i have 2 barneys farm sweet tooth autos, MG moisture control soil, 600w hps, and using the general organics go box. they r yellowing pretty bad and overall jus an ugly and not even close to finished. i dont really get whats going on. i also had 4 Easy ryder (Low ryderseeds) and a la diva (delicious seeds) that turned out beautiful in the same conditions, pretty decent yields for autos. about an oz dry for the easy ryders (almost 2 on one beast) and a half on the la diva. these sweet tooths took about 6 weeks to even start flowering (a very long time if uve ever grown autos) and now they are very disappointing looking now. they have been flowering about 4 weeks. so if u could imagine im about 10 weeks in on an auto and not happy about it:cuss: because of these ive now officially moved on. learned alot but im done gettin my feet wet im diving in. got an og kush #18 and head band from reserva privada and a liberty haze from barneys farm germing now but after these seeds from barneys i kinda regret the LH. any ideas? ive tried everything i can think of and all i got to show for it is these ugly mofos

Id start flushing them a bit cuz they look as if they are getting nutrient burn, also is your air circulation good cuz that can cause your leaves to do what they are doing. Another thing that will cause the leaves to do that is if they need some magnesium, There is a term " praying for magnesium" hence the leaves curling up.

i have a fan at the top of my tent pulling air our and a small oscillating fan blowing on them. the air flow in there is much better now than it was when there was 8 plants in there. so would u suggest flushing then adding manesium? today is their feeding day so just the magnesium?

Id say just go ahead and flush them with some proper ph'd water for two to four days and see how that works, also how much have you been watering them?

Okay well here's the problem with MG soil... It contains time release nutes which can cause some serious nutrient burn especially when mixed with a flowering feeding. Autos are VERY sensitive to nutrients because of their ancestory of thriving in the nutrient low Siberian landscape. Begin flushing would be my only suggestion. I'd wait a bit before giving any sort of mag supplement.

I flush in these cases. And give a treatment of some vitamin b water, let the soil dry up a bit before next water. Good Luck!

Most home depots have enough choices on soil, if not go to lowes. At the very worst you should be able to pick up a bale of peat moss, compost or manure, and some perlite or vermiculate and roll your own. its really not hard and a LOT cheaper. Lots of recipes on the web.

Damn I didn't realize you were using Miracle Grow. That's a no no in the mmj field, that's only good for Ornamental use only not for stuff to go in our bodies, and kagecog is right, just use fresh water from here on out.

You buggered with the ph, too late now the damage is done and harvest weight reduced. Next time keep ph at 6.5 .

That's really what its all about, I have the patience of a 4 year old, but I know in the garden patience is everything so I get pretty zen when I'm in there. Also with your soil releasing nutrients every time you water I would just keep using fresh water all the way to harvest, unless for any reason it looks as if it needs nutes.
