hey man, im jus wondering is there any thing other then under/overwatering that causes drooping? my super silver haze has been drooping on all the new growth. shes been sucking up water like crazy, every morning the soil is bone dry on top. i water every day till i get a good amount of runoff. just fed with FF grow big for the first time like 1/10th strength, i jus put like 5 drops ina gallon lol but i dont think she is under of over watered, and my room gets pretty cold at night, could that cause new growth to droop?

if she is getting bone dry in a day shes prob not getting enough water

try letting alot of water stand in your drain plate and try to get ur heat down to slow evaporation

are you watering till runnoff?


DELICIOUCE RIDDLE your gonna have alot(more) of freinds soon

tht bud i had in my bowl stayed ther for a couple more days then i seald it up in a jar.,, smoked some 2day and it nocked me out cold for 1 hour my wife said nno more till bedtime hahahah

iv been watering till a good puddle comes out the bottom cuz i thought it wus underwatering. but when i jus checked on her she looks alot perkier =) but still a bit droopy on the top fan leaves. but the stems are getting really purple. shes super silver haze, so purple stems might be genetics? and the newer fan leaves are really rough feeling, and ridgid,sorta dried out feeling, idk if my camera picked it up or not. but iv read the diagnose ur plant threads n cant see any deffiencies. i topped her 3 days ago but she wus drooping befor i topped so i dont think its stress from topping.

and the humidity isnt very high in that lil vegg box. how can i raise it? its pretty cramped in there lol

Put a cup (or bowl) of water in front of your fan it will boost the humidity as the fan evaporates it

Most well illuminated plants will reach for the light unless your watering is off. Now a indica is gonna droop more than a sativa since there fat leaves.

A product called Liquid Light + Penetrater will give you what your looking for from your leaves. I FF it to my plants now and a couple hours after I spray it some leaves will raise up 2 inches or more. Very noticeable.

Riddle,

Finally got my grow journal started and pics of my girls posted. When you get time can you please stop by https://www.rollitup.org/grow-journals/293652-first-grow-opium-clones-soil.html and tell me what you think is going on with them?

Hey riddle

I topped these two girls today and they are realy drooping now. I think it is the stress of the rain and the topping all being done so close together?

Mixed up ap batch of tonic for em, H2O2,molasses, 7 drops 10/15/10 (1/4 strength).

Shoul I go ahead and feed em tomorrow? It will be three days since raining? I guess I will wait to see how much has wickked off from them?

Here is a couple pics, what do you think?

Thanks as always,

Big

Yes I would feed em because they are kinda yellowing but remember they are still young so feed em lightly and for sure wait till the water is wicked off, the smaller the plant the longer it will take

Thanks man, That's what I thought to. A little yellow. Will update when I feed.

Do you think the tonic I mixed up will stay good for maybe up to a week?


Peace

Don't know have never tried to keep any?

I think if it starts clouding up or showing signs of sediment, I will get rid of it. It was cheap to make anyway. I think I will keep the air stone going to keep it agitated.

as you can see they are doing WONDERFUL!! never seen them this dark green and are VERY perky

it has "raind" twice and i just fed theyr 2nd feeding

THANKS RIDDLE & UB my girls were about to die

so i feel much more confident now so much less stress over my girls and more reading them thank you UB and Riddle cant wait to start my next batch with happy girls gonna try the pinch above second node after 6 or 7 are there and keep it green by slow upfeed till i get slight burn then back to prior lower feeding then keep it green till the end by keeping some N in bloom while keeping it moist next batch is gonna be all one strain i know foxfarm isnt cheap but it worked well so next batch im gonna do 4 in ff with ff nutes and 2 in cheap soil with the peters, dynao gro, jacks classic or w/e i can find with a good npk

the lemming noob in me still wants to test the advanced nutes but my heart is saying line them up and do the advanced nutrient challeng with a 240grain jhp and be done with it

heres a pic of one of my happy pre98bubbakush girls close up 5 1/2 weeks into flower i didnt realize how big 10 mega pixels was until i went to 100% then cropped it lol i think it was you riddleme talking about 15mega pixels that must be like a microscope all zoomed in

Great read! just finished all the mentioned suggested reads and as soon as my next paycheck comes in i will be ready to order the books!
rep+sub for you sir!
here is my first grow ever... just threw some bag seed in some soil and had 3 sprouts a couple days later. didnt know anything about growing so i started researching.
glad i found your thread!
here is the only fem i had out of the three.
dunno how old (didnt expect it to get this far) 10 days into flowering. got some advanced nutes "bloom" from a friend for free so i am trying that stuff. waited for it to turn yellow before i fed it trying to learn it. I thinks its over watered, i have not made it rain yet (just finished reading everything). under 400watt HPS
dunno... what you guys think?

Welcome, glad you enjoyed it. I am really glad to see folks taken the time to read the whole thing even though the answers are there

Yes your plant looks a bit over watered but could simply be the variables not dialed in correctly, now that you know how to do it that should not be a problem.

Also looks like she wants some N, she is yellowing

but other than that she is lookin good

If you start a journal let us know so we can watch

Well I took some new pics this morning after setting my new camera to do 15 megapixels (when I got it was set to 8 and I left it there)

I uploaded some more to my journal putting one here so you can see my trichs

Now that you know how to grow your plants will get there and they are looking good by the way, remember everything is relative and you'll be growing big buds in no time

Found a hermie in my grow room
might have been in there for three days or so with pollen sacks before i noticed it.

My Question is if it pollenated my other ladies,
how long before i see pollen sacks on the girls?
