They look over watered. What does your soil drain like? cannabis hates water logged soil, it likes well draining soil. There are soil amendments you can buy to improve drainage/aeration called perlite and another is called vermiculite. You buy it in bags from the garden store. My soil is -
4 parts compost
2 parts vermiculite
1 or 2 parts perlite
thanks for your replys
i am watering them every day in morning with tapped warm water
they are in bags and just everyday soil
i am about to repot them into plastic pots about 1 foot wide and tall
i was going to try putting some plamus stones at the bottom but have to see what you think about that? if not i will buy some perlite as you said!
the dranage seems to be good (unsure) they were about 5 weeks old when i gave them to a friend to re-veg it's been about 5 weeks since i got them bac and i have had them for 4 days maybe 5 days my friend told me i had to repot asap could that be a whats wrong as well as watering? its a bit hard to keep the temp right to as its been realy bad weather here...
thanks for your info love to hear more from yous
Bags have holes in the bottom right? If not then you have NO drainage. And don't water everyday. You're supposed to have a normal pot and water them till the water starts comming out the drain holes then you leave them for till they're dry. Not only dry on top. Dry. You can check if they're in need of water by their weight. Goodluck.
yeah what he said ,let the soil dry n inch or 2 deep before you water(i use 3 gallon pots and i water once a week usely somtimes a couple days longer).you want the roots to go searching deeper for the water.same thing i did when i first started growing
and i couldnt figuer out why they keep dying!!.i think you found your problem,good luck
Man it amazes me how long some people can go between waters...
I have to water every fricking day...now I split the water to 2X @ 3/4 gallon each.
It is just like having fricking kids....gotta deal with them every day for water.
But, I beleive a thorough water and dry, water and dry everyday must be good for them...
hey thanks guys for all your help in directing me to right way
my mate came over to check them out and guess what he thought
i wasnt watering them enough the problem was they needed to be repoted
the roots he showed me were froceing themselfs throw the holes in the bag and because i didnt have a tray under them the were sreving for water so we went and got some 18liter pots and repoted them he used three kinds of soil and mixed them up that was just this morn and i see the difrence that made tonight they are just taking off now
