Hello there! I've recently lost my first plants in decent size, due to bad soil, pests and stupidity. :) I washed my growroom, bought new soil, new nutes and repotted all plants with new soilmix. Hope this round goes better... Now i ask for your guidance. I use a 180w UFO with Bridgelux LEDs...

I tried to cut away the worst parts. Most leaves and even some tops. Took the time for experimentation aswell. I now got a bunch of cutlings and a couple branches standing in a cup of water. Just to see if theyll get better. I guess i better spend time plan my Hindu kush auto (regular) army...

Any advice? Wait and see? Spray with water? Cut down to cutlings?

Ok! Shes showing signs of life even though 90% of her looks like itll drop any second. The roots where pretty bad, a few healthy in the bottom. I think the necrosis is taking her down quite bad, even the green semi-healthy leaves are 10-50% dark and deadish. Here comes a close-up on the...

She looks even worse today, some green leaves still but most are hanging and drying out... Any last ideas? Should i spray her with water to try to keep her from drying out while she recovers? Do she still have a chance to recover even with almost dried out hanging leaves? Should i take some...

I'm going all in. Removing 90% of all the plants soil, washing every pot and then mixing new not soaked soil for them. Even the other plants got close to root rot, that soil i bet is the reason ive been doing so bad in my first 6 months, providing the gnats with perfect conditions. My idea...

Oh ok! Thanks alot sir. :) Thing is i got the feeling shes going down quite fast, i bet tomorow shes a dry bush. Maybe i could repot her with only the soil stuck among the roots and perlite? just for a day or 2 untill the old soaked soil dried out? I'm getting ready for desperate...

The soil aint completely fresh though... Maybe i should repot her again with all new soil and extra much perlite for better drying? I just got the Dolomite so no, i just added some to the top, but cant water it down. I used some nasty version of the neem oil or something, Bionim K. I have a...

The PH is a measurment of the balance between OH- and H3O+ if i remember correctly, if the run off is PH5, then it's a fact that the soil includes enough OH- to change the PH of the water. Ok, i watered with a pesticide yesterday, she looked like soaked shit this morning aswell so i replanted...

I agree, she does. :( But thats what some people said about her and her sister 3 months ago and now the sister is all i have to smoke. ;) The thing is that i plan to take the grow outdoors quite soon, up untill then shes most of what i have to grow other then a army och auto seedlings and a...

Ofcourse! Thanks :) I did find the main issue i bet so barely any sleep for me this night... I have a uprising population of spider mites! =( Theyre few but still enough to make me think i had CA deficiency. Could it be these nymphs or none-adults that does the dmg? Hungry little fuckers...

Since the ph seemed to low i went up and watered with some ashes and water at PH9.5ish, still below ph6.5 on the run off... I'll get some chalk. :D I hope she will recover! Some leaves actually stand quite nice while many of the small green tops hang like theyre ready to rot. :( Will she be...

Thanks for bringing me hope! Dolomite and superthrive, shame it's souch a huzzle to find good growing stuff here in Swe. If you ask one complicated question the helper in the plant shop gets a wierd look and you never wanna come back again because you know how missinformed every fucker...

I flushed with PH7 water, run off ended at PH5.8-6. :( Garden chalk or dolomite-chalk, those must be dolomite lime right? Swedish sucks...

It sure will! I fucking bet the breakdown was mostly due to the PH... I'm quite sure my soil ends up a bit below PH6 and looking at that chart, thats not very good. Since i flushed them all with Neutral water, maybe the PH still is a bit low? Should i do a last addition of some ashes and water...

I sure do mate! Probably, no one have done as much work as i have, with like 40g product in 7 months... :D Thing is, i've only used CFL up untill a couple of weeks ago. The UFO is new and was my hope when it comes to support this dying decently sized lady. :( Also, i guess growing with gnats...

Thank you so much everyone! The pear-buggers i have doesnt really look like the root aphids? They got more of a smooth orangy pear body, cant recon any dual ass pipes. Thing is, her sister, vegged for 5months before she went into flower, in 20/4. Now shes 7 months and ready for harvest any...

Awesome mate! I'm really not sure still, if i have them, i've only seen them as super juvenile. 1mm long yellowish pear shaped buggers running around in the soil. I'm quite sure i got Gnats and havent seen adult root aphids yet. Going up for some cleaning and researching right away. This...

If the pear shaped little fuckers in the soil, aint fat siblings to the cute little white slim ones that i cant remember the name of, then im quite sure i got these bastards... No wonder my clones wont last many days! Damn damn damn damn. Hydrogen peroxide-time?

Soil: Homemade mix of organic veggie-soil (soil + organics), perlite & some pine bark. Since i obviously was way worse with plants then i assumed when i first started this project, i'm in urgent need of help. Somehow i have managed to keep my Loweryder #2 alive for almost half a year (yes)...
