dude, if you added a banana tea to your plants, you need to flush them stat. Pointed up leaves is a mag def. or a mag tox. and if you just tea'd them they are hurting.
hi, thanks for your help, what i did for them was flush them with 5L of water.
would i need more flushing?

Just make sure that your water is draining out, if you have it in a normal pot, siphon off the reservoir. You could do it like 3 times probably, i would space them at least 3 hours apart so you don't drown them. Just watch for improvement, flush till they start to look normal again.
Here is a great link that i have used for a while, it has helped me identify every problem i have seen, and solve it.

[EDIT]
I just want to stress how important proper drainage from your pot is, If it is not proper, you could make the problem worse.

they may recover, empty the water from the overflow trays, and keep an eye on them, give them a day or 2.

hey man yeah i never seen that before may be magnesium who knows? make sure your soil dont stay to soggy elevate the pot off the water tray so the air can get under it, not sure what happened there how strong a dose of the banana tea did you add? should just use a little molasses its alot safer to add but anyways heres another really good link with alot more info that i used ----->http://www.420magazine.com/forums/problems-pests-disease-control/81275-cannabis-plant-pest-problem-solver-pictorial.html
hope this helps keep us posted on how things are looking im sure there will be more people here with there opinions!!
Good Luck!!

here's another nutrient deficiency/toxicity chart, for general gardening.
http://www.ces.ncsu.edu/depts/hort/consumer/quickref/fertilizer/nutri_def.html
if you notice in the potassium entry under "excess", it says excess K (bananas have lots of K) can cause N deficiencies and interrupt the uptake of Mg and Ca.....

hello GUYS, my plant has gotten worse. i thinking whether cut it or wait. here some pictures http://www.flickr.com/photos/64152142@N08/
temps are bellow 80 all the time.
soil humus, normal black soil.
ferts, liquid humus, chemical nutes 10 30 20 , and banana tea (all this together was working pretty fine untill last banana) i blame de nutes, i added it 3 days before the tea, and i saw the plant a bit brunt, however i added the tea since i read it didnt cause overfertilization.
should i chop it and and smoke it? or wat.

its a sin you would have to cut it down so early it must be nute burned you tried flushing the soil did you are those leaves dried and crisy all dead because she dont look very good if shes dieing you have no other choice but to smoke her like she is i guess next time use less nutes and add some molasses tea instead of banana and if you live near the ocean get some seaweed also works great try to keep it organic as much as possible i still use MG tomato fertilizer 18/18/21 and it worked great for me plus molasses and seaweed tea..
1 question though what did you have in your soil to neutralize all the acidic nutes and stuff you put in it?

also i shoulda asked what pH your water run off out of your soil was after you flushed?
Because pH is one of the biggest problems That can Lock out nutrients and make you think its a def i just went through it this grow myself!

No it wasnt the nutes but stop adding bananas tea and shit nun the less. Any recent changes ,transplant ,relocation etc? Plants are stressed, no nutes till plant is clearly better and ease off on watering ,let that big pot dry out. be ok in 1-2 weeks bro.

Dude this looks like a severe pH change. Did u water them at some point and not check pH? I killed 6 plants this way and once its done it seems like they are doomed no matter what you do.. I was a noob but I watered them with 4.1 nute solution and killed them all. No amount of flushing or anything could save them... anyway they look exactly like my plants that died. After reading up on it, the best thing to do would be to change mediums, even then, transplanting them when they're in shock like this will most likely kill them. Good luck man I don't really know what else could be wrong..
well sir, i think she is dying, today i saw her with some stems really bent down. like the stems are not steady anymore, i guess ill chop it down. and save some buds
thank you !
