Alright so I have 4 plants growing pretty strong and healthy...I think some bugs might have munched on one a little bit but im going to relocate them soon again. Here are pictures of 4 of them and the very bottom leaves seem to be dieing or turning yellow I guess but the rest of the plant looks fine what does this mean? and should I try putting miracle grow on them?

thanks

the bottom leaves die off eventually, nothing to worry about, bit of bug damage, get rid of that, that something that will bring u down, good luck mate
 
thanks for a quick response...what should I do to keep the bugs away? relocate or spray something...im afraid to spray anything on my plants or near them...and what kind of bugs do this to the plant?
 
could be almost anything mate, have a really close look at the plants and see if u can see anything on it, check under the leaves, and have a quick look at the soil, and yeah id reocate, move them inside if u can
 
An easy pesticide would be letting tobacco soak in water for a day or so, then straining all the tobacco out. Use the tobacco water as an insect deterrent. It works. ;) You'll probably have to buy something for a fungicide later. Good luck.

That yellowing in the leaves has happened so quickly becuse of the nutes in the soil. It shouldnt be too bad, but watch it.
 
alright thats what I thought...cant rly move them inside I can over night but during the day I put them outside perhaps If I put them on the back porch in the sun out of the woods it would greatly decrease the chance of insects attacking them. I live in the middle of nowhere on 40 acres of land covered in pine trees so I have no real worries about sitting them on the porch haha also do they look ok in the pots they are in now...will they grow to a pretty decent size in those pots..im really just growing some smoke plants nothing to sale or anything...or do I need to transplant them ?
 
I think you are fine right now on the pots!! Everyone around here says to transplant when you get see the roots on the bottom! You will definitely have to transplant eventually because they are too small and even though you are just growing them to smoke you still want a descent yield!! I hear the tobacco thing works well too!! Drop a couple of cigarette buts into a gallon of water and let it sit for 24 hours...then water with that. That should take care of your bugs because they dont like it! Sucks that you cant move them inside because that is the way to go....controlled environment is lovely!! Although they can grow way bigger outside!! GOOD LUCK and keep us updated!!
 
I dont think they are overwatered it hasnt rained here in a few days and the sun stays out all day with tempertures anywhere from 95-102 degrees during the day and anywhere from 70 to 86 degrees at night...and ill try the cig. water this wont damage my plants though will it?
