ur soil looks ruff, what's in it?

 

[carokann]

its mg. but i put the compost tea in it. aaywayz, you know whats with it?

 

[max316420]

If it's mg then most likely it already has time released food in it so you might be burning them... mg scares me, I would do a really really good flush then feed about quarter strength

looks like over something?I would try flushing it.I see alot of people with the same problem lately from these teas.especially a compost tea ,this is like the third thead ive seen with a compost tea problem.I would say too acidic.The plant is sickly,could be from overwatering too,like the soils not airy enough.
How fast is it growing now?

Is it MG? Doesn't look like it. If its got fert balls you don't wanna flush it out or you'll just give them nute burn. You gotta let MG Reg dry out at least a few days or you'll over feed em'.

and if it's already overfed then it's just gonna die

yeah that looks like overfeeding... sometimes they can come back, and that one looks like it could live, but its hard to say. all you can do is flush with plain water and hope it recovers

my first grow i use mg soil, and it did require a flush to save a plant, but i did not experience overfeeding in the process. i'm not saying it can't happen though. in either case, there's not much you can do to help that plant

i planted the 4 seeds exactly the same as you can see 3 of them are doing fine, but the other one maybe it was just a defective seed or somthing, like a runt in the litter. im pretty sure they are not overfed because for 2 weeks i just used plain water and even flushed them once which they loved. its just odd that this one has been like this the whole time(sickly). they have only received 1 organic tea feeding which they really loved and grew about 2 inches overnight with it. so im sure its not overfed. maybe underfed im thinking. the tea was very basic mollases,kelp extract,mexican guano 12-0-0 and worm castings.

Well I know with the fert balls they feed everytime you water. Maybe it was a month or two in when yours were wearing out or something. Because if you do they early on you'll just burn them to death. It's like trying to flush a plant with a nutrient solution. What kind of MG were you using?

it was started in mg potting soil in a 3 gal pot then transplanted to a 10 gal tupperware of mg organic choice after i had to flush it... lol again that was my first grow though. we all make mistakes

Flushing fresh MG worked for you? Considering they have water released nutes in the soil, you weren't flushing but feeding right? I don't understand how you can flush a soil that has nutes in it without feeding the plant in the process?

it wasn't that fresh. it had been in the pot for around 3-4 weeks, and was looking stressed from overfeeding, so i flushed the 3 gal pot with a total of 5 gal. plain water, and it took a couple days to recover but it seemed ok. i haven't used mg since so i can't say i know much about the time released ferts or how they're supposed to work.
