have you been ferting them? are theyt in veg or flowering stage?? we need more info..could be hydrogen, h20, lackin i dunno
holdeezbuds, It could be that your plants are drying out too much in the pots between waterings or could be root-bound. I would recommend that you put them in the ground. Be sure to condition your soil with mulch or composted manure and be sure to water after planting. If you can post a pic it would help to better diagnose your problem. Good luck. I.B.Token
they are in veg stage.... they have enough water....also i have found small nat like bugs and little red spider mites...and was wondering how i can eliminate this problem please help
yo hold i know how to helpl your problem. i was havin the same problem with bugs and i made a homeade pesticide and it did wonders. here are the ingeridents. 1. Rubbing alcohol like half of a 20 oz bottle 2. a little bit of liquid soap 3. crushed red pepper 4. Bleach REMEMBER DONT SPRAY ON THE PLANT! sprikle the mix like 8-10 inches around the out side of each plant and use the whole 20 oz bottle for each plant. it worked for me
Here's an article on how to make homemade insect spray and should help solve your bug problem. The USDA recommends mixing together dishwashing detergent and cooking oil to get a powerful control for aphids, whiteflies and red spider mites. First, make a concentrate by adding one tablespoon of liquid dishwashing soap--the brand doesn't matter--with one cup of vegetable oil. When you're ready to spray, add one or two teaspoons of the oil-and-soap solution to a cup of water. Pour that into a sprayer and shake well. Please note: Vegetable oil can burn plants, especially cabbages, cauliflower and squash, and the hotter the weather, the more it can burn. As with all these homemade sprays, test a leaf or two of the plant you intend to spray, then wait a day and check the leaves for damage before you spray the entire plant. Also remember the rule of 140: first, watch the evening's weather report. Add the outdoor temperature (in degrees F) to the percent relative humidity. If the total is more than 140, wait for a cooler or less humid day to spray. Another homemade pest control uses plain old isopropyl or rubbing alcohol. A cotton ball soaked in this and wiped over leaf surfaces will kill a number of bugs such as aphids, mealybugs, red spider mites, scales and whiteflies that are notorious for attacking houseplants. To spray an entire plant, add one cup of the alcohol to one quart of water, and spray away. Hope this helps. I.B.Token
