this is only my second grow, im still learning. my first was a disaster, i was 8 weeks into flowering a WW under 2x150 hps and i gave way to many nutes, when i woke up the next morning it was all yellow and crispy like i fried them, they were brittle. all the weed tasted like poison so all the work and time was wasted, here's a pic of when i was at like 5-6 weeks in. i never want to suffer like that again. lol ill take your advice.

ya man, thats a flush... it gets rid of all particals left over (salts or whatever the fuck)..as long as you got decent drainage and let it dry out good, you straight
alright ill trythat. now that you mentioned parasites i just remembered that when i transplanted it from cup to pot there was what looked like white mold spots on the soil, so a good flush might actually do it well. thanks..........do you know what it could of been?

molld add a very little bleach to the first flush water to kill any mold in soil then finish flushing. ie flush one pot volume with bleech water then 2 more with out.

and for the heat ide try to stay between 74-79 with out c02 the plant will grow way better, anything below 70 or above 90 is going to stop growth 76 is the best with out co2, dont kill me guys this is what i have found to work best and read about. to each his own

perhaps check your watering regime looks like it might of had a touch too much too often i.e short, dark leaves and no internodal space. i only water my seedlings every second day sometimes third day, just my 2 cents.

To be honest I've never seen this happen to a potplant before. It has to have something to do with the soil your growing it in.

i found mold or something in the soil when i transplanted from cup to pot, i used new soil by the way. i will flush with bleach like withoutachance suggested, hopefully that will help a little. the lights are off now as soon as the turn on i will drown her, i hope she doesn't die. ill post pictures of her in a few days with some good results im hoping... so far im amazed at the speed it is growing, the 4th nobe is popping up and its only been about 10 days.

alright so its only been two days and my plant is looking much better. i flushed it as recommended by withoutachance and i added a little bit of bleach to the first rinsing for the mold issue, it did the trick. most of the leaves have straitened out and the new foliage is looking pretty normal. i have a few pictures of my plant to show you guys. im coming up to the two week marker it seems as if she grows by the hour, i have a couple questions. i took a couple pictures of leaves that did not do to well. what should i do, should i cut them or just leave them? also i see a bunch of fruit flies around my plant, im thinking there from all the moisture from flushing the plant. should i be worried about them or its nothing? im going to post new pictures and update my grow on this page, so if your interested in seeing what happens just keep an eye out for me. thanks for the help guys.
