Plant Moisture Stress - Symptoms and Solutions

jjfoo said:

I've been set free, too. I have a hard time relating to people on y old forums and have lost interest. I'm growing tomatoes in my back yard and see the direct link to my indoor growing skills.

Today I got some nutes from a horticulture company for vegetables, lots of N all the way to the end. This is just the opposite of what I used to do.

I am really grateful to UB and his time he spends sharing his knowledge. I just finished reading three of his threads (moisture stress, topping, and garden tweaks. I'll be looking to start some more as my next manic read sessions.

looking for a good read? click my NooB Advice link in sig, yeah it's up to 80 pages but the good stuff goes to like page 40 (after that it's questions & discussion) What we did in the thread was to debunk several myths and tie all the Uncle Ben mantras together with specific instruction (UB helped us with this) it turned out pretty good with several new growers that now are converted to the UB way of growing and all now have healthy plants

Take a look and enjoy

U.B. how would one go about treating for Springtails and other gnat larvae..would neemz oil work?

I doubt it. You could try orange oil or a dose of malathion, the latter being a sure bet.

I know your not an organic guy and dont see no reason to be , but i am thinking it will help me determine ....uh...something. I think i got the organic shit figured out but i am still obsessed with trying to figure out exactly why the promix is not feeding correctly .................geez maybe i am way too obsessed
i just have some that i would like to keep green with the foods i have layin around.
o'well disreguard all that shit , i was just wonderin if that test would tell me anything and if they work.
Thanks man.

You have no guarantee of the accuracy plus you're only getting NPK. Why not send off a sample to your extension service for a complete analysis?

I'm definately into organics. I just don't feed into the green hype about it somehow being superior to "synthetics".

Hey mdestiny, Welcome to the thread. With that said, your gonna have to give a better description of the problem than the one you posted.

At a minimum you need to let the readers know what the parameters of your grow are before anyone can recommend a solution to your problem. Also some pics would help out tremendously.

How old are they?
What medium your using?
Are you feeding?
Etc,etc,etc.

hey UB, as a newbie to this site and a newbie to the problem i have would you be kind enough to take a look at my plants and give me your opinion, i have grown before using the same cuttings, soil and feed and had no problems but this was a few years ago. i have more time on my hands than when i last grew and believe i have overfed / watered them.

i am using a budget 600 hps
6 x white rhino from cuttings in 11ltr pots
plagron bat mix soil
and plagron algae bloom

having read and been very impressed by your posts your opinion / advice would be greatly appreciated

If damage has been done, then, it's been done. Concentrate on new output.

I read your plant moisture stress thread and I have this problem that exactly fits your description. However, you said it could also be a sign of calcium deficiency. Here is a super skunk clone (from a dispensary) that I recently just transplanted into some mushroom compost with perlite. What do you think is the problem here?
I would really appreciate your input. And thank you so much in advance for you taking time to read and see my case.

With such limited info, it's anybody's guess, reason why I wrote the ditty.

If you think you can swing it, your extension service will do a leaf petiole analysis, for a fee. Good luck lol!

what if the leaves are curling/cupping but arent being damaged? sometimes they curl and sometimes they go back to normal... no yellowing or darkening? also im gona finally cut tomorrow when i get to the sixth node! but ya the leaves arent getting damaged they are just curlying a bit on the very outside of the leaf... curling upwards...

maybe is the fan on too hard? ive seen videos of peeps growing with it on much higher though... since hte leaves were rustling back and forth... mine arent...

i might have over watered i dont know... im just gona let it dry out until it looks like it needs water again...

or what do you recomend?
