It looks more like a fertilizer burn loveweed, brown tips. Compare it to these nute burn pics.

What is your soil? How much have you been fertilizing?

You may have to do a flush, very easy.

There is nothing seriously wrong with your plants, they look pretty good. Maybe a slight nutrient burn from hot soil, that's all. Drooping, btw, is usually due to too little water, overwatering causes curling, if u can picture the difference. But in ether case they look neither too wet nor too dry.

The easiest way to fix your problem, is to transplant to a bigger pot. If not, you'll have to identify the deficiency, and try to correct it with fert. I'd transplant, it's much easier, they're ready for it, and most importantly.... it'll solve your problem.

I don't believe it is nut burn for i only gave her nutes once .. the lower leaves are drooping and the upper are slightly curling inwards.

i think i have to wait another week before i transplant because its only been a week since i'v last transplanted them ..
thank you for for help the 3 of you ..

i'v just checked the ph levels and where like really high 8.5-9.0 ph now i am adjusting it slowly to 6.5 hope it works out fine ..

also do spider mites flyy ?? and do you guys think it is time to top the plant ??

I wouldn't top it until you get your other problem under control, due to the fact that it's already under quite a bit of stress. It's already stunted, and that'll just slow it down more.

Nope, mites don't fly.

Now you do something else.

Germinate a few more seeds just in case, chuck the plants if you don't need them. Build some root pruning buckets for flower. Get your cloning tools together. Stay busy and plan the rest of your grow, all you can do is wait.

How much water did you use in your flush? 1x pot size? 2x?

Evenif you havent fed it with regular nutes good soil can still burn it. What soil are you using? My plants looked similar for a bit after I transplanted to FFOF.

 

[Imaulle]

either nute burn or start of mag def, what is your soil and what have you fed her so far?

If those little black flies look like tiny mosquitos I'd re-pot with new substrate as their' lavae will be eating your roots... Called Fungus Gnats and they live on the decaying matter in your soil.

Forgot to say: Flushing won't help (though when you water you will notice plently of the adult (flies) become upset and start moving about. Their maggot looking offspring live in the soil, these lil fuckers love moist decaying matter so the best way to kill them off is to starve your plant of water for a while before gently removing from pot and (very gently) flushing the roots under luke warm water until you're left with plant/roots and no soil. Re-pot in new soil (or if you can't get hold of any, put your current stuff in the oven for 30 minutes (use something with a lid if you don't want to stink the kitchen out), rehydrate the soil/substrate and away you go.

Other options include insectisides/toxins - do a google for Fungus Gnats and there are a plethora of options available. I've just tried re-potting and seem to be rid of them and the same adverse effects your pics show have now stopped. The affected leaves haven't returned to normal (and I doubt they will) but the plant is showing no further signs of trouble and is doing well.

Be patient, two days isn't quite long enough for recovery. If that indeed was the problem, it'll be taking off again, within the next day, or three.

i already germinated and potted to more seeds..i used 2x pot size..

What soil are you using?

Holland flor potting mix. already used i once and had a successful grow..

what have you fed her so far?

i only fed her only once till now and i used miracle grow at 1/2 strength..

they do look like tiny black mosquitoes flying around and going in my soil but haven't identified them yet...
Do you think they are Fungus Gnats ?? Do you think re-potting with different potting soil will fix my problem ??

for now thats what i'm trying to do !! :/

I noticed in one of your pics your soil is seperated from the pot around the top . That happens when you wait to long to water . Just somthing I noticed thought I,d touch on .

If those little black flies look like tiny mosquitos I'd re-pot with new substrate as their' lavae will be eating your roots which is why there's no new growth and it appears that you haven't watered. Although you've done everything right the plant can't take water if the roots have been eaten. Called Fungus Gnats and they live on the decaying matter in your soil (and your roots).

Flushing won't help (though when you water you will notice plently of the adult (flies) become upset and start moving about.

n00t 10x for your information i guess thats the problem .. i will take your advice and tell all of you what happens..

 

[n00tt]

Sweet - you can forget starving of water and go straight to re-potting. Sooner the better... You've caught 'em early so I reckon you'll be back up and running in no time.

 

[loveweed420]

ok 10x for all of your advice .. i'll report it something else goes wrong.
