Help save some young lady's lives

Just moved four 2 week old Super Lemon Haze seedlings from vermiculite to bubble buckets. One is fine but the other three developed some serious brown spots over the last few days and the leaves are getting crispy.

I'm using AN Sensi Grow AB at 800 ppm. I didn't mean to go this high but I figured it would be fine since this strain supposedly like a lot of nutes. My Hanna combo meter stopped working a few days ago due to water inside so I had to send it in for a replacement. It should be back in less than a week.

To make things worse my central air stopped working so I had to have the coils cleaned this morning. Temps got close to 100 mid day for a few days.



These seedlings started off so well and I really still believe in these girls but I'm worried since I have no way to find ppm or ph and this seams to be getting worse by the day. Any suggestions would be lovely.

They look a bit nute fried. To say they like a lot of nutes, it would be more accurate to say they tolerate higher amounts of nutes, but even at this young, they really don't need anything yet.

Thanks punk I wasn't sure if it was a deficiency from nute lock out due to wrong ph or high salts or if its nute burn. I've never seen nute burn this bad but I don't have a lot of experience and you're probably right. I'm mostly worried about the seedling in the third picture. She has these dark brown spots all over her even on the newer growth. Can young MJ recover from this type of thing? If so what should I expect to happen? I would assume these leaves will fall off eventually?

I know somebody has to know more about this...............

too young for nutes

Thanks for the help I removed half the nuted up water and replaced with fresh water shortly after posting this. 3 are recovering well and have doubled in size. The girl in the third pic is hangin in there but she got burned pretty bad. Once I see enough new growth I may remove the crispy leaves that look really bad.

I'm loving this hobby and I'm glad these girls gave me some forgiveness so far!

Its a hobby that you work for. You're always their slave for their entire life cycle. Their every whim, met with zero resistance.

Well its almost a week since these ladies OD'ed on nutes... okay fine I did it to em.

Anyways they look pretty good. As you can see I topped them a few days ago so they lost some height and are growing new shoots. I also cut off the really bad leaves.

Is it just me or are these extremely bushy? especially for sativa dominant?



How does the size look for three weeks?

They're under 400+ watts of T5 6500k at 1 inch away... should they be larger right now? I'm just confused because some people say they switch to flower around 4 weeks from seed and I don't see how that could be possible with my current growth rates.

Any input on the size of these? They were germinated on the 8th and broke ground on the 11th last month. They're in 6 in Net pots. I almost fried em but they've looked healthy since they recovered. They're bushy as hell but they seam smaller than what I expected for 3 weeks. Any educated opinions anyone? ....anyone?

If they are from seedlings then that is about average. What they need more than anything is a straight run without any more shocks or interference to allow them to build up their adult parts and root systems. Because they are seedlings you are going to want to give them a long veg time, like at least another 3 weeks before you look at working out their sex (unless they are feminized). At which point there should be enough of their adult structures developed to handle budding.

Remember, things like 4 weeks from seed and the like are just numbers. You have to learn to read your plants and work around their growth rates rather than be too regimental with numbers. You want to wait until you see the female hairs form, its then that your plants have turned into teenagers so to speak, and are about ready to be able to handle flowering.

The trick is to provide them with the necessary environment and food to produce what they are genetically capable of producing rather than force feeding. Look for signs of readiness like when a plant begins to bush outward as well as upward. You are in hydro so you need to pay keen attention to the state of the roots, their color in particular, and smell. So a part of that signs thing is to look for good root development before deciding to switch.

Growing from seed is not a race, its a patients game and its a spin of the roullette wheel at times as well because its from seed and not a cutting of a plant that has successfully produced good bud in the past.

Good luck and remember less is more.
