Can someone direct me??

new2thefield · Jun 1, 2009

I started growing this clone from about 4 inches 2 weeks ago. This is only my second grow. My first 2(blueberry and fat bastard) didnt make it. I didnt know that giving a clone nutes every day would cause disaster. I learned!! So this Skunk I just leave alone other than watering and sitting it outside in the sun every day because i keep it under the small t5 in the house. It seems to be doing good but now i'm getting these brown crumbling leaves and about two of them with yellow spots. Can someone tell me how I can fix this? The rest of the plant seems to be doing fine.

Well i would say u need to check the ph and it could start recieving some nutes

new2thefield · Jun 1, 2009

k thanx. I just am a little uneasy about the nutes thing since the last grow. So about how often do you think I should give it the nutes?

ok guys....i started the nutes today. Now I have about 5 leaves with brown spots, like stains. The stems on those look kinda purplish brown and the first leaf that originally turned has gotten hard and crumbly but the rest of the plant looks beautiful. I'm worried that the other leaves that are getting the stains are gonna do what the first one did. Can I stop this process because it doesnt seem good. I know i'm new but this doesnt seem right.

Ok here are two things you need to do.

First read this guide on how to ph water

Second thing is this. Look at the new growth to see if your plant is getting healthier. The older stuff may or may not repair itself in time. But the new growth will quickly become like the old stuff if something isnt wrong.

You say you still are having a problem and id be willing to be that its a pph problem. Read the guide and get a ph meter, or a gh test kit

yea id say he has it or maby a magneisuim defficiency

new2thefield · Jun 3, 2009

how do u fix a magnesium defficiency?

jointluver · Jun 3, 2009

I would flush if i were you, and then check

HighThai · Jun 3, 2009

use epsom salt also known as bath salts or magnesium sulfate. it can be found at the pharmacy or garden shop. my plants looked similar so i flushed my plants n gave the some salt n now they're healthy again. also check ur watering schedule. prolonged overwatering can cause root rot n pythium which is a bich 2 get rid of

pitbudz87 · Jun 3, 2009

i get a teaspoon of epsom salt and put it in a measurin cup with water and microvave it to break down the crystals and let it cool to room tempature and then add it to a gallon of water and there ya go water your girls with that and let us know

proheto8008 · Jun 3, 2009

I would flush first and if the prob persist then try epsom salts. I only say because everyone does the same thing. They have ph problems, then everyone tells them to use epsom when all it was was bad ph fuckin with mag uptake.

flush first, if that dosnt work do what pit says. I also feed with epsom every other feeding no matter what.

new2thefield · Jun 3, 2009

I checked my ph and it was 6.4 so I figured that the ph was ok but the guy at the store told me that the foxfarm was pretty good with the ph thing . I'm gonna try the epsom salt. How many days should it be before i"ll should see results? I should not water the plant every morning before I sit it outside in the sun ? Thats what I,ve been doing. The sun beems pretty hard here in the rockies so I thought I should.

no estimated guess man i cant really tell you that but i would do it and water every two or three days man and ,ist them really good in the mornin when u put them out get the first couple of inches moist

proheto8008 · Jun 4, 2009

sounds good man. let us know what happens.

new2thefield · Jun 4, 2009

alright, i did the epsom salt and it seems to be responding well but now my ph is a little high.....up around 6.9. if I need to get it down, how can i do it without slowing my plant down because its growing and spreading like crazy.

new2thefield · Jun 4, 2009

heres what it looks like now and the new little guy.....he's a skunk too

bigwheel · Jun 4, 2009

Well if that is a dirt grow which it seems to be from looking...it not only don't need to be nuted each day, it dont even need to be watered each day. Person need to wait till the top layer drys out to the depth of an inch or two. Nearly all plants even non-weeds need watering to about the extent of an inch of rainfall a week. Works the same way on tomaters etc. Now your need for nutes depends on what kinda funky dirt you got them in. What kinda funky dirt you got? Some of it comes nuted from the factory etc. You also still got the ph too high. Rainwater is acidic..tap water is generally higher in ph. You need to ph the water till it shows up yellow in the little test kit. 5.5 maybe or thereabouts. Why you want it outside. Aint you scared the cops will see it?

Can someone direct me??
