Hi im new to the whole forum thing but I cant seem to find a solution to my problem. I have a red diesel goin on 2 weeks in flower I come to look at her early a couple mornings ago and she's wilted dry and the leaves are curling under. Im giving it molasses and dyna gros bloom. Both givin properly. If anyone can help im clueless ive had about 3 successful grows prior to this grow and its jus one plant if mine. 1418517568963.jpg 1418517612048.jpg 1418517612048.jpg

Its wayyyy too early to give molasses....plus youre supposed to give it to them the last month, plus molasses is a waste of money and this is what it does to plants that have an excess amount of molassses. You have extreme case of spider mites, plus who knows what else. Get some avid spider miticide, give it 2 back to back applications, and start flushing that plant. Those plants are starving and you need to give them an assortment of canna friendly nutrients they need or you ARE just going to have problem after problem

This is the only lady out of 16 that look like this... I dont think its spider mites.. I was thinking more of a root rot but I had my magnifying glass out look for mites and no sign... good to know that molasses should only be used in the last month. Its only something I used to make my unc happy as he insisted it was a must. I can stop that immediately.. my next experiment was to use hydrogen peroxide to clean my root system up. Cuz its very aparent my plant is sick..

If you put peroxide in there it will mess up you micros bacteria thats needed. Is it possible to transplant it into a bigger pot? No, spider mites is not the reason for the droop but you plants are covered in mite damage

In stead of experimenting on a newbie level.... I would research alot more before just dumping stuff into my pot. Be careful whos advice you take and research the advice given...ALWAYS! Even mine!

I know that is a down side to peroxide kills everything good and bad. Its a risk... and I think its jus the quality of the cheap camera phone I have 2 days ago this plant was perfect. Being more of a sative hybrid the leaves were very skinny and wer beautiful as soon as they drooped they became even thinner and more brittle. I will try the miticide it couldnt hurt. But is that the only thing it could be. I think I am goin to transplant this plant blew up during the last week of veg.

Flush.
That grow bag looks a lot smaller than that 5 gallon bucket. The plant a lot bigger than the bucket.
Howl much soil is in the bag.

If a flush makes it look better and then droops quickly again you may be getting root bound.

After transplanting it to a bigger bag it was very apparent that the problem was that it was root bound and I mean VERY roots clinging to the bag!

Molasses feeds the soil, the soil will in turn, feed the plant.
You "can" use a molasses at any time. I use it in making AACT teas. (it's what feeds the bacteria so it can grow)

The general thought use period for molasses is late bloom.....
If I'm going to add something directly to the feed solution. I like Kelp extract during all phase's of growth better!

I use Age Old Kelp.
READ THIS from Age Old's site. I've used kelp for years. I swear by it.
