Hey everybody, new to the site, 1st grow, and having some issues. I've made all the rookie mistakes apparently. (MG soil, overwatering etc.) I think I've remedied most of these issues, but I'm still having some stunted growth issues.

I transplanted and flushed 1.5 weeks ago, and we're doing much better since. Pics are from 09/09/09... two days before transplant, the yellow potted plant is Crystal, 5 weeks old, and the other is WW also 5 weeks old. (in the pic)

Any advice would be much appreciated!:mrgreen:

Also, they're on a 18/6 photoperiod, under a 400w MH. one exhaust fan and one oscillating fan. I've used a 20 20 20 fert on them once since transplant. I'll try and get current pics up today.

the big one looks good. the other one looks like it was over watered at one point, you have fixed that so it should be ok now.

they don't need a whole lot of nutes at this point. under watering is better than over watering. :)

I had the same mistake as you my friend and I am trying to recover. I am truly interested in the success of your grow after the MG + Over watering.

o yeah, that little dying one in the front is from the yellow pot in the previous post. The other one is in pics 2 and 3 of this post.

two each of White Widow, Crystal, and Ice

It is soil.

I just used an "all purpose fertilizer" I've only used it maybe three times. (I have no clue!:roll:)

be careful on how often you feed, it might be overdoing it.. Your soil contains some nutrients as well and an overload would be harsh on the roots.

20 20 20 that sounds off....and for soil what are you using?...foxfarm soil...$15.....Grow Big 6-4-4.....$14.....you can heavy feed with these x3...i am also on my first grow and almost lost my 16inch magic merlin due to transplant error....(dont use milk container)...she perked back up with 4 hours....i had to take bottom cuttings but messed them up i think???? but trim off the bad part on each leaf....if its more than 60% than cut completely

I'm using green harvest potting soil. Everything seems better since the transplant, but I still have brown and yellow dried out leaves on most of the plants.... It's been about 2 weeks since they moved to bigger pots, and no overwatering since...

Any other ideas?

I've been letting them fall off or I've been taking them off, but I still have issues with the bottom leaves turning yellow and brown.... even after the overwatered ones were removed....

K, the problem is continuing... ALL my lower leaves are getting yellow, then brown and dried, and falling off. New growth seems good, but as the new leaves come in, the lower ones are dying.... ALso, as of late the new growth is a much paler green color......

Anybody have a thought?

update. PH is good. got a drop test yesterday... I think it might be humidity... all the leaves seem super dry... did some misting today, we'll see if things improve.
