Hi Ya'll
Attached are a few photos of my babies. The seeds came from the plant in my profile pic. Supposed to be lowryders? Anyway, Believe it or not these plants are a couple months old. They were originally outdoor plants and were doing great for a week or so then growth stopped. The soil rotted due to poor draining so I have since repotted (last week) and moved them indoors. I have a 100HPS and growlux lumo's They improved a lot and started to smell great since then but are now starting to droop. I wait to water until it is relatively dry 2 inches down. I was using distilled water but have read that is bad? the nutes I have are a 10-10-10, but haven't used anything since repotting as they were seeming to thrive on the nutes in the soil... They are staying alive and getting stinky, but growth is slow, slow slow and now droopy... I don't have anything to measure ph, as my pocketnook is tight tight.. I have put a lot of energy into these and want them to gain back the speed they once had. Also, I still cannot tell the sex...maybe I am not looking hard enough or would it still be too early to tell?? BTW I am a first time grower Obviously...
So any help would be appreciated!!

hi,

im only new myself, but my advice would be to lay off the nutes altogether, and flush the soil( if u havent already)....give them a week or so and see if they recover.
once u flushed them with water, they wont need more for quite a few days, even a week or so looking at the size of them.

i think its just a case of wait and see.

its way way to early to tell sex.

im just a beginner also, tho, so i may be wrong.

thanks.....im just waiting to see at the moment

They look like some seriously stressed plants, I was shocked when I read they were a few months old. Flushing is a good start, but with all the stress they have been through being in a poor medium and suffocated might be probable cause for their lack of growth.


And until they are turned over to flowering they shouldn't show any signs of sex to the naked eye.

yeah I repotted and flushed em....let em dry out good for a couple of days and they look great and back on a growth spurt! I am so glad they have been fighting so well! Thanks so much for everything guys!

The only nutes I ever use in water is superthrive (and i dont always use it), along with a well balanced mixed flowering fert (but only when i transplant into the largest pot, a 5 gal container). From experience when I look at your plants they scream nutrient burn. You are lucky you didnt kill them. I would say water with water only, and if they start to get a little bigger start using a little superthrive. Remember that it is a weed and will grow off only using water.
