my plant is drooping and the leaves are yellowing

This is the first time i have tryed to grow and i am learning the hard way i have recently repotted my plant and firtilised it it is under a 250w SON light and 12hour cycle and the leaves are going yellow and brown and they are also starting to droop. I have read i may have over fertilised it so i have flushed it with water my PH is 7.3 is this ok???? there are some pics please will you help me i have wanted to grow for ages and this is the first time i have had the chance so i want it to work..

Flush with a PH of 6 on soil and a PH of 5.6/5.8 on hydro. try not giving it any more water, cause overwatering is the most common problem of droopy leaves.

Pale yellow leaves that are turning downward and plant drooping? Hmmmm....
Most likely you have watered to much. But when you flush a plant in order to leach the soil completely, sometimes they do not want to perk up fast. This induces stress on the plant which is not good. Also, it seems that you may have over fertilized which is why u flushed it in the first place. Cut back on the water and let that plant try and come back. Maybe even go back to veg. Because you don't want to start to flower that if it is in that poor condition.

thanks i will try that what do i use as an acid ???

...............

phosforic acid

Use white vinager as a pH down...bout 1 tspn per gallon or two.

test it.

I wouldnt flush either.

I would stop fucking with it and water it when dry only. Give it a chance to heal. No way is it ready to flower either.

Use phosforic acid, it contribures too flowering a bit (you know, phosfor?!)

And yes this plant IS ready to flower. in the past I put 2 week old plants in flowering and it just worked out fine without any problems. It's not natural, but possible.... yes!

In human biology phosphoric acid lowers ph of the body. Are natural ph adjuster used in are bodies is Ca (calcium). I have tested the ph of coke before and the reading was 2.5. If to much phosphoric acid is taken calcium is drawn out of the bones in order to compensate for the lowered ph. It can lead to ostioperosis, more so in women. As far as plants go most fertilizer ions will lower ph although P takes the cake. I do not know why anyone would need to lower the ph of a fertilizer with a acid. Phosphorus is stored in the plants biochemistry easier then N or K and to ad more with out knowing what it is doing to your numbers can be harmfull in ways such as lockup. I am not saying do not use, just be aware it may cause P lockup and lower the ph more then may be needed. The higher the hydrogen consentration the lower the ph in the chemistry world. If one needs to adjust the ph down I would recommend citric acid but in most cases ph does not need to be brought down with anything except usable ions.

that is one fucking sad PLANT...
jesus f-ing crimeny....

i didn't even readthe thread.. but I say...


Transplant
get the light way closer

always make sure you PH your water...
PHing water is a fundemental skill that any succesful grower has mastery over!!!

i love you
