any1 got ideas plz
 
There should be a tray under your pots right, to catch excess water. So the roots should be in there, right? So if you wanna keep them moist just make sure that the water in the res or plate or whatever stays put and dosent evaporate. You will keep the roots hydrated but the problem with that is the roots are exposed to light. They tend to die in those cases. No worries tho homie. If you got them in 14 litre buckets they should have plenty of root structure and you you should be able to trim those off instwad of saving them. Or do what i do none of the above. i just let the roots thatr come out of my bucket bottoms jus kick it. I dont cut or try to keep moist.
 
thanks ive each bucket sittin on another 1 the roots dont get lite shud i give them water tho or just let them grow
 
two weeks into flower now givin them both bio canna 4ml flores and 4ml bio boost to a litre of water a day the widow has little buds and white pistels are poppin up everywhere.any1 used biocanna or got advice im usin 400w hps in canna organic soil
 
my advice for next time is let the plants fully mature before you send them into flower, those are still babies flowering, which can cause wierd growth and stress,definately a loss of vigor. The way you tell when they are mature is once they show there preflowers. For this grow the only advice i can give you is take the 14l bucket out of the bucket and put it in a tray, dont let water always sit in the tray because it going to cut off the amount of oxygen the roots in the constant saturated soil recieve so thats less nutes and everything else. So after you water and you let the water sit, i recommend after about 6 hours or the next morning to remove the access water with a turkey baster or something from the tray. Forget about those roots, they will "air prune" themselves. You are growing in soil or? not hydroponics. Now just make sure the air is well ventilated and circulates around the plants constantly replacing lost co2. Try not to overwater or underwater, wait till about 2-4cm of top soil is dry then water.(best bet is a moisture meter until you get the drift) Keep the light as close to the plants as possible with out burning them or causing heat stress to avoid stretching and best possible penetration of light and the best lumen output since lumens degrade by half per every foot. so every inch counts. WARNING do NOT burn your PLANTS! Place your hand there were your plants are under the lamp and see if it hurts your hand after a few minutes. If your hand is ok then your plants are ok. About 30 cm to 45 cm distance from plant to bulb is the basic rule. Im as low as 18 cm but im using an adjust a wing with a super spreader, amazing they are! Well were are your plants? Do you have a nice white reflective surface around your plants so all the light is bounced back into the canapy? but avoid a reflective material underneath the plants. They do not reflect light from underneath, they breath with there lil stomata! Sorry bout the journal but KEEP IT GROWING, greetz SYZE
 
Woops forgot the yellowing. As for that that could be a few things. From nute defecincies, to a too high or low PH. Could be nitrogen, boron. I believe it comes from a low salt buildup in your medium, take them out of that second pot, everytime you water your babies there should be a minumum of 10% runoff water and up to 25%. Better way to get rid of some impurities, plant wastes and salt buildup. The plant just cant use all the salts that some of these fert companys use. So try that and maybe check your PH. if you dont have the cash for a ph meter then buy some ph strips(litmus paper) cost bout 10 bucks for about 500 tests, i think havent lived in the states in years.
