what is wrong with the leaves?
Im feeding it appropriately? Brown tipped leaves, some white/yellow parts?

Wow. Cause they were clouding light from the bottom leaves?
Does it matter?
Anyhow, for anyone else who can answer this issue, please do! :D :blsmoke:

Also, Ive attatched another picture, close to the bottom, you can see the leaves that couldnt get light and are browning. Is that why my leaves are looking this way, lack of light?

Brown tips usually come from overfeeding,white spots can be from bugs.
I cant really help you very specifically from that pic.
Be careful with miracle grow and don't use it if the bag has become at all damp as it concentrates the nitrogen and can cause severe leaf burn:blsmoke:

most likely are they curling under also? if so its def over feeding how old are they? use way less than what the directions say for a new plant it may seem like a little but its alot for the plant

From your new pics i would say that as well as slight overfeeding its also light deficiency from your low powered tubes.
Remove the diffusers from your tubes for a start and make sure the tubes are at least 50 watts.

If your on a really tight budget you can add a 250/300/500 watt halogen rig to gain a bit more bud,make sure it is at least 12" away from your plants so it doesn't burn them and that you have a fan on it.

If thats no good i would suggest getting a few more fluro tubes,100 watt ones if you can
The overfeeding that you've done is very slight,i wouldn't worry about it to much,just use water for the next 10 days and bear in ind that your plant will not grow very quickly in such poor lighting so it will need less nutes:blsmoke:

Ohhhh . So only give it water? How long does this happen for? Sorry :) Noob and enjoying it!


Also, I have those wall lights there, just to be there, not needing them. I have two grow lights above and 300 watt ones on the walls also.

Well if you have all that light i dont really know why the plant is so skinny unless its hemp or some kind of mexican outdoor sativa that doesnt like indoor lights:-?

10 days is fine for flushing,then just use half strength nutes.

yeah, weird isnt it? Its super strong , as the female it came from was sold as "chronic" and was about 150$ overpriced compared to what I normally buy. Its a weird sensation , almost like a uplifting couch lock? If that makes sense. So, I bought the seeds and both plants (the other got attacked by my cat and died) and they look just like the one it came from.
Could be mexican, I recieved them in southern Cal. New pic of setup. Its ghetto, but all i can do.

To be honest with you if i had to lay cash on it from your pics i would guess outdoor mexican sativa weed.
Meant to grow very tall outdoors,sucks indoors.
It will give you a buzz but nothing really special.
Sorry to put a downer on it,still worth growing but the buds will probably be thin and fluffy,but still worth toking up.
I think you've done pretty well for your first go.

Why don't you order some good indoor seeds from a proper seed bank and start them of in your room and get some decent nugs.
I started a long time ago and i make all my own strains now and i would never pay for street rubbish again:blsmoke:
Looking at your new setup pic you seem to have some height in there so you may be able to get that sativa a lot bigger and taller than i first thought.
Use molasses weekly to fatten and sweeten it up.

i cant afford HPS, or I wouldve done things that sort of way.

Also, thanks dr.high, ill check out your shizz.

natmoon, im parinoid, to be honest. im embarassed, but the people i know ordered and it was stealth...this plant i have now started outdoors, i brought it in due to an unforseen early frost up here and i think that move may have stunted its growth

The plant may well be a killer sativa for all i know as until it starts to really go into flower you just cant really tell,just give it tlc for anything up to 14 weeks to flower a good sativa and because i now can see in your later pics that your grow area has the height and light capable of dealing with it you may well be able to pull it of and end up with a nice large stick of sativa:blsmoke:
