YELLOW F"ING LEAF'S!!! please help my ladies.

damn i leave for a sec and everyone starts commenting, ha good stuff though, i meaure the salt into a poland spring bottle which is one pint i believe, i use 1/4 tsp of salt for every pint for you reference, don't over do it just a little bit is needed, after a day or so the next time you water give it a good amount so not salts build up aroudn the roots, the size for them is ok for now, like everyone said the bigger the pot the larger the root system can grow which is good, but be careful transplanting not to damage the roots, brig whatever dirt that sticks to the roots into the new pot with then plants, i mean you cna even wait alittle bit longer for that to be done, i never used fish emulsion so i can't really comment on that but the other option that i can think of is to flush them and start fresh with nutes and such. This is done by drenching the pot with pHed water and keep it draining out the bottom until everything runs clear. Then let it dry up a little and start fresh with pHed wtaer and your nitrogen and such. Hopefully some others will chime in here so you can get a little more input from some more experienced growers, let us all know how it works out i'll keep looking in here for your results

I think nothing is wrong with your plant, just give her plain botled ph balanced water on next three waterings. I had the same problem as you do, so im talking from experience and the help i got from alot of good growers around.... maybe these pic's will help

Here is my plant 16 days old ( i have almost all the pic's, so i found this one for you )

You are extremely mis informed. Yes, they shouldnt be that small but no plant in the world can grow to a foot tall in 16 days from seed, no matter how many lumens, watts, even if it was growing ON the sun it wouldnt be that big.

alright grim, since you agree w/ me that it is the fish emulsion i am going to hold off on the transplanting until they are a little bigger, dont want to cause any stress, just want the beauties to grow...
tomorrow after work going to run to hardware store and get some epson salt, and give them some of that ( small amounts )..

i am going to give them double the amount of water that i normally do, which is 2 qts...
it's not going to flush it, but hopefully help to drain some of that fish shit out..
should i use superthrive?
or just plain h2o?

that's the shit i used!!!!

hey LIP do you have any advice for making them grow quicker..?
was reading up on Co2 tablets today, but the only ones that i can find are for aquariums.. you think they may help w/ growth?

alright, so i woke up this morning to come and check on her, and found even more yellow...
now it looks like it's making it's way up to the small center leaf's..
if it continues like this and gets any worse on my lunch break i am going to go and buy some bigger buckets, and have to flush her out and transplant into larger bucket w/ some fresh soil and more perlite..
that's my biggest lady too, dont want to see her go...
the shitty thing though is that i gave ALL my plants that fish emulsion crap.. so they all have potential to turn like her...
on my big girl though i dropped like 2-3 drops of SUPERTHRIVE on the soil right next to the stem... hopefully i didnt mess up, and she likes it.!:o

if anyone else can think of anything that i should do for her, i would greatly appreciate it..
:confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused:

i'm 95% sure i am going to have to flush and transplant though... i can see it getting worse little by little... i'm afraid the nutes may burn up the whole plant..

forgot to put that now the top leaf on my big lady is crimpling up... if u look on the 1st pic on top, she's the one on the bottom... and the leaf that if crimpling up is the top leaf of that plant..
(2 orange toothpicks)

Thats because they need food.
You need to be feeding them with that stuff all the time.
If you don't start feeding it. IT will use the nutrients in itself.

so your saying that i need to be feeding them this stuff...
damnit.. i dont know what to do for them.. they are starting to get real weak, and the leaf's are starting to crimple together..
please help me someone... i need to know what to do.. i've heard so many different things, and why things are wrong w/ them..
tonight i am going to transplant them into some schultz indoor potting soil, and use some of that schultz rooting powder, and flush before transplant..
does anyone think that i should not do this.. can i harm them by doing this?
is there an easier way to care for them right now?

I'm telling you to feed them. It takes more then one feeding to fix a plant.
But don't listen to me. ppl think they know what they are talking about. But some ppl don't. Most ppl here don't. Most ppl here are still learning. But still try to help. But really they are just confusing ppl. Believe me. That plant needs nitrogen!:thumbsup:
