Couple Details First:

Strain: Barneys LSD
Seed or Clone: Seed
Soil: Westfields with added John Innes

Just started growing LSD from the seed (Planted 2 weeks ago), problem is though that the bottom leaves are turning yellow and drooping

Ive been searching everywhere for a solution but there seems to be much confusion over whether im overwatering or underwatering

I would love some help... otherwise I think it would be time to end my very short growing career :|

def a over watering issue.

if it were a heat issue.. the edges of the leafs would curl upwards.

Just wait a few days until the soil dries out. Also, you should get yourself a soil moisture meter.. they come in handy from time to time.


And yes, I'm an "experienced" grower. just in case you were wondering about that part.. the answer is yes.

Good luck.. follow my directions and your plant will be fine.. they just need some time to dry out. Just hope that you haven't caused 'root rot'

from over watering.


General rule of thumb, is to wait until the top layer of soil is crusty (dried) before watering again.


Hope this helped.
peace.

well im watering every 4 days now, and im watering so that the water drains out the bottom but the plant seems to get dry realli quickly

i even bought a moisture meter but i doubt it even works because i stuck it in a pot of soil i watered and the reading still said it was bone dry lol

i guess ill have to start watering once every week now!!

i'd go with heathaa on this put them into larger containers you'll get to see the condition of the soil in the bottom of the containers no question anymore weather its over or under watered

yes u definately need to transplant. they are over watered. if you water say every four days at 8 oz of water try watering say 5 oz every three days. your info seems correct. u water till its totally saturated and ur plant gets overwatered and the soil probably does dry out quickly. that would explain why the plant is overwatered and the water meter says ur soil is dry. with the amount of water you use you know what you use. just try watering a lil less water at closer intervals. in most cases you can water once a week but depending on your environment this could be a stretch.

does look over watered. maybe your holes arent big enough or not enough holes for proper drainage... the big one definately should be in a bigger container tho. small one looks pretty, so it must not have anythin to do wit nutes... and perlite is always a great idea... bout 30%perlite/70%soil

Ye I made sure I put perlite inthe soil but as that was the first seed I planted I didnt put a large amount of perlite in the soil, but the second seedling seems to be growing a hell of a lot better. Thanks for everyones help!

Why would you help little lewis?

look at the comments he has been leaving for others!

"ill be honest with you buddy, ur plant is going to die and there is nothing you can do about it! just throw it out and try growing some tomatoes.... i hear even retards like yourself can grow them!"

"your plant is dead... get over it!"

Oi spastic its big lewis.... u spastic
Some more comments from little lewis:

"the best thing to revive a dying plant is to flush the plants with some bleach, the industrial strength version and it will kill all the bad antibodies and replace them with synthetic plant hormones that will make the plant flower and yield about 10,000 grams on a bad day!"

"dont listen to any of these guys they havnt got a clue, your plant is dead! end of!"
