Here's the deal... About a week ago the plant was getting so big, it was about to touch the lights. I tried to "teach" it to grow down... LST? Anyway, the main stem broke in near the top. I ended up putting root hormone on it and am trying to keep it going. It's about 14 inches tall. Looks green and healthy.

Now my question is about the plant it came from. The UPPER leaves are twisting around, away from the light. They are drying up on the edges and have brown spots in between the veins. The veins are still green. Is this a nute problem? I've been reading, and from what I've found, its a Maganese deficiency. Does anyone have any ideas? Plants are in bed right now, can't disturb them now, but will take pictures later.:thumbsup:

you know the deal, fill out the form. you can't be mad because poeple won't throw guess out as how to save your plant.

pH is too high for one. 5.3-5.8 for hydro.

Not mad, just sarcastic. I chopped her down anyway. She was getting too big and the other 2 plants weren't getting enough light and attention. For the best, I think.
