you know i realy pact the shit out of the soil in these pots and I just checked them all and they are all waterlogged at the bottom of the pots and i waterd them yesterday morning. I moved the pots around as much as a could to loosen the soil and I used a little skewer to pull out waterlogged soil out of the drain holes and try to remove as much water as i could. Some of the pots water dripped out when i turned them on there side.

Holy shit, why did you do that?lol Yeah, sounds like the roots are either drowning, or rotting. If I were you, I'd mix up a new batch of soil, and go really heavy on the perlite, then transplant to a bigger pot. If the plant are save-able, they'll save theirselves. If it's a deficiency, they'll fix theirselves. It's a win-win.

i dont have root rot, when i was pulling waterlogged soil out of the drain holes i could see some roots and they were white, and the plants are growing great besides the color

i cant move to bigger pots i have no room. they are growing very rapid still so i hope they are fine.

try transplanting into a larger pot ASAP i havefound this to be the only thing i could do to save my plants try transplanting one plant into a 5 or 10 gallon pot and report back in a 3 to 4 days.

no room for bigger pots.

^Hmm....well, I guess all you can do, is get a piece of coat hanger wire, or something similar, and poke lots of holes in the soil, breaking it up. If ya grind it to a point, and you won't have to worry about damaging the roots.


Sometimes I do that before I flush, for nice even cleansing of the soil.

I don't know what's wrong with your plants, but I mixed 10 ml of 'Floradix Formula' liquid iron in one litre of water to foliar feed some plants of mine that were going white/yellow right in the new growth. In my case, the affected leaves were going wrinkly too. Crinkly would be a better word, like micro-wrinkly. Really wierd looking. In two days they greened up again. However, now it's two weeks later and it is happening to one of them again! I suspected an Iron and or Zinc lock out due to a screw up I did when I made the soil. Used the wrong guano and put too much P in. I think.

Anyhow, this Floradix is the only liquid iron I could find. You can buy it in health food stores, it is made in Germany. The only other thing in it is B1, 2, 3, 6 and 12. I was considering dissolving Zn vitamins, but did not get to it and the plants were looking better.

It's such a crap shoot with nutrients and problems. Really frustrating. Just thought I'd mention this product in case you want to foliar feed some iron, it seemed to help mine and at least did no harm.

Good luck. You know a whole lot more about this than I do, looking at your previous grow in the back ground. I'm doing my first right now, 5 females. (Started with 10 seeds, got 8 plants, three males.)

That's why I went with DynaGro ferts. They're a chemical fert, but, also one of the few that contain everything you need, including the micro-nutes. Very easy for new guys to use. I use Calmag on the side, also.

It looks to me that its either too hot in your grow room, or they have a nitrogen deficiency, which can be fixed with worm castings (it's sold at nurseries, but I'm pretty sure Lowe's sells it too)

Also, just to be on the safe side, id check for spidermites. I had a plant that turned yellow on me once, but it turned out to be mites.

nitrogen doesnt start form the top

thanks for the info, i was looking in my sunlight supply catalog looking for a liquid with iron zinc and mag, then i relized i already have micro nutes in liquid i am using humboldt nutes 3 part and 1 part the micro has everything in it. Humboldt nutes is not organic i wonder if you foiler spary with chemical nutes. hmmm. well good luck on your first grow. Just remember it is a weed so its takes alot to kill them. Out in nature they figure this stuff out on there own.

can you foiler spray with chemical nutes?

yea you right, also my veins in the leaves are green, only the leaf is this bright yellow, typicaly signs of a micro nutes diff.

Thanks to everybody that helped
