help my bottom leafs are falling off and turning yellow. They are also curling on the sides. What do I do. I'm in veg stage
 
Relax its pretty normal. How far along in the veg are you? The very first leaves your little one makes end up yellowing and falling off.
 
If the problem progreses it might be a nitrogen deff prob.. what kind of setup are you running..
 
more than the first set have fallen off its been like 8 leafs, and I can tell the next set above them are bout to turn, and I'm not sure about nitrogen diffeciancy I have been giving it good nitrogen

you could have been giving it some extra nitro but if its locked out by ph problems or others that could possibly be the problem..
 
that might be it, I'm using crappy mirical grow organic soil and I hear that mirical grows ph is bad so yea.. What can I do to adjust the ph?
 
go get a ph adjuster, for pools or fish tanks
They're cheap, at Walmart or any pet store, get drops and litmus paper, you will prolly need some ph up and down
 
Well at first I just had lemon/lime juice and my meter to work with and I had no probs with it but then I stepped up a little and got some of the ph down that you would purchase at a pet store for about 5 bucks worked perfectly..

K, if I can find that stuff I'll get it. But do any of you know whether mirical grow is more acidic or basic

Well first of all get a Ph meter asap.. It could be your just adding way too much miracle grow and your just creating more salts in the soil which build up and could be raising your ph as they add up, if thats the case and you ph is high your going to half to flush your plants with the same amount of water as your pot to lower the ph if that is the problem your having..
 
Dont cut the yellowing leaves off.. they have nutes in them that the plant will use in case its not able to uptake any through the roots, just let em fall off on their own or if they are very crispy and shriveled and fall of by gently yanking then its fine..
