My plant is dying. I think its the MG.

Well this is my first grow and I had my plants under 2 150w HPS i received from my friend but just 2 days ago moved it under a 400w MH bulb. Fresh air is brought into the room from a duct and the temperature in the room nears 82 degrees F. Sorry for the poor pictures but they are the best i can do.



Cheers and I truly appreciate any help i receive.

**I moved the plant from MG to FFOF soil.***

I think that is a good possibility. When I read about watering it is very vague and never precise. My fault but the real question is will my plant survive?

If you can get the conditions right, it will survive. How often do you water it and with how much water? Are you giving it nutes? Try and give us as much info as possible.

i cant tell you it will but i can tell you if you cut off water fer a few days and get on a proper watering schedual it should recover.... let it dry til it just starts to wilt than pick up the pot feel the weight and water it with no nutes next time you water it feel the weight of the pot if it feels light water it dnt let it wilt i jus said that so you would get an idea of when it needs water

Well I was watering it once every 2 days but I read that people are saying at least 3 days. Nutrients i have not been giving any because i want to make sure this plant is alive first and foremost and do not way to mess around with mother nature until I'm certain she is a survivor. Also the leafs are very dry and crumbly. Stem is nice and strong and is withstanding tons of beating from my fan xD.

you can't go by number of days too many variables you need to learn to water when needed, if ther root bound you would feed every 2 days fer sure but its best to not go by a number of days and go by the weight of the pot or poke yer finger into the soil and if its wet dnt feed. it can be deciving as the top of the soil will look dry but just a half inch below it is still wet. dont flush or you will get nute burn with mg soil

ive used MG, with mixed results. i find it works fine for rooted clones, but it can be hell on seedlings. i find it best to cut it down with perlite or peat moss or both just to be safe if your doing seedlings. when i burned my seedlings up it was from lack of drainage. too much water just sat in the cup, releasing too much time release nutes. it rocked all my seedlings. this time around i made sure i had adequate drainage and these are doing pretty good.

its not mg! its most likely over or underwatered with a incorrect pH. that thing is not going to survive imo no matter what you do it looks too far gone.
