possible problem with plants.

[anthony420]

Hey i have just induced flowering on my first female, after the first couple days the tips of the leaves have started to curl downmward. she still looks healthy and has continued to grow. Is this due to some sort of deficiency? I used no fert when putting into flowering. is that my problem? i checked here but couldn't find anything http://boards.cannabis.com/grow-faqs...nutrients.html

thanks in advance

Anthony - a few sections down from this is a section called "plant problems". At the beginning of that section is a sticky called...fuck, here's a link:

Anyway, answer all the questions on that form and then your problem will get diagnosed and a cure prescribed.

Looks potbound, dry, and entering the early stages of micro deficiency-red petioles=needs a bit of Sulfur-and that looks like peat soil, a sure way to screw with your pH.
Flush, check runoff pH. Adjust if necessary. REpot into larger pot with better soil. Feed with bloom fertilizer.
Other than that the plant looks not that bad, an easy fix.

Yes I was going to say that it looks underwatered, or if you are watering again before it is dry, it can look somewhat like that when you over water. I agree with Stinky. Flush with Ph balanced water if you have a PH kit. ( you should). Listen to Stinky, she knows her shit and has NEVER steered me wrong. I learned a lot from her posts when I first started out.
Good luck,
Elway

thanks for the advice

Ph was around 6 1/2. i repotted all plants with nice potting soil and used a 10-15-15 fert for the flowering and a 20-20-20 fert for the seedlings which should be vegging now. I checked Ph again and it was alittle over 5. hopefully this helps. thanks again guys.
