Ok my plants are in their first week of flowering abd i have one plant that the lower leaves are dying. Not changing colors or anything it is just like drooping and they the die and fall off. Only like 3 have total come off but the others look ok they just droop alot. Is this bad? Could it be bc the lower leaves are not getting light? Or anything to do with nutes. MAybe bc i need to chang pots?
Do you have a pic of them to see? It would make trying to figure out why they are drooping a little easier. Might be not enough light, or to much on the nuts or they are becoming root bound. Are they in soil?
I don't have pics but i think it is do to rootbound. I get money tomrrow and i will re plant them in a huge 5 gallon pot ( in 3 gall right now). Will they be ok till like 3 tomrrow? And will the it hert the plants in the long run?
They should be ok until tomorrow, unless all the leaves are falling off.
Couple questions,
How often are you waterimg? Some say it's best to let the soil to dry out before watering. Might just be over watering, common when using pots and soil.
Have you tried to back off the nutrients for a couple waterings?
Try using distilled water and see how it goes.
If you do repot them make sure you mix perlite into the soil this should allow proper drainage and use care when transplanting. Just a couple ideas to think about. Let me know how it goes. good luck.
I had the same problem with mine when i used soil, so i just switched to a simple hydro set up.
Ok i repotted one plant today. The leaves are still all on it they just look very hopless (drooping and folding). But they are still all one it and are still green. The top of the plant looks normal. I replanted in a 5 gall bucket. how long before i will know if she will make it? and is it ok if a couple of small roots got hert (not to bad just a couple on top came losse)?
you'll know soon enough, just wait on it, could be a few days, could be a week.
What lights are you using?
Would being root bound cause this? I thought if it was root bound, it would only be the rate of growth that's affected.
It had to be rootbound becuase when i put her in a 5 gallon bucket she perked right up and everything is back to normal. well beter, she gained 4 inches in one day after i repoted her. I thought repotting was sussposed to stunt groth for like a week. I am using florescents right now but i am getting a 250 watt HPS next week.
