Help...my baby sick...

Ok I came home to find my plant looking... well sick. First I notice its leaves had patches of yellow and light green coloring. Then I notice the tips of her leaves drooped. Im worried. I hope the pictures I attached helps. What should I do.

that looks like over-feeding to me. "The claw" is a sign of too much nitrogen, they are pretty damn green, which is good. Do you know what the pH of your nutrient solution is?

It looks great I wouldn't concern myself with that yet. Give it plain water next time you water but I wouldn't try and "Fix" anything because sometimes we do more harm than good trying to overcare for our plants. That's a healthy looking plant.....

I use a color coded ph tester and I keep it light green. That's like 6

Ok I will water with no nuts and see if that helps. Thanks guys this is my first grow so I guess I paniced

Yeah i think you can cut back on the nutes. and get a digital ph meter. I've read that the strips aren't all that good.

Should I get one of those ph tester from smoke shop. Haven't found a flower shop yet.

Looks to me like you should give her a little more time between watering.

So more time between watering and no nutes

When a plants leaf curls like that well, thats an indication of over watering. Cannabis grows best when allowed to dry out some between watering.
I suggest you skip a day, if that doesn't work skip two days. Depends on how much drainage you have.

If pH is off leaves twist sideways, if light is too close they curl up like a canoe. Too much water they curl down or too little water and the stems droop.

All pH testers work. Strips, the bottle with the drops or the meters.
Its not as important in soil as it is in hydro but one thing to remember is when you add nutes you lower the ph some. I add about 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda to my 15 gal res when I add nutes to correct the pH.

I also suggest u to go to Lowes and buy a Soil Tester.. You can get one that tests Moisture, PH, Light and it's only 10$,,, Sounds like something your going to need... Here is a pic of mine, (if u can see it, its still in the green but almost to the red.. Once it hits the red its time to water!!!

That's my thoughts also. I noticed that the soil composition looked a little on the dense side, not allowing adequate draining.

What's the name of the device

I use thunder head soil. At least that's what I think it's call. Don't have a bag right now to verify. What should I do to loosen up soil.
