  2. Assuming this clone was healthy when you got it, the best place to start is your water. Make sure the ph is corrected to about 6.5-6.8. Ocean Forest is a good soil and Ive never had any issues with it but some have said it can be too hot for plants under a month old, but like I said Ive cloned with it and was cool. If it is just a couple of leaves doing this it may just be one of those things that the plant will outgrow and it may not affect the growth. Transplanting clones from a dispensary can be a stressful event for the clone, especially if that dispensary doesnt know wtf theyre doing. Try to keep it in optimal conditions and with good balanced water that clone should be okay. You can only do so much, some times they die and all we can do is try again.

    yeah some say that the soil was too hot but i used this soil on my outdoor grow last year from seed and it was awesome, but now i dont know whats goin on, i do got a PH adjuster an i make sure my ph is around 6.3-6.5ish and its not happening to the new growth or side branches only the single leaf's but i dont want this to continue upward thru the whole plant you know? 
     
    also should i place a heating pad??
     
  4. What's your night-time temps?
     
  5. to be honest dude idk, i got the window cracked open all night idk if i should close it at night and open it thru the day? i need to get a temp gauge thing
     
  6. From what I've heard some plants can turn purple if they get too cold, that's why I asked
     
  7. ohh i see, yeah the leafs are not purple but i do know what you mean
     
  8. Gotcha alright, just bad eyesight on my part then lol
     
  9. lol its all good man, id still like to get a few more tips/advice if anyone is willing to im open id really like to know whats going on here, thanks again!
     
  10. I use the same soil only I mix light warrior in 50/50 and never have to mess with the ph, I use regular tap water that's left open for a few days so the chlorine evaporates but that's it. Maybe just try regular water for a little. Also I just read your comment about it only happening to fan leaves, if its only happening on the bottom leaves (and not too many) it should be finebecause that will happen naturally

    yeah it only happened to like 3-4 leafs i cut off the ones that where affected by it, too see if it continues upward which i hope it dont, it could be the soil having too many nutes i am going to start giving it Ph'd water thats a givin, till then if anyone wants to give there opinions im still ok with that, thanks again!!  
     
  12. If you aren't giving it any extra nutes than theres no way that soil has too many nutrients in it, besides if it did, nute burn looks a lot different. I think your problem might be phosphorus deficiency, it looks pretty similar to what you have. If it keeps happening then phosphorus might be getting locked out of your plant
     
  13. so then i should start to feed her if thats the case?
     
  14. I mean you can, but that soil should have everything your plant needs. Ill show you my plants that are in foxfarm light warrior/ocean forest that I only give regular water. I never even check the ph.
    I'll post a picture in a minute

  16. well yeah fox farms ocean forest feeds a plant up to a month but then you need to give nute after, i know about this cause i used fox farms on my outdoor crop after a month n half of just water no nutes i started getting nitrogen issues so that was telling me i needed to feed once i did it went away, but my issue now is much more different 
     
  17. Just found this on one of mine, does that look like yours?

  18. kinda of just like that dude, but the tips are much darker green color also curls downward and also starts from the sides of the leaf too but more or less like that yes. im not seeing it on any other leafs as i cut off the ones that had it so.
     
  19. Yeah that's weird, I'm sure it will be fine though just watch it
     
  20. Heres a phosphorus def. pic from the plant abuse chart, looks very similar to that pic of yours. I think the dude up there was right on the money. Good looking out Grow Trees :cool:
