I think I have messed up

[ganjarules106]

Here is an image of my auto flower she is a fruit automatic from dinafem. It's in the 3 week of growth i stated giving a low feeding of veg nutes and the bottom leaves got burnt. P.H. is 5.5 i have flushed to try and bring the burnt leaves back have but don't think the will come back. should i remove the dieing leaves think i have messed up because i know autos don't like stress and stressing them lowers yield. It's my first time growing a auto what do you guys think thanks

With all due respect that doesn't look good at all mate, are you growing in Coco?

 

[slowandsteady]

ph 5.5 to low, ok if in hydro but your in soil 6 to 7 is your range I go 6.8

 

[Psychosis93]

slow and steady's right^, too low ph for soil mix.

 

[greenlikemoney]

Yep ^^^^^^^^ why did you think your pH needed to be 5.5?

I was recently watching some greenhouse seeds growHD videos and they water with 5.5. I recently lowered my ph to see if the ladies enjoy it. As for the yellowing, I wouldn't worry. Most of mine reacted the same to the nutes as your did but continue to grow very well.

No I'm growing in soil a perlite mix and yes thank you the same reason why gdingy is doing the same by watching grow vidos i have always used5.5 for in veg and then i flush and bump it up to 6.2 in flower thanks for the advice any way guys.

im using straight tap water left sat for 24hours with bio silicon, just so you have an idea of what my auto is using.

-Don't remove the leaves, would probably be better to leave the leaf until it's dead this early in.

 

[ganjarules106]

yes yours image look similer to mine gdingy only my leaves have not shriveled up yet.

Um its fcked pull it out try again autos not hard to grow if u follow simple rules
1 use soil wih perlite soil with very low nuts in it
2 start the auto in the biggest pot u have from the beginning
3 when it pop water very little for first week maybe once let it get nice and dry so plant digs roots deep
4 dont use nuts on em till week 3 or 4 and then feed at about 1/8 u would for a photo
5 dont trimm
6 give as much light as u can till flowering starts then 18/6

any links to the article that says to water in soil with a PH of 5.5 ?
thats insane they must be growing with AN ph perfect or something
i like ph around 6.8 and im in a mostly coco mix

 

[tekdc911]

and BTW both of the plants that have been watered with the 5.5 water are showing the leaves of a plant being grown in a too acidic soil
thats not nute burn its a ph burn

signs PH is off
unexplained burns on a plant you are not feeding aggressively
unexplained def on plants you know are getting properly fed
leaves twisted stunted or that appear mutant


or
plant croaks

I would run autos on 18/6 from the get go, that's just my opinion. Always nice to be able to flower an auto in the veg tent with the photoperiod plants. WINNING !!!!!!

Well Weedenhenced for you information that's what I have done low feed week 3 with big ass pot don't water until dry she is out side in the sun all day and she is in perlite and soil mix with little if any nutes in it. I did some research before i stated growing it but thanks for the info any way. My bad i watched the video again and it's p.h. between 5.6-5.8 in veg here is the video

this is for photoperiod flowering cannabis plant's not autos
