    whats happening all?
    this girl shows many different problems, yellowing of some leaves...first i thought they werent getting enough light so I added another light(20w to 40w)-it didnt help... the new light may or may have not contributed to the leaves curling up (because heat)... also, some of the leaves curled up like they were "praying" so i think i may need to give it some dolomitic lime. Before I do anything, I was hoping to see if yall had some advice.

    other details: I have been feeding every other watering with weak solution of fish emulsion. (spring water)
    no ph meter, could that be the problem?
    soil mix: 45%perlite, 45%scotts soil, 10% peat

    first shot: leaves curling up (heat issue maybe?)
    second: Yellowing of inner newer growth
    last: yellowing of older leaf
    peace,
    mjm

    most people make the same mistake ... overfertilizing, then adding more nutes to 'fix' a non-existent situation ... you have a wee bit of over-feeding going on there ... I would suggest the Scott's soil is the culprit ... nothing wrong with that soil, BUT, it already contains nitrogen nutes, and you are adding even more with the fish emulsion ... no big deal, just start watering with plain water for a few days ... just add your fish emulsion once or twice a week, and dilute it more ... better to add a weak solution, than a strong one ... no harm done, your plants will be fine, just remember to water real good with plain water for a few days to flush the excess nutes from the soil ... :smokin:

    Heres what she looks like after a good flush. Will the leaves that were burnt with nutrients continue to look like that?
    I don't want to overfeed her cause I'm trying to make her a mom, but she's losing a little color and some of the leaves have died. Is that fine?
