add her to pot a lil larger but add a shit load of perlite to the medium. That soil looks pretty rich my dude. What brand is it??

it's recycled FF Ocean Forest with recycled manure matter in it and some good old fashioned top soil. I cooked it in a grocery bag in the sun for close to a month. I know I should have added perlite but had none at that time. I will be grabbing some of the perlite the end of the week.

It does need a larger pot (I have a 5 Gallon smart pot) but right now it's in such critical condition I hate to transplant, ya know? plus I want to wait and add some perlite to a different batch. I have more soil cooking, should be done by the end of the week. How's that for timing? I love recycled soil. This is the first time I've actually had a problem with it.

Yesterday :(

I got some pretty decent advice, I'm just waiting it out to see what happens with it.
I think it's a Boron def but another poster said to spray with a touch of Epsom salt water.
Poster said to add a drop of H202 to the drench. At least, that's how I interpreted it ;)

I just sprayed her again, this time with plain pH'd water. That was about 20 minutes ago.

She's not falling over yet :)

How long ago? (Sorry if I missed you saying already.)
I would guess your manure didn't get diluted down enough or compost enough.

its cool. It was cooking for a month (at least) before I opened the bag and used it. I have three other plants growing in the same medium and they aren't showing any signs like this.
Mine looks a lot like this......linked from another site, Boron

Don't take this as FACT because this is just something my grow shop guy told me. "After flushing you most likely WON'T get a proper reading. once dry enough to water, water with plain water and check again." AGAIN that MAY NOT be a fact. I have no clue, I did what he said the last time I had this problem and he WAS correct. the readings WERE different the second was actually LOWER than the first. (looking in my old logs now...2-04-12:After flushing I was at 6.2.... 2-09-12:Watered with R/O water(Walmart "Drinking" water) pH is at 5.7.............................I lost that plant because I couldn't correct my pH for some reason.... It just seems funny to me, I myself was using RECYCLED FFOF! that's right AFTER I switched to CocoGro but was still using up what was left of the FFoF.

see how weird pH can be with WET WET soil? I switched to Coco and General Organics(pH not necessary) just because I was NOT getting the whole pH thing down. some people don't even have to check it. they are just good like that. but for those of us who have to spray paint their thumbs green it's not as simple.

Buawhahaaaa I love it! Guess I am looking into Coco and General Organics. I really hate having to diagnose things that I've never seen in person. The internet helps though ;)

I think "recipe for success" is a better organic product. Advanced Nutrients puts it out I THINK. I use General Organics cause it's not too pricey. around 40 for a GOBOX and $18 a quart for all but BioBud(around $24 and Diamond Black is HIGH priced but RARELY used[first 2 weeks MAX])
