Guys and gals,

Im distraught! Please someone help! These are Reserva Privadas OG Kush.

This started to happen sometime yesterday (Sunday). The drooping leaves seems to be spreading to a few others which is worrying.

Running them in hydro and have them in a bath with Cataract Kush. They are 1-2 weeks into flower. no massive changes in fertilsers and the EC is 2.3 and the PH stable as well. There is no problem with the Cataract Kush so im guessing its a deficiency, the OGs must be lacking something? The CK's are perfect so its only the OG which has a problem.

Iron deficiency crossed my mind but im praying for a fast answer here so I can make the fix tomorrow. 2 days and it might be alright but 3 days and well.....help!

Thanks in advance.

Odd man. Especially when the others are doing ok.

Yet it's quite obvious that it's wilting, not just 'a' deficiency but the moisture is out of the stems and leaves. Which strongly suggests a root problem. Any sprayers clogged or something else that affects only that plant?

Its not only that one plant. I can see the drooping leaves starting to develop on the plants surrounding it. Only the OGs though. All seems good on my end which is why im here asking for help. I dont get it and it worries me...

Im praying an experienced OG grower will step in as Ive got another 40 OG Kush clones waiting to go in another bath, Thank you for trying to help! :)

You're welcome and I hope will post the answer you are looking for soon.

Going to take two more stabs at it myself:

1. Rootbound?

2. Potassium deficiency? (my money is one this one)

Either could explain the look, just odd that it happened so fast.

Good luck!

Id advise ditching the hydro and going with coco. Lot easier just worrying about ph.

NExt 40 could b safe in coco

Hey bro, sorry to hear your girls are having troubles.. :(
I have the OG#18 going right now is my growroom! :) only thing is I have soil as my medium. What I have learned from the times I've grown her is she loves her nitrogen, and cal mag.. and will gladly take bloom boosters as well in flower.
Other then that she has been a really forgiving strain imo. I had let the ph get down to 5.4 for almost 5 days, and got noticed her bottom leaves drooping! So I checked all that (ph) & found that! I immediatly fixed the issue, and ever since hadn't had any problems.. so you say your temps aren't running high?
What does your temp stay at most of the time? * just keep in mind though, she is a nute whore!! Right now I have my nutes I feed her with set around 750ppm of nitrogen and sensi-cal (bloom) if that tells ya anything.. ;)

OG Kush is known to be Calcium and Magnesium deficient as a rule, so if your nutes are low on them you may want to swith to a brand like FLora that is naturally high in calcium and magnesium, or supplement it with calmag if you havent done so already

thanks everyone! going to try and grab some cal-mag today and will consider lowering the EC by a point or two. I did actually refresh the fertilsers in the bath last night and so the EC will likely have come down a bit but will check and report back with pics + update this evening. If you cant get calmag, ive read epsom salts will do. any other suggestions?

That's the exact nute lineup I am using now bro! "Flora" Advanced Nutrinets!! They have a damn good deal on there startup box! It is loaded with the entire lineup. And I have yet to have any problems with it with any of the 20 some strains I am running now.. ;) good shit it is!! I believe I paid like 35$ to 38$ bucks for it, which isn't to bad imo...

Epsom salt is good for the (mag only) bro.. for the calcium you could use (chalk also 4 calcium) also you could take the Tums & crumble them up & then mix them with hot water to dissolve, then mix it with ur water & feed.

CaMg+™ calcium magnesium supplement

"CaMg+" is the ideal supplement to provide a natural source of Calcium and Magnesium, critical elements in a plants growth cycle. These elements are often absent in many fertilizers and potting mixes, resulting in stunted growth. CaMg+ is biologically catalyzed from oyster shell, dolomite lime, and natural plant extracts. Through the use of organic compounds, CaMg+ increases calcium and magnesium transport into the plants. This optimizes plant metabolism, enhancing growth and creating healthier flowers and fruits.


Hope it helps bro.. ;) Dank

At that stage at 1.6-1.8 and then push towards 2.0-ish.

Epsom salt isn't directly available, so if it's a cal-mag def then I would go for the real bottled liquid version. I also suggest to keep the PH rather strict beween 5.8 and 5.9 so you don't lock out Mag going lower or lockout potassium going higher.
