Hey guys, I saw a couple of issues with my plant and I couldn't pinpoint the exact problem with it. I looked through the plant problem pictures but I cannot decide which one might be the issue.

I am growing durban poison 12/12 from seed. It is 21 days old as of right now. My temps range between 67( at night when the lights are off) to 92 ( max I have seen). Avg temp is 74 and my humidity is around 30 to 50, avg 42. I have Led grow light as well as CFL's. (Led is 16 inch above the plant, CFL is right next to it targeting inner nodes, its 2 inches away.)

Could you give me an idea what the issue might be? The issue started by itself, BEFORE the feed. (started feeding urine like 2 days ago, no kidding) The medium is plagron bat mix.

I will be leaving the country soon, hence the reason why I would like to fix this before I leave. Thank you very much.

Could be this, could be that...a little spot does not a problem make. Have you fed it anything? Who will care for it when you go,away?

Hey, I just started feeding it urine and I am composting banana peel/egg shells/coffee for future. But the spots were before the feeding started. So I am sure its not because of urine. xD.

I won't be gone for long, a friend will act as the caretaker. Everything is automated anyway, lights turn on and off by themselves as well as the fan. Only watering is needed.

Hey man, thanks for the input. But I am not lazy, I am doing it because of the articles I've read. I am %100 sure it's not because of urine, the issue was there before I started the feed.

I think plants in the ground can be peed on, long as it is not that real yellow pee, idk about potted plants....i think potted plants would do better with traditional sources of nitrogen. Best to do some reading though. I like your organic approach though. Compost takes a while but its great stuff.

Hey can u link me to the articles about urine fertilizers? I'm interested to read them, thx.

I've read somewhere in here its about :10 nitrogen. Supposed to work if you dilute it 1 part piss to 8 parts of water.
So I've been told...............

Back the bulb up a bit and ease up on watering and use water only a couple times.

Thank you all for your responses. I will dilute a bit more. Other than that today was a good day. The burn did not seem to spread out. Only the older burned parts were cracking/dry to touch.

I will keep feeding only water for two weeks. I am leaving tomorrow for 2 weeks of holiday anyway, It would be weird to ask my friend to pee for my plant anyway.

Hope your some health nut, organic or go home, kinda guy. Or I for one would not like to smoke what your growing. Urine has N in form of Ammonia Nitrate so diluting it down is a must. But with the shit people put in there bodies these days, with processed foods, prescrip meds and whatever else, you would be a fool to think that none of that is gonna be left polluting your plants.

Unfortunately true. Our STP processes the effluent stream returning the water to the river and the solid remains are dried and spread on the wheat fields upwind of us. There's a reason our area is called the Dry Shitties.
