What can you do if you overwatered your plants bad?

Sloppy G · #2 (**permalink**) 10-14-2007, 07:13 PM

stop watering. And dont water again for at least a week, maybe longer, depends on how big your pots are.

You might wanna try draining the soil, but I dont really know how that works

no worries, it will dryout, point a fan on it if moisture is an issue

also you can poke holes in the dirt to help it aerate it with a stick or pencil

poke decent size holes in the bottom of all the bucket's your growing in, put them in the growroom with adequate fan's blowing them all around and seal it off for at least an hour. the temp will rise and the fan's with the heat will suck the moisture right out of her. Repeat closing the growroom off for an hour at a time a couple of time's, it usually works for me. then i just let her recover for about a week with no water and she's fine again reaching for the sky.
