argh!

I'm growing a single plant for practice and something is pissing me off pretty badly. I just wanna bitch slap someone... My leaves keep curling up and drying up. The plant itself isn't growing... not even any new leaves... FUCK! :mad:

The bottom part of the stem is red and there isn't any yellowing in the plant. I thought it was magnesium deficiency but then I added some bath salts to water which I watered the plants with. I've changed the plant into different soils twice. First it was that kind of soil you buy at the store and then it was backyard soil with wood-chips, rocks, sand & compost. The lil fucker isn't even growing any leaves. And I water it plenty, it just got good rain too...

You need to remember, these are weeds.

When you phuck with them too much, they become impotent and cease to grow and die.

Too much water, too little water, too much transplanting...who knows.

Stick them in dirt, water with 6.8 pH water when almost dry, give good light, temps and leave them alone.

It's the easiest plant on earth to grow when you keep it simple.

The problem might be that there are no nutrients or more likely not enough in the soils you have used to sustain the plant. You should go to your hydro store and buy some nutes and begin to feed and see what happens. Remember water delivers the nutrients already in the soil to the plants roots.

no, it is likely already over-fed, and not a good idea to feed before/after transplants, either ... sounds like his plant needs to recover from all that 'love' ... if anything, he needs to do as hardon suggested, water it, and leave it alone for awhile ... :smokin:

thanks 4 the advice folks... I'll leave it alone I guess... I grow it outdoors so yeah
