    Major leaf curl, its a mother so need to fix ASAP... Please and thank you

    :hippy:
    My lady's leaves are curling and are dark in certain areas, as well as the newest growth is a light green.

    This MOM is a bagseed that has been growing vigorously.

    She is 2months and ten days old and had been transplanted from jiffy pots to a 10x7.6x7.6 square pot to a 5gal bucket.

    Everything has been going fine about two weeks ago I put her in 36hrs of darkness from 24hrs and went to 12/12 after the darkness to have her show pre-flowers then she had 4 days of flowering then back to Veg.

    Now i have moved my grow to another closet, and had stressed her with a coupled things. She sat in a room a whole night while i worked on the closet and decided to put her back in the next day. Well at night it was about 36 degrees F, and in the morning it was around 50 but the sun was strong (directly at it) so Im thinking that it had stressed out due to temperature changes.

    Well after that happened I decided to add more perlite to its pot so since it was recently transplanted I removed what I thought was going to be the previous root ball, i was surprised to see a bigger root ball formed so i made a 50/50 mix and placed her back in.

    Later that day she got worse so I tried to flush her but the water wasn't going straight down it would over flow. So I removed her out again and saw that the lower soil was dry so I wet the soil and placed her back and placed soil back in as I flushed it.

    She is now back in her room under two 400w MH with a fan blowing at it to make sure it dries up.

    Note: There are drainage holes and where there even through the cold temps. Also I know what i did was stressful but she is a beast and if i can fix this she will be beautiful.

    Please and thank you for the help

    I'd agree that the temps and huge amount of natural sunlight is what killed those big fan leaves. When house plants or seedlings are to go outside they have to get "hardened off" or acclimated to the new surroundings. You'd put them out a few hours in the shade and gradually work up to partial shade for half days, etc.

    You're new growth looks good so I'd say you're good. I'd trim those fan leaves and give them a break from too much more "help". :weedpoke:

    That's what I've been thinking is trimming her up but I need cuttings and don't know if I should take then now or hit her with a rusty bonsai trim???

    The fan leaves are turning black and appear to be burnt but it's spreading bad and don't know if it will ever recover

    Well, 1st of all trim off all dead leaves.

    Then when she recovers u can think about cloning.

    It is not too bad, i think she will pull out of it just fine, just give it a week or so.:thumbsup:

    Well today she looked worse, and I'm not sure if it is a defitiency because 5 other ladies where hit with the same and had the same climate change, hopefully someone else can put some input before I start chopping today.

    Quick fix couldnt edit ^^^

    Also what I used was-

    Distilled water
    Cal-mag
    Gro-tek 5mil
    Gro-tek 2.5mil
    Carbs by advanced nutrients
    Superthrive
    And some PH up

    Thanks for all the help gave some rep, didn't do anything to her today so if anyone has any input I would appreciate it as tomorrow im just going to clone what i can and give it a rusty bonsai basically.

    If getting worse means the dead leaves are still dieing, well, just trim them off and get things back to normal on the new growth. Up 2 U. :wtf:

    Once soil is dry enough, slip the rootball out and check the roots for white growing tips. If they are dark brown or black...damage from the cold has likely been done. (a root trim and re-veg might be advised)

    Do not overstress them with additional nutrients, additives and foliar sprays. That stuff doesn't regenerate neckrotic cells, and will compound your problems.

    Old growth is old news...is there any new growth at all?

    Only bad things happen overnight. Have patience with their recovery. (but keep an eye on 'em)

    everything RT said and most of all....PATIENCE...you may have to back off tryinig to clone and just wait for new growth...recovery takes time and i think she just needs a stable environment....nice and warm! :thumbsup:

    Ok thanks for the reply, I did trim up the roots when I saw that the lower dirt was dry and some of the roots looked shocked from hitting dry dirt so I'm glad I did that now. I haven't done anything to her but remove the worst looking fan leaves and keeping her under the lights as well as have a stable climate.

    I did notice that the new growth seems to look pale and have a nitrogen deficiency but I think that because she went through this stress and had been feed strong nutes she wasn't able to use up the nutes properly because of not having the stable anvironment and especially the correct light.

    Note: I should be able to update my grow log tonight so check it out I will have a few updates.
