Im loosing her, please help

[Bobyvila]

Are you refering to the color-coded results, or is your tap water brownish out of the tap...? :wtf:

Both ph numbers are low, but still in range. I'd go with the tap water though. Cheaper and easier.

Good luck. :thumbsup:

I was refering to the tap actually, thank god for my britta! I flushed them out took about 3 hours got more than 2 gal through. I have a cup of the first runoff and am waiting for the PH pen to get a result. I did however do some testing with my new toy.

Tap PH: 6.5-6.6
Poand spring PH: 6.1-6.2


I also checked the PH of the water that I use between feedings and its PH is right above the poland springs at 6.2-6.3. I checked twice to make sure. So my ingoing waters PH is 6.2-6.3 and thats only what the plants get other than the two flushes i did.

Here is a picture from today

Let the soil dry-out before doing anything else to her.

Tapwater ph is likely fine. Have you tried using it without running it through the Britta? No need to change things on this plant, but it would be worth a try on one still in the growth phase. Nothing worse than having to purchase and transport water or filters when it's almost free out of the tap. The bottled water ph is pretty low, and might be contributing to the claw effect on your lower leaves. Especially if the medium is losing it's buffering, (the buffers fade over time) or if soil ph was low to begin with.

No the britta is for personal use. I never thought about using it for the plants, way to much work. The soil is still very moist and the humidity is steady at 40. I think its going to be at least two more days before any thought of watering. She is still yellowing from the bottom up but the new growth is nice and green. Im sure shes still in shock from the transplant. No sign of the Ph pen either. I have included todays picture and one from a few weeks ago, right when I should have joind here. Thanks for the help again.

Ok so I have some timelines I was able to figure out. I went through my notes and this is what i have. The pants began yellowing two months after using MG 3 month formula, or around the 15th day of 12/12. So with the high consumption of nutrients from the plant, and the low level of feed (only two to three "half" feedings.) She began starving. Ide have to say that around the 15th day of flowering she began giving signs of a lack of nutrition but I had not noticed. I assumed it was a PH issue. Today is 44 days of 12/12. Ill get the milk/amber % out ASAP. I still have fairly moist soil, so no need for watering anytime soon. Thats 5 days since the flushing. She is still yellowing from the bottom up slowly, but the new growth is green and heathy. There are some back spots on the yellow leaves but I think thats from them drying/dying. I took PH leves of the soil yesterday and it was a drastic 7.3... Im going to try the soil PH tester again hopefuly it lowers. Ill post the results.
In the meen time enjoy the pics.
The first three are of my most stressed baby, and the last picture is of her room mate.

nice grow, can't wait to see how much you get in dry weight.

[Bobyvila]

The trichomes regretably are only 40% white 60% clear. Im going to give her 24 hours of dark tonight and then cut her down. Ive been hoping the stress didnt get to her, but the swap allong with a PH of 7.3 and it looks llike she wont mak it much farther. I checked the trichromes of my other two plants and there at the same percentage. Those two however have another week before I have to cut her down so I hope I can get her to some ammount of amber.

This is todays picture, dont mind the cheezy phone text on it.

Did you give this plant any ferts? If so im sure thats why it looks burnt. MG has the 3 months feeding in it so adding anything, but maybe molasses will burn it up. When using pre loaded soil, never put anything in it but water through out the grow, you will not need it, just burn your plant up.
