My plant is at its first week of flowering.

Ive just translated it, and flushed the soil (had nutrients lockout) making it ready for flowering. 5 days ago.

I feel like the leafs are turning, might already turnt light green ish. Very comparable to a lime.

it could be that the flushing overwatered


The plant is sleeping now, didn’t want to snap any photos with blitz to wake her up. But I’ll post sum photos when its up.
But for now, do somebody know why my plant don’t got that dark green look on their leafs.

greetings Happy Grow :joint:

It can be completely normal coloring.

It can also be an issue. We really need pictures and more info on your grow to help you assess what's going on.

Is it Okey if I snap 2 photos quick while it’s sleeping?
Or will that stress the plant to much. Because the leafs are really droopy, it’s sleeping heavy.

I wouldn't.

Let's just wait for lights on and assess. No need to stress it for a pic that won't likely change anything tonight.

Its not like your gonna jump in there and begin a treatment in lights off.

But thats my personal style of not messing with things that don't need to be messed with lol

I'm almost certian that's overwatered. But its hard to tell during lights off because plants droop when going to sleep.

So still gonna need that morning shot lol.

How often do you water?

Also the color doesn't look very off at all tbh.

How old are they and what nutrients have you give?

What soil are they in?

They didn’t look droopy at all before 30 min after the lights went off. I’ll post some more photos when they’re up.

Since I’ve transferred them to a 15L pot (4 days ago), I haven’t yet found the best watering solution.
Do you have any recommendations on how my water schedule should be? I know I’m asking too much.. thanx for ur time anyways

I’m growing in Soil got it from a flower shop.
• Nutrients from Hesi (the starter pack)
• Lights 400w HPS
• Plant is at day 57 (from seed)
• unfortunately I don’t know the strain

Yea as had stated its hard to tell at night for sure.
Will definitely need to see them in the morning.

As for watering can you lift those pots? If so I suggest getting another 15l pot. And keeping soil in it dry at all times.

That will give you a guage of weight. when your plant has dried to the point of needing water it will feel similar to the dried pot. If it doesn't need water it will be fairly heavier. Some use a scale.

I have gotten used to the weight difference so its become easy to tell when they need water.

You can also use a moisture meter. That works well.

The finger test where if it more than an inch dry into the soil can work as well but I feel its horribly inaccurate.

And nah your good. The more you ask the better you will grow.

It's possible that there could be a N deficiency because of the flush... I think.. but Like @Wizzlebiz said... the color it's too far off and could be normal for the strain.

I didn’t quite understand the part about,

“As for watering can you lift those pots? If so I suggest getting another 15l pot. And keeping soil in it dry at all times.”


I bought this a week ago. F2087C98-5D5E-4955-91B5-01EC7DBF4221.jpeg
Is this what you mean with moisture meter? if so, at what point of the meter should I water my plant?

I feel smarter already, all because of you guys. Appreciate it :leaf:

So your plant is in a 15l pot. When you water it it becomes heavier.

If you keep another 15l pot around full of dry soil you can feel the difference of has water vs needs water.

Yes that is a moisture meter. I assume it has Ph on it as well. Which won't work well for Ph. I can guarantee that lol.

But the moisture meter part will work well assuming its functioning properly.

If using that put deep into the soil. When it is in the red I'd say between a 2 and 3 its time to water. You can guage it simply by keeping a close eye on your plants and allow them to get so dry they droop a little. Measure the moisture in the soil with the meter at the point of droop and you will then know what is right for your plant on that meter.

Just keep a really close eye. I did this and checked every half hour for the droop.
