Overall pale appearance, dropping leaves.

keep in mind that if you run distilled you need to supplement with calmag+ or molasses.

Holy rootbound batman!!! Thank god you got some breathing room for em now. Who knows how much of the old growth will recover to lush green or not, but anything that's new should look good and healthy:thumbsup:

Take heed in what Shake said, distilled contains ZERO of your micronutrients that are normally found in tap water. Calcium, magnesium, iron, many of these are normally provided to the plants via tap water. Be sure to supplement.

Thanks! Saved me, especially considering that the 2 plants I had outdoors are males. As mother-nature intended I suppose, a 1:1 ratio.

Thought I'd let ya'll know the transplant and the revised watering/feeding did the trick, and not a moment too soon.

They're in early flower now and the tops are growing nicely, the top growth is about the size of a thimble and very dense. The plants themselves look a little beat-up, but the leaves have stopped dropping off. I hope they're up to the task of supporting decent tops. I was hoping for a little more stretch before the flowering kicked in, the screen still has plenty of room.

I couldn't find that "calmag+" anywhere, found some un-sulphured molasses though. Thanks for the heads-up on that!

Oh yeah, I better apologize, too. I guess I breached rules by posting pics on my very first post, apparently that's a no-no. Whoops, shoulda read the rules *before* posting. My bad. I can still log-in, so... Thanks Admins! :thumbsup:

Here is a link to find calmag plus. There are many places to get it online.

Oh, I think pics are always allowed in the plant problems area. Good luck with your grow.

Just thought i would post a lil' follow up. Just about at 6 weeks in flower, the old girls are still pluggin' away.

The pale appearance of the established growth never "greened-up" but the flowers came out looking healthy. The two plants have a slightly different look about them, one has a noticeable deep red/purple look to the tops while the other is more of a blue/green.

I'm gonna declare my "bag-seed shakedown cruise" a limited success. Right now the plan is to finish these up and re-veg so that I might take some cuttings. I need to improve my cloning skills. Came upon Justabozo's DIY bubble-cloner thread and today I'm getting the stuff and whippin' up a cloner. I'd like to see what these girls would look like if they hadn't suffered a near-death experience.

In the meantime, looking at getting some known genetics. Decisions, decisions!!

Here's the requisite "Bud Pron". I tried to get my old camera to focus, but it's a struggle!

Locally there are some issues with the municipal water supply, (we're currently under a "boil-water" restriction), I don't think I'll feed any of this crap to the girls, LOL. I'm going to play it safe and use nothing but distilled water from here on out.

Your cities water won't hurt your plants. Wow thats just nuts.
