ft. before flowering on the 12/12 again. Is it fine to use this method? Or would I...

    Too early to fertilize seedling?

    I trimmed the lower leaves because they were yellowing, burning, and dying. It also helps light get to the smaller leaves on the nodes. It seems to be growing just fine. Light schedule is sunlight from 12:01PM to 6:00PM & 6:01PM to 12:00AM under CFL. 12:01AM to 12:00PM dark. I am keeping it on...

    Too early to fertilize seedling?

    Lower leaves, and dead leaves were trimmed to produce two sets of leaves when they come back. Light schedule will be from midnight o one to noon dark and noon o one to midnight light. Still crossing fingers its a femi. I haven't seen any signs of sex yet. I'm guessing it still has more maturing...

    Too early to fertilize seedling?

    I kept it in the dark today until noon instead of putting back in the light at 5AM. I was putting it in the dark from 5PM to 5AM. Hopefully it will be okay. Its still grown more and looks fine. I'm going to go back to the 5PM to 5AM light schedule. :joint:

    Too early to fertilize seedling?

    I keep the plant under cfl from 5AM to 5PM and for the other 12 hrs of darkness, I have it in a closed cardboard box covered with a blanket so its completly dark, so no chance of herming. I am going to continue this for 1 to 2 weeks or until it shows sign of sex. depending on if its male or...

    Seedling to veg stage how long?

    they dont all grow at the same speed, each one is different. just be patient bro, once the root system is well established, your plants will take off. And wait a couple more weeks before fertilizing. Wait until the cotyledon leaves fall off. ( the very first rounded ones) and fert at 1/4...

    Too early to fertilize seedling?

    I'm using Western Family Organic Potting soil. Its already in a bigger 1 gallon 1 pint pot. I removed aluminum foil so hopefully thats what it was and not MG.

    Too early to fertilize seedling?

    okay I removed the foil. hopefully it gets better. I watered today, enough to moisten soil. I didn't over water or flush. Water is room temp distilled.

    Too early to fertilize seedling?

    Here are some more pics of what I think is MG burn. So I also need to wrap the pots the plants are in so the roots are in complete darkness? :-?

    Too early to fertilize seedling?

    The potting soil I'm using now is great compared to my backyard old garden compost soil I was using. I have heard many people swear against MG soil because of those little fertilizer balls in the soil, but I wouldnt know because I've never tried it. Anyway I dont want to transplant again. I'm...

    Mg plant burn

    yes there are drainage holes in the bottom and okay I can wrap them in dark colored construction paper or something. What about the burn? Is that why its burning since its in a clear ice cream container or maybe beacuse a little too much miracle gro?
