More plant problems!

[junkboxer]

ok so i got 2 northern skunks and 1 blueberry. ive been tryin to not water them to much to see if that helps but it looks like things r getting worse. bottom leaves are yellowing. the center of one of my northern skunks is turning a neon bright green and has its leaves curling at the tips. the blueberry looks like its in the best shape outta the 3 but its still yellowing at the bottom as well. what do you guys think? i havent got my fox farm nutrients in the mail yet so 4 to 5 days ago i gave it a little fert i had that was 7-9-5 by dynagrow. havent givin it anythign but water since.

Looks overfertilized.

[junkboxer]

i was guessing either nitrogen defficient or over watered.

[Weedhound]

Actually to me that looks like too much nitrogen, not too little That dark green hue to most of the leaves looks very classic for too much nitrogen. Also your soil looks pretty dry. Is that just that photo that they are? You mentioned overwatered. That makes plants look droopy. Yours look burned. Like overnuted burned. Or maybe not enough water as well but I'm sure it's overfert with that leaf color.

why did you start them in large pots? your soil looks pretty dry would probably water for now and see how they respond, while they are old enough to handle nutes would start them off at a very weak strength.

[junkboxer]

they were ion smaller pots but i put them in these big ones a few days ago. im my experience, constant transplanting as the plants get bigger just stress the plants. ill try watering them again but im just nervous they are allready overwatered

[Weedhound]

Right now they look like they need a drink more than a guy lost in the desert. Also there could be nutes in your soil already which they are taking in....then you poured more nutes in there.....and not enough water. They look fairly fried.

ye i kept them completly dry cause i thought they were over watered but i dont think so. i gave them a nice amount of water today and i wont give nay nutes till those symptoms r gone for a couple days. wen i planted them in small cups i mixed a good amount of blood meal for nitrogen. maybe i put to much and its getting affected by it.

[Weedhound]

That sure seems possible to me. Water only....lots. :)

[junkboxer]

lol alright well i watered it bout 8 hours ago. the lights just came back on so i went into the room to see how they are doing. the lime/greenish yellow colors are spreading. wtf am i doign wrong. its a complete organic soil with like a lot of perlite...nothing else. should i try giving nutes to one of my plants and see if its a nutrient deficiency?

[Weedhound]

i'm not exactly sure what you mean but those dark green leaves in the photos are not the color leaves should be so if these ones are lighter that is a good thing. Without a photo though it's hard to tell. A healthy plant does not have dark dark green leaves.

[junkboxer]

kk well i gave one of my northern skunks a little feeding of Dyna Grow. i guess ill know if its a nitro burn or defeciency by tomarrow. i dont think its under or over watering it because i gave it a nice watering and none of them responded to it.

[Weedhound]

Well good luck....:jointsmile: Let us know....

one product. 50 vitamins and hormones. as i like to call them, magic plant drops.

aka superthrive. get some. use some.

and let them come out of shock. that's a stress stunt sweetie, it's not going to get better unless you stop fucking with it. superthrive, water, and time.

hope that helps,

kp :p

I hereby repeat.....KP YOU GO GIRL!!!!!

hey KP. i ordered fox farms entire line of products and i was going to follow their schedule. ive heard people had great results. the only problem is that it hasent come in the mail yet (never order from BGhydro). anyway do i still need superthrive if i got all that? and finally, do u mean use the nutrients (superthrive) to get the plant out of shock, or use the nutrients when its out of shock? just wanna be sure. thanks.

[bejay]

you should be able to pick up some superthirive at a local store wal mart usually has it its not really a fertilizer more just vitamin and it helps prevent transplant shock and you should look into picking some up.
when you get your nutrients would start feeding them at 1/4 recomended strength to start with, then gradually increase every time you feed, your yellowing problem will probably continue to spread until you start your nutrients and get up to around 3/4 - full strength nutrients, but losing some of the lower leaves is not that big of a deal so wouldnt worry to much about it.

[PlantBoxer]

I always plan to up pot 3 time till I flower. Repotting should never cause stress. Putting to small of a plant in to big of pot, IMHO slows down growth as your root mass isnt developed enough....exactly why I plan to up pot, your building a great rootmass. Great rootmass=great buds!

superthrive's directions state that it's to be used every watering, one drop per gallon.

i've noticed an improvement in growth vigour, and root structure; not to mention the lack of shock...

and two of my mite infested moms came back straightaway with the first application. one hell of a rejuvenator...

keep in mind, st is not a nute. it's to be used IN ADDITION to your normal feeding schedule.

hope that helps...
