    Half my garden is dying!!! Not sure what to do...

    It was all beautiful and green a few days ago but i came down with the flu and now my garden is in bad bad shape and I'm a rookie. I just repotted the two biggest ones about a week ago. The leaves started curling two days ago so I thought boron def. and since then I've been in bed and other plants started going south. The symptoms look different to me making me think not enough fertilizer, but some look almost over-nuted. Maybe pests? I flushed them with about a gallon of water each earlier. I have no clue whats going on and I'm still pretty out of it. Someone please tell me what to do.

    4 parts topsoil, 1 part peat moss, 1 part vermiculite, 1 part perlite. "Grow More 20/20/20" 1/4 tsp. per gallon of water. ph is good. Drainage is good. They stay outside and receive plenty of light, they were happy before... I don't know what happened. There are still green leaves so I think some might pull through if I take action soon enough.

    Did the soil get dried out while you were sick? The little ones look good and I think one of the big ones might come back but the other two.....!

    I think you A. Over Watered. and let dry too much.
    Or B. Bad Nute Burn. or C. Too much Heat
    Your grow is screwed brotha. You might as well rap this one up, keep the plants that actually have green. FLush the pots, with tap water. then give a ph of 6.0 water with Light nutrients. Good Luck Next time

    Did you add lime to your mix?
    Is the pH you checked the pH of the water, or the runoff?
    No lime + peat = dead plants - peat is acidic, and comes in around pH5

    Half my garden is dying!!! Not sure what to do...

    Thanks for all the replies. I ended up in the hospital for the week so I came home to some dead plants... but the world is still turning.

    My ph run off is 7, soil ph is 7. It has been hot out here lately and I haven't been able to take care of my babies like I usually do.

    How much lime should I use, and should I mix it with the water. I have been using sulfur for the past few weeks to slowly lower the ph of the soil also.

    I would just back off the nutes for 2 weeks and just give them water. Get them healthy again and then start back up with the nutes.
