leaves yellowing, curling, and some brown tips.

OK here goes. I'm in an odd situation. I'm new and you MUST KNOW the story in order to give advice.

i knew this person who was growing some plants. everyday he scavenged the plants and stole thier bud. every since it started budding. i eventually came into posession of them.

the problem: the leaves are yellowing (mostly at the bottom , but it seems like the rest of one of the plants is becoming more lighter too). some of the bottom leaves are curling, and one plant ( the dankest, althought it looks highly deformed and looks entirley different than a traditional pot plant ( five fingered leaves)) has slighlty brown ends and some brown spot, although this plant has always exhibited these traits.
these are the problems with the smaller plants.

with my other type of plants (two rather large plants) : they (one in particular) seems two have a very slow time producing bud. but they seem much healthier than the smaller ones.


small plants = 6" - 2 ft

larger plants = about 2- 3 1/2 ft


note: i am completely new to growing, they are outdoor plants, in pots, i dont know for sure how much to water them. PLZ HELP, i have grown quite fond of them and i thoroughly enjoy taking care of them.


Im thinking that the problem may be partly from the constant robbing of the bud, which my common sense seems to tell me puts alot of stress on the plants. i have had the plants for about a week now.

can you post pics

the plants thats had all the buds removed is finished her cycle............

she will only produce new budsites if the plant is forced to revert to the vegatative cycle, this will require indoor lites 24/7 and a substantial dose of ferts very high in nitrogen

the other plants are on mother natures time, they will bud when the sense the change in the photoperiod, they length of time the sun is out each day

do you think that a mixture of coffee grounds and water would be a good supplement for nitrogen?

also they wouldnt take all the buds off, just enough fo a bowl or two about every week and a half, but the plant never had enough time to fullly mature, thus a waste because the buds were proly more cbd then thc.

what if i left her outside? would it hurt her?

and how do u tell the difference between over and underwatering?

i doubt i can post pics but im gonna try, especially because my most prized is an odd plant, its really deformed because i think they kept nipping the top leaves for awhile.

it doesnt look like a pot plant at all.

you need to post pics, you say they picked the buds off everyday now you say there are still buds....you dont want to add nitrogen, if its still budding

& im guessing your plant looks all wierd because you put a budding plant outside back into vegetating cycle lite

no no no, sry, there is a miscomunication here. my bad.

they picked bud everyday but they would rotate from plant to plant. so the plants shared the burden.

and i will try to post pics as soon as i can but the parents have the camera and are away but they are coming back today........
