Babies are drying up

We've got 3 babies that were transplanted into 5 gal buckets about a week ago and 3 are looking pretty dried up. Is there a remedy for this, i.e. maybe chopping the top off? We are keep our PH pretty spot on and we're adding nutrients every 3rd day.

Read something before you try to grow weed. Everyone and their mother is an expert at growing weed until they try it. I am not trying to be an asshole or anything, but it would greatly help you. If you can't figure it out, then come back with a picture, and someone here most certainly will be able to help you. I speak for a lot of people when I say try and read something first though. The majority of us are self-taught, or at least were self-directed.

The best of luck.

P.s., I sincerely doubt topping it would be in the least bit beneficial for you, no matter what the case, (well, not for the purpose you are thinking).

Mupphet.Man is very correct.
Also when you need help. Along with a picture give as much information as possible. Temps, humidity, type of grow system, type of grow medium..... Basically everything you can think of.

why are you ading nutrient every 3 days? just wondering if theres a reason why you are doing that

On a side note about lack of information. MrSticky here has a very valid question. But then again we do not know. Because if you are growing in COCO, then feeding every three days would be cool. But if you are feeding every three days in Miracle grow soil, would be a disaster. See we do not know what grow medium you are in or how old the plants are.

i would suspect your adding nutes to a 5gal bucket full of nutes. further if you went from a small container to a 5gal bucket and tried to soak it you have further issues. your roots arent set yet and nutes are not needed as well as heavy watering.water around the root zone w/o nutes with ph balanced water, then expand watering a little more each time.

I just noticed something. Sorry to be picky, but you said you got 3 babies that were transplanted into 5 gallon buckets a week ago and 3 are looking pretty dried up. Why did you not say that all of them are dried up? I am sorry guys and gals. But when i noticed this I could do nothing but wonder why. Maybe I am just to dam stoned. :shock:
