Hey Iā??ve got some seedlings and clones growing in a soil mix I created. (Soil: 2 parts topsoil, 1 part Perlite, 1 part chicken manure) The plants are showing strong signs of nute burn. It has persisted since aug 29th.
One of the pictures attached is the plant on aug 29th and another is a plant yesterday.
If the soil is too strong how can I change it without hurting the plants too much
thanks
Flush flush flush.
You went wrong on the chickenshit. Too hot for seedlings!
Must be composted first, then okay for adult plants.
forgot to mention it was composted but i guess still to hot? should i transplant or would that be more stressful
I flushed aug 29th when i saw the problems i'll flush again today
Some of the seedlings are looking really bad and i fear they will die. I want to change their soil but I think it might be to stressful and kill them.
what should I do
Listen, if you think your plants are at the point of dying, then you have to act. Having put chicken manure was probably a mistake, like the other people posted, because fresh clones do not need so much nutriments if you supply them with adequate soil at the start.
Consider taking the plant and transplanting it in some fresh, moist soil(With no added nutriments or extra compounds). Make slits on the side of the block you will take the plant out to ensure air passage as well as space for new roots to grow.
Be sure to water your plant delicatly and keep it away from heat and don't put too much stress on it and let it recover.
Cheers and best of luck!

What's the temperature in your room? I've seen heat do similar things.
Study the shit out of a good grow book (I recommend "The Bible, By Jorge Cervantes). And plently of TLC. Love your plants and they will love you. I've been growing in a room exactly like yours for 6 grows now, never had a problem yet, and I always get at least a half pound. Usually I get 3/4 pound. All I did was use the advice I gave you. Good luck!!!!!!
Chicken manure is infamous for burning plants, never use that shit. The best thing to get is a basic potting soil with no nutrients added. I would say my favorite soil would have to be Black Gold All Organic, then Black Gold all purpose, and finally whitney farms potting soil. Just get a basic soil and it will be fine to use by itself for the first couple weeks, then slowly start to add nutes. You could also by some compost, NOT manure. Good compost have bat guano, worm castings, lime, and composted organic matter in them. You could mix this with your soil at about a 2:1 or 3:1 ratio. 2 parts soil 1 part compost.
Right now i would pull your plants and wash all soil from the roots then carefully place it in a soil like a i described above.
And after you transplant leave your plants alone and don't touch them, let them recover...
thanks a lot i'll be transplanting tonight
good luck let us know how it goes
Hey I just transplanted my seedlings and I think I am going to leave my clones as they do have new growth.
Take a look at the new pics look at the crazy color difference between the clones. One of them is doing really REALLY well.
The one that is doing well has some yellowing on the edges of leafs does anyone know what this is from. Nute burn? Nute shortage
thanks
That's awesome dude. It seems that they have really recovered. The other plants are still possibly recovering, are you giving them any new nutes now?
Give us more details, and good luck!!
Cheers
Total!
chicken shit caused nute lockout and your clones are beginning to show a magnesium defencey (although yellowing, at the veins they are remaining green)Quote:

mix 1 tablespoon epson salts to a gal of water and foliar feed aswell as a small watering with the mix, if im correct you will see a color difference withn 48 hrs
thanks kinda what we were thinking (altho didn't know it was mg) we used a product called revive wich has magnesium, calcium, iron, and a few other things. It is supposto clear up most defiencies and lower stress. I shall try the foliar feeding aswell.
thanks again
Hey I dont know when i should start them on nutes. All I have given them is Revive wich is for lowering stress. I have given it to them twice; yesterday and a week ago. Should I start them on normal nutes (keep in mind that i just transplanted the seedlings)Quote:
