I haven't done anything out of the ordinary when it comes to wattering and I haven't fed the plant for the last 3 weeks up until earlyer today I gave her some food and kelp along with some worm tea
-
I read that that could happen and so the day after spraying the neem and seeing my poor plant in that state I tried rinsing it off but its just strange to me that all the other plants that allso got neem is fine
-
I sprayed it during the day but I think your right because this is my only sativa girl its actually a fruity pebbles bag seed from some exceptionally good but from 6years ago that I found in my friends seed collection
-
II have now transplanted all my autos into my greenhouse and they are looking happy so far but I've run into another problem now with one of my other plantsthe leaves started curling up and even twisting this plant was healthy and no sines of any stress the only thing that it could be is neem oil on it because I had problems with red spider mite and white fly that I was fighting off with eco buzz best pro but it didn't seem to help for the mite so I got my self some "bioneem"from biogrow and I sprayed that on but all my other plants seem to be fine only this one looking like this

Tnx allot for all the support and tips I will definitely try that thing with the watter and I actually have my own worm bin with a tap at the bottom for worm tea will that work as a feed? I am allso growing my own moringa because I want to try this thing where I feed my worms with moringa leaf powder since its the most nutrient dense thing out there and then inturn get some extremely nutrient dense worm casting and worm tea. I read somewhere that moringa leaf power works so well as fertilizer you can use it as a kelp replacement if you want to The other day I visited this place in a forest where we go sometimes to have some fun and I found this place with huge oak trees and under it a very thick canopy of leaves and under those leaves I found this pitch black soil that looks soooo good and so I had to come back and collect a few dog food baggs full of that good stuff so maybe I can use that as a top dressing?? Maybe ill test it first on some other plants

Oh and Im planning on very very carefully reporting them into my greenhouse where I have holes in the ground prepared with a 1coco/1compost/1perlite soil mix I am just germinating and growing them inside until they are strong enough to move outside and I will repot them as soon as there roots are well enough established when I repot I do it in such a way that the plants don't even realise something changed no disturbance of the roots

Waw okay luckily I haven't used the ph down and I had a feeling I can't trust that pH metre so I didn't do anything to bring the ph down as for the watering I will do as you say I can start feeding the plants now with this fertilizer I have but how can you tell there hungry? And to answer your question about why autos I have bin growing on and off for like 6 years photoperiod outdoor but I didn't realy have any help or knowledge it was basically all trial and error and now I have registered to become a grower for this company called grow one Africa and im trying to generate a small yet constant income for myself using autos instead of getting one big yield per year but yea I'm not growing just to get paid I have areal passion for cultivating the plant and I l love the idea of organic and natural farming and micro organisms
-
As for the ph according to this ph meter of mine the ph is way off and I have this ph down stuff but I have zero experience in adjusting pH

hey tnx for the reply So this is my first time growing autos and I have found what you say to be true they are so sensitive to any kind of stress its allso my first time really using lights they are just normal flode lights not grow light but the setup is just for germination and im planing on moving them outside and for soil I make n mix of 1part coco plus 1part compost and usually I add 1part perlite but i was out this time round and then I put a layer of pure cocoa on top as a mulch and for fertilizer I use organic but I haven't used anything on these babies yet except some small amount of kelpak as for the water I have a filter system that filters out the chlorine and fluoride out of the municipal water that I use and I don't have a specific rhythm of when I watter I just watter based on how dry or wet the soil looks and feels and then once per week I give a big amount of water but I think that once per week big watering is too much so im going to stop with that. I moved the lights up yesterday and they are already looking less droopy and slightly happier
-
Could this plant be suffering from light burn? I have 2 200w 1600L Normal led lights that were about 28cm away from the plants and I couldn't figure out why they are drooping because I don't think they are getting to much or little water and ive never dealt with light burn as this is the first time im using lights that are this strong for germination
-
I did put then under a tiny shade cloth greenhouse in the mean time here are some pictures
