Browning tips and browning hars?

billabong420 · #1 (**permalink**) 03-04-2006, 09:10 PM

Hey, iv been growing this purple indica x white widow and now that its 2 weeks into flowering the leaf tips are starting to go brown and some of the hairs are like curling up and darkening. it this from root bounding? i transplanted into a way bigger pot so i coverd that. its about a foot high and itrs under 60 watts of flourecent light. i cant afford better lights right now so dont say get better lights. and im going all organic, which means no nutes or anything. Can anyone help me with this one cuz i would actually like to have a first harvest lol.

thanks alot!..

No nutes/fertilizer what so ever? In anycase, sounds to me like underwatering,
cant be heat stress because your only using flours.

Suggest you water it more often, and make sure your water ph is between 6 and 6.5
if using tap water make sure you leave it sit out in the open for at least 24 hrs so that
the chlorine evaporates.

You already repotted it so thats good, i do however suggest you add some sort of nutes
there are alot of organic nutes you can buy such as Schultz plant food that you can add
to your water. If the soil is barren you cant expect the plant to survive only on water.

how much should i water it. I measure by 500 ml water bottle, about the whole thing when the soil is dry. or should i be doing it more or less.?

Water the entire surface of the soil evenly and enough so that water drains out of the bottom.

without pics its a little hard to tell

but if i would have to guess i would say a N deffeciency....

when your plant starts to flower, it uses up all of the plants natural Nitrogen and the leaves start to turn yellow or brown..
you should be fine if this is the case.

but like i said its hard to tell without pics
