repot that plant with perlite/ soil mix
looks like its overwatered.
remove the plants from the pots and smell the dirt.

hiya friendowl, they're already in perlite/soil mix found the problem, apparently it was underwatering but uhm... i'm using second hand soil could this have any significant consequenses?

It could also be under watering..

I'm not sure. . . How much/often do you water?

yeah m8 that was the dilly. i normally stick to a strict watering regiment, because after all it's what they eat right? tonight was a very hot night in my appartment (to be interpreted) and the temp had risen to nearly 31°celsius. Whereas they are normally at a stable 26°c i failed to notice in all my despair lol.

it looks like overwatering ,with underwatering the leaves start to dry out begining at the tips and i dont see that when did this occur morning or night , time, and how long after watering did it occur harvesthetic im on my way setting up a scrog so keep the thread updated as im following wth great intrest and any info you got would be of great help and very pro mate keep it up,and as freind owl said i woul repot with a better draining soil mix best off luck mate i will pray to nebula the god of all mary jane plants and ask her to spread a little love your way ,lol best of luck mate and keep it up

hey scobbie the love arrived homie they made an incredibly fast recovery. you could almost watch the leaves strenghten up. It's because you said that dry tips are signs of underwatering that i was able to fix it. the soil somehow completely dried out in one night, and I watered yesterday also thanks for the info on diseases, real damn helpful. already won the battle against the spider mites cheers!
hail nebula!

I haven't done it yet, but I've read that all growth UNDER the screen should be removed.

You shouldn't remove everything in a 20 minute cutting frenzy... you should day by day, progressively remove all leaves, secondary growth, flowers, etc.. that are located under the screen.

Although the plant will look handicapped, my opinion is: looooong time ago that plant stopped growing like it did in nature... I mean, you're weaving it into a screen. I hope my SCRoG is all clean cut underneath.

Best,

There's quite the debate going on there on other forums huh? trimming all the leaves in a 20 minute chainsaw massacre isn't the way to go, that's clear, but some say that in order to have full nutrient absorption, the maximum is trimming the secondary internodes. but.... hey i'm going scrog, as you say, the plant stopped growing in a natural way (LST, suppercropping, bending, topping, SOG, hydroponics, aeroponics, SCROG, tube-growing, hedgefarming... LOL!) Me thinks our little girls could handle a bit of weaving huh? Check the picture, i've already trimmed some, but i'll be gradually cutting away so I can achieve the effect of Scrog pic i posted earlier.

thx for the input 'ppreciate it was scared there for a minute. as you see the droopage has decreased very fast, and three hours after I posted, they're up again... Better keep monitoring those babies
