What is the problem with my marijuana plants? Take a look and see if you can help me.

Hey,

I think my problem is over-watering but I'm not 100% positive. As you can see the two bottom branches appear to be dying or appear to be deficient of a certain nutrient. And all the leaves are curling down toward the stems. Is my plant going to die?
I have posted some attachments, please take a look. It is a clone from an OG kush mother plant. I know originally the plant was under lights and now it is in direct sunlight for about 6-10 hours everyday. I cant test the ph and i know its garden soil taken from my garden and some little rocks with some dry dirt from around my yard. Probably a mistake. Please help.

forgot to add that I have 4 crappier strains growing on this same method. Much larger, and they look really healthy. Not sure if OG kush is just pickier about its environment, because its about 80-90 degrees but i feels much hotter.

Probably either over watering like you said, how often do you water?

Or it could be trying to grow an indoor strain, outdoors without at least trying to harden it off. You say 6-10 hours of sunlight a day? I'm not sure but most need a little more than that if I'm not mistaken.

Could be your soil as well, I just had my own fit of soil problems within the last month or so. It's a bad thing to work around.

It is hard to tell form the pics, but do the leaves have a bumpy texture to them?

thats plenty of direct sunlight as the plant will get indirect sunlight throughout the rest of the day, 5-6 hours of direct sunlight is all thats necessary, dnt no whats wrong tho nvr encountered it, id say lay of the water for awhile (until the soil dries) and get some drainedge holes (if u dnt already have them) ur plant should be salvagable considering there is still green growth on it, these are tough plants, but u have to correct the problem immediately,

not lacking anything not a ph prob. transplant and see if the soils wet or dry. if it was a clone it may not have been ready for direct light

I watered it about 2 times a day for 3 days then this started happen and i tried to not water it but it rained... Does anyone know if this plant will die?

overwatering

transplant in a bigger pot with dry dirt. no need ever to water twice a day

Im getting good medium tomorrow, was just going to go and buy some real soil at the store I also have miracle grow formula (water mix), not sure if that is a good idea to use. I dont have enough money right now to buy any worm castings, perlite, moss, etc... Basically I'm the "poor-man's method" type of guy. Scared also that if i stress it out to much it will hermaphrodite. the leaves are not bumpy but they feel kind of paper like and there is one draining hole. It is also not growing upward but rather growing more leaves which I am pretty sure means stem growth will come shortly after. Ohh and the pot is 1' by 1'. And right now i have a fan blowing on the plant and the dirt to counter act the wetness. There are also hole punctured through the dirt to the bottom to allow oxygen to get to the roots. So if i am right and please correct me if i am not, my plant should live.

So i took it out of the pot it was in and the roots have not grown at all the but plant is larger. I put it in a new pot with miracle grow soil and regular organic soil. It has not shown signs of improvement yet so I hope it lives.

Looks like the plant/clone did not have a sufficient roots system yet for those kinds of temps and intense light....I would move it indoors to a cooler enviroment and keep it under a couple of CFLS until it recovers and gains some vigor....

Then at least keep it in the shade away from direct sunlight....

Thats not the problem, the problem is that my car does not work as of right now and there is no store that sells those bulbs in walking distance. actually there is a smart & final i believe i will go look.

Maybe its your soil, because it looks like the roots can get any oxygen with that soil. Try getting some better soil and mix some perlite into it so the roots can breathe a little. Looks like its being strangled, just my 2 cents.
