hey guys one of my plant have a little problem, nothing major but the top leaves are a little bit droopy and she is the only one like this. weird cause the other ones looks fine .. they've been burnt a little bit by overfeeding but they are recovering right now. She looks like she's having heat stress but they are fairly far from the light and the heat in my grow tent is pretty good. They are in their second week of flowering, i always water every 4 days with a pH of 6.10 with 20% runoff and i feed them once a week with florabloom(0-5-4).(1 teaspoon per gallon) .is the bottom leaves slowly turn yellow cause they need some N? cause some guys doesent give any N during flowering and some does. i need some help here...!

Agreed...

It also appears that your soil has very little perlite in it....next go I'd recommend you buy some good soil and mix extra perlite in.....it also wouldn't hurt for you to get some cal/mag for that plant and the future......poor draining soil isn't the best for MJ....I like super fluffy/airy soil for all stages....I add lots of perlite to brand new soils......soil that stays wet too long is obviously easy to overwater and not ideal for your plants/roots.....symptoms of sad leafs like yours is showing above is a classic result of that.....but it's how we learn ....GL

There's lots of decent soils out there, but for me personally I use FFOF and I'm also having awesome results with Roots Organic 707 mix. I start my seedlings in happy frog ....all of those I mentioned above get lots of perlite added to them.....as far as how much exactly I couldn't tell you....I've been doing this so long and my batches of soil are so large I go by feel and looks...but I'd say roughly 25% would be good.....as far as your cal/mag goes...you can go by directions on the bottle ...but remember to keep an eye on your new growth...the leafs that are discolored and weird looking won't turn back to green again....but the symptoms should slow way down and your new growth should look much better....that's also guna depend on what stage your in....obviously deep into flower your not guna have many new leafs growing.......I'm not sure how experienced of a grower you are.....but If your new to the growing thing here's what I suggest for next round ..

FFOF soil 25% added perlite

Nutrients- Grow Big, Big Bloom, Tiger Bloom....unsulphered molasses to keep your soil happy.((optional))..Cal/mag.

I've grew some dank monster plants for years with this simple set up..I personally think it's one of the best ways to learn mostly because of it's simplicity with such good results...The only organic of these three nutes is the Big Bloom, just so you know.....GL to you

It's how we learn....the biggest improvement for your next grow will be your soil...that alone will improve your results in a big way.....GL with your current plants.


Remember, perlite is your friend lol
