Plants wilting HELP PLEASE

parstains · Jan 23, 2020

Hey guys I'm pretty new to growing indoor I have autos going in my tent and about 2 weeks into flowering.
This is what they look like in the morning after the light has been on all night light will turn off in about 2 hours from when I took the picture for 6hrs I have them on a 18/6

I've read it's normal for them to wilt before lights turn off but this seems excessive.

I bought some epsom salts trying it on one plant thinking maybe a MG deficiency but I really dont know.

Also have some leaves drying up in the picture may be from my cooler air intake was blowing on that area of the plants which I changed. :weed:

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Also when the light turn back on and check on them before it stays on all night they are looking good not wilting
Thanks

How long before lights out do you notice they start to droop.?
I'm currently growing my 1st auto and only my 3rd indoor grow but they seem to droop earlier than the photos did and more "severe".

I only notice at 5am might need to get up in the middle of the night and check them they droop like this 4 hours before lights out then when it's on they seem stronger.
Your having the same issue?

These are white widow auto
My last grow was OG kush didnt seem to have this problem.

Almost identical to what you are describing. At about 4 hours before lights out they start to droop a bit and within an hour/ hour and a half they look similar to your pictures.

Hi Guys,
Not sure about the wilting. But plants occasionally will lose a leaf. I have a great looking plant right now that has a single leaf showing profound Mg deficiency. I give calmag so am not worried.

But a bunch of ugly leaves spells trouble. How bad is it?

It's normal for plants to droop. They look fins to me. Maybe could use more water.

Sorry but I don't recall the details of your grow...but ugly non-specific leaves like that can indicate a more global issue. Toxic salt accumulation does that too.

Sorry about that. Didnt provide the complete details as I should have. I'll post the details I know now

parstains · Jan 23, 2020

7 auto white widow
4x4x8 tent
1000w hps
Have exhaust going outside smaller fan and filter need to upgrade soon.
Intake fan was put to the top of the tent. Looked like it was giving the plants wind burn near it when it was on the bottom.
PH the water at 6
18/6 light cycle
Just used a basic super soil from my hydroponic store.
Nuts are green planet 2 part plus additives
RH 50%
Temp 28 lights on
17 lights off
That's the details I know hope that can help let me know if I'm missing anything or things I should probably invest in
Thanks guys!

Not an organic grower. Not an auto grower.

This water only super-soil thing is getting people in trouble. In order for it to last for the whole grow...it has to be pretty rich. Small plants seem to do poorly because of that. I know people try to avoid up-potting autos. But I really feel it would be best to start them in something milder. So when they go into the supersoil...they can handle it.

Quick questions...

How old are they? Are you using nutrients also along with the supersoil?

Forsure I've seen this pre mixed super soil this is not that it's just basic soil no nutrient mix I don't have the bag with me or I'd give you more info. But I may be wrong!
