  2. Odds are that's Chemburn.... You shouldn't give a plant that small nutrients. Also, what kind of soil are you using?
     
  3. Your soil should have had enough nutes to last it on its first weeks of life.

    What type of soil are you using?
    Watering schedule?

    This info can help others help you.
     
  4. that thing is TOAST!

    Normally if you are using good soil.....you shouldnt have to nute for a month
     
  5. Those things look pretty bad, they are probably goners and you won't be able to recover them once they are they that bad.

    They look like they could have been either underwaterd or overwatered which caused them to start to wilt and then dry up and get burned up. Your temps could also be too high which could cause them to die too.
     
  6. only 1 is like that been trying to revive it no luck
    soil that im using is ecogrow
    watering schedule one day yes one day no a bit of water everytime i water
     
  7. and yeah its very hot where i live 80s-100 i dont give them direct sunlight i have them behind a thing that supposably blocks out like 15degrees of the sun

    This is probably the right answer. I seen you're growing clones so they can handle nutrients, but if you overdid it, then could be bad nute burn.

    I've gone up to 1000ppm on new clones before, and when I tested the runoff it was 1200!!? So the dispensary was feeding at least 1300 ppms which is a lot and they were just in rapid rooters. They looked perfect too, no burns.

    When you water you need to soak all the soil, then just let it dry out for a few days. It could take 2-10 days or more it all depends on lighting, temps, size of plants/roots. Just lift the pots and if they feel somewhat light, but a bit heavier than when you first put the soil in with no water, then water.
    Also, you should water if your leaves start wilting and it's been a bit since you've watered.
     
  9. Another post, but first was too long

    Spray it with some water and it could be revived, who knows just try it out.

    I forgot to water this tahoe og:

  10. Theres maybe a couple of months left for the outdoor grow season here in Cali.
     
  11. yeah when i bought them they looked so pretty and healthy and now they're dying and stuff and they seem to not be growing at all , i will not give them anymore nutes just water
     


  12. Those ones are looking pretty sad, if they do recover its gonna take quite a while. Even in a greenhouse its pretty much to late for outdoors for plants that small this time of the year. They would probably never finish in time if they made it to flowering. In California you can get two outdoor grow seasons a year if you time it right. Start them indoors and put them into flowering then after the last frost of the year around the third month or so put them outside to finish. Then in about a month or less start your outdoor summer grow.
     
  13. It probably wasn't over-nuting them unless you gave them over 1500 ppm or something. I give my rooted clones nutrients between 950 and 1200ppm, and they do fine.

    If it was underwatering then you might be able to save a clone by watering it, then misting it and putting it under a humidity dome for a day, but if it was over-watering then it is almost impossible to recover small plants. Once they're too wet, then you have to wait for it to dry out again and they plant usually withers and dies in the meantime.
