Wilting Leaves Help!

[NiceNEasy]

Growing for the first 1st time, and everything going well, but some of the leaves on the bottom of the plant were starting to turn yellow. At the start they looked a little burnt. There are more leaves turning yellow now at the bottom, and are about 1/3 of the way up. Might be normal, but probably not - I took a pic with my crappy camera phone. Not very good, but might be enough for a look. Any ideas?

Cheers.

This is near the same bit a few weeks earlier.

[NiceNEasy]

This is the full plant at Day 32 (about a week ago). You can see the wilting leaves at the bottom here as well.

PS. This was bag seed. Does anyone know what plant it is?

[JohnnyPotGrower]

I know what plant it is...


Its called Cannabis dude.

[mellow mood]

looks mostly indica, but u cant tell the strain by a look. bottom leaves turning yellow is normal. as long as its the oldest leaves. your plant looks great man continue the good work

[NiceNEasy]

Thanks Mellow Mood. Good to put the mind at rest.

[HARDDON]

I agree with mellow. Looks normal and healthy.

I learned the bottom leaves can go bad for many reasons....most often though it because the lower leaves can be in the dirt or touching the dirt. They don't like that.

Also, when watering perhaps some water and nutes are being splashed onto the lower leaves and thats another thing they dont like.

The spotting however would have me concerned, but perhaps its over if its a couple of weeks old.

how long has this plant been flowering???

[NiceNEasy]

Going on 16 days now. Lack of space means I have to go really early.

[HARDDON]

can you tell me, how old is the plant?

since it broke soil?

Thanks

[major crisis]

geeez, the lights can really speed up the growing. my plansta re 4 weeks old and they are so so young.

good luck :)

Today would have been day 39, but I've now completely killed the plant. Went into it today and all was drooping. All the heads have drooped over & the leaves have fallen. My heart just sank when I seen it.

[PartypokerPlayer]

i bet. i would be soooooo pissed....to the devoted grower it takes time...space.....money....hard work....and lots of reading and researching...so if you have done all these things to learn the proper way ya id be pissed to.....what size pot is that thing in ? ? ? maybe rootbound just a thought....my NL plant looked great...perky ...standing stright up absorbing the light...and looked great...24 hrs later it looked like it was gonna croak....its still a bit droopy but it had gone rootbound...

[justinsane]

only one thing to do now, pick the leaves and sell them to some noob.. haha, jk. sorry about the plant. but in my opinion. the plant had a disease and the first sign was what everyone dismissed as normal

[BobBong]

I'll bet you anything, that plant is rootbound to hell. you say 40 days? how large is that pot? The wilting leaves looked like lack of light and they're the lower leaves so really the wilting did not cause the overall death.
you say it was really dry, but you didn't know why... try watering it?

idealy you need a 5 gallon pot for a marijuana plant. that pot looks far to small for the size/age of your plant.

the leaves looked like they were heat burned. I currently have a GSUS baby that recently got burnt on the bottom leaves. It shouldn't spread unless u allow the heat to stay at the same temp. I just sprayed the leaves with water and changed conditions and they are recovering a bit. Gonna look sickly but soon u won't even be able to see those leaves.

[sugarmagnolia]

whoah shit i just saw the new pic.

give us ur grow info. temp? lgith? water?

[NiceNEasy]

Ok, seems I've got things under control again (fingers crossed). Here's a new pic after the disaster. Looks like a watering problem. Gonna have to keep on top of that. I still don't remember missing a watering, but then a stoner is as a stoner does.

The top bud is still a little wilted, but the rest of the plant seems to have recovered well. Wiping sweat off the brow.

[HARDDON]

MOTHER FUCKER!

I did the EXACT SAME GOTDAMNED THING TODAY.

I knew my plants were gonna need some water today. But I figured I would do as I should and water them during their morning cycle, which is my bed cycle.

Anyhow, I laid down, stoned, and fell asleep. Well 5 hours later, my wife awakens me. First thing I do is think about the whore cunt and slut and all the other little bitches i got growing...

So i open the fucking closet and nearly faLL OVER in shock. My cunt and whore are totally wiped out. Looked like someone put them in the oven.

For those of us using a real lite mix, like my PRO-MIX, its almost impossible to over water but oh so possible to underwater.

THey have recovered, so far, and all looks almost normal. I just hope I havent stressed them into maleness.

happy growing

[NiceNEasy]

I know, really sucks don't it. Hope your's comes around man. Space and pot size are a real issue as well here, but there's little I can do about it due to the size of my grow space. BobBong hit it on the money I think, but I can only hope.

I will start a thread no matter what way it goes, and show the start to hopeful finish. This is more of an experiment, than anything else. If this one goes well, maybe I can talk my girl into giving up a little more room in our already tight conditions.
