i dont know what the problem is...... please give me feed back but i think it might be over watering

What is your feeding & watering schedule?

i havent started feeding it cause i just transfered into those pots with just standard miracle grow potting soil...i figured theres enough nutes in there for right now...i think i may of overwatered cause i was watering every other day but i think i put to much water....the soil didnt have time to actually dry out

let the soil dry for a couple days & pick up the pot & feel how it weighs dry. When you water your girls you will notice the diffrence in weight. So the next time you need to water, pick up the pot & feel the weight & that will let you know if it needs waters. Thats my rule of thumb for watering in soil.

let them dry out and check you soil ph...looks like a combo of ph and overwatering

thanks guys ive been letting the soil dry out....i just loosened up the dirt on top so air could get through instead of it being compacted down and it started dry out....the girls are already starting to perk back up a little.....But as far as Ph goes, i need to get a tester... can u get one at a local store like wal mart or somethin...

depending how much you wanna spend just go to a decent hardware store,or do it the easy way and get it online.

... they'll charge ya something like eight to twelve bux for a cheapie test kit that comes with a bottle of reagent and a little thingy to measure your water in. You fill it to the recommended level, and then put two or three drops of reagent in, and then check the colour against a colour chart (usually on the label). As long as you keep the ingoing ph at what it is supposed to be, everything should be fine.

stra8 and BL are of course right aaaaawwwwn, as usual :)

Just my :twocents:
