thats not funny man. you dont think it will make it? idk what the fuck happened this time, my first attempt at growing i realized what i did wrong, so i changed it this time, but im pretty sure there are some variables that are killing it..

for instance, me puttting it directly outside under uv, which was cooking the leafs. and having too dark of a plastic pot, that thing atracts so much heat.

wouldnt u rather do your own grow from seed? raise them.. rather than taking someone elses stuff?...u need to plan ahead before even trying to grow.. i understand the passion u have to grow, but it takes patience, knowledge and trial & error.. it took me 4-6 months till i got my grow underway ... cuz i wanted to learn everything i can about growing cannabis ... cuz cannabis needs the right conditions to thrive ... you should watch this video it has 7 parts to it ..feed your brain everything u can about growing .. if u cant learn to grow cannabis after watching this then u won't ever will

yeah i really would, but clones are easier to get at the moment.. i have read everything, its just when it comes down to it i dont know when/how to apply this knowledge correctly without error. i have read the cannabible,millions of threads and others grows, i can never have enough knowledge tho.. i just get frustrated when its not going good, cuz its the perfect weather. i really do enjoy watching it grow, and do have a passion for it tho. iam definatly gonna keep trying, but i dont want to fail this one

thanks for that video, im gonna watch it, only thing is its inside, im growin outside.. its all good though.

Main problem is the Miracle Grow soil. MG soil has "Ozmocote" fertilizer in it. Ozmocote pisses fire ( Hot Nutrients) every time it gets watered, It is time release little fert balls in that soil and every time you water it you are fertilizing it. Those leaves are definitely nute burned. Heres what you do...go to the store and get some plain old topsoil/potting soil get the cheap stuff that contains NO FERTILIZERS. Get a bag of Plain Unfertilized PERLITE too. Mix them together 60% soil 40% perlite. transplant the clone, try to gently remove the MG soil from the roots. Place into new soil and water well. Now wait until the soil is really really dry, in fact bone dry to the middle then water it again with plain water until it starts to come out of bottom of pot. After recovery give it light dose of nutes every 3rd watering. increase nutes ever so slightly as plant grows. More nutes does not make a faster growing plant it makes a dead plant. More water for a plant does not help, it only drowns them. In everything be moderate.

sorry dude I dont mean to laugh at it, im a noob grower myself. But my plant is just short stalky and blooming like crazy. compared to yours that is stretchy and only has a few leaves that are pretty much dead as it is. If I had to guess I'd say its done for. But im not an expert. And im going indoors as to you growing outdoors. Pretty dramatic difference in the lighting and what not but anyways..You said its a clone huh. Thats what I got was a clone and you were talking about it a minute ago, I got platinum bubba cush and it looks bomby so far! Im gonna start flowering tonight. goodluck man

alright so i bought some cheap organic soil with peat/sand/perlite/ and sum other things, i flushed the plant then transplanted it. im not having any high hopes in it living, im planning on starting over tommorow with 2 bubba clones, and fix my mistakes. ill keep it updated if she seems to have improved from the soil/new larger pot.

ill update my whole plan tommoro to see if it flys straight with you fellow RIU's..

alright idk if maybe she liked the transplant, or not. she seemed to "enjoy" the move, because she is perking up more. its still a cold day today which i think may be okay, since she wasnt really feeling that summer heat about two days back.

today she still looks a bit shitty, perking up better still. its seems she likes night more then day right now. everytime i take it out in the morning she happy and perking up. its been cold the past couple days out here, so i dont think shes had hardly any sun. ill keep it updated if she survives..

shes 8 days old now.. haha made it about 4 days farther then my first attempt. im still gonna get a bubba cone sometime this week and start it off right.

Perfect. Do it. That what I did on my first grow, worked a charm. Main thing is to take it slow, and don't get impatient. Breath slowly, she's taken it easy.

She's looking much better.... Don't fert yet, just give her about 200-300ml of plain water once the soil is dry, all over the top of the soil. Leave her to take it slow for a day or two.

Edit: Might be a good idea to light mist foliar spray her with plain water until the soil is dry.

Add another 200-300ml of plain water every 2 days over 4 days. Mix a low concentration of fert (I prefer a liquid organic - I mix half a teaspoon to 5lt of plain water in a bucket), and water it once every 2 days for a week. Then slowly add a little bit of fert with a few more liters of water to your water mix every few weeks, until you reach to what is recommended on the fert bottle.

After a couple more weeks use whatever nute solution of want... but slowly... :leaf:
