problem with top leaves

[Redrsxs]

I have a problem with the top leaves of my plants they're in flowering for 1 week now but here's some pic took in different days always the same problem!

They look a tad wilty but nothing that some watering attention shouldn't fix. Make sure they are getting enough water, and not getting drowned.


Is that a homemade ballast? Woot. And potatoes under glasses? WTF?

[dryst]

looks like watering problem to me....

and ya ...what are those?...they look like decomposed pears more so than potatoes :p


edit: weird thing is their only there in the last pic :p

nop it's not potatoes it's clone experience trying to get clones from little cuttings and yeah homemade ballast didn't want to spend 34 bucks for a box paid 16$ CAD for this box and tie-rap are just holding the wire into the box not holding the side of the box...

That rocks. I like to see DIY stuff like that.
Hey if you're practicing cloning on those potato/pear/whatnots you might want to prop the glasses up a few mm on nails or something. Humidity dome good, complete stifling bad.

the picture was not taken the same day that's why lol I'm gonna change my nickname for the decomposed peas grower
but I was thinking my plant are standing on a cold concrete floor can it be my problem ?because I've never had problem with overwatering

[stinkyattic]

BINGO.
Your root zone could be too cold. Cold roots=inefficient ion exchange=not getting nutes up as well as they should. Plus did you know that most problems you will encounter with pH and overwatering are compounded severely by cold dirt?
Get those pots up off the floor a foot or so. You seem handy...

took some bath towel for now and I am always working at construction work-site so I will take some foam and I've put nails

[Redrsxs]

ok guys a little more help the top of my plants are drooping
by the way sorry bad forum!

I've used this emergency measure to save plants that had root damage from overwatering, rot, cold damage...:

Drill holes in the sides of the pots.
Spray the leaves with wilt-pruf. I've also used a light plastic bag over just the leafy part as a humidity dome.
Give a bit of superthrive in the last watering and then let the soil get pretty dry.

This has worked well for me with Christmas cactus. I hope it has some application in this case!

I've checked the temp of my soil and the soil is warm so I think it's not temperature problem but can it be the size of the pot?my plants are 2 feet and a half high and my pot size is 8 inches

[stinkyattic]

That's a good point! I hadn't even noticed that.

Well there ya go. Slip those bad girls into something a little more comfortable, wink wink, nudge nudge, know what I mean....

[Redrsxs]

I think it's that because when I try to poke some holes I can't it seems they have too much roots!
