Well I’m a first time grower and first time posting here so hope I’m doin this right . A here are some pics from today the set up is 3

3 area with a 300W LED Full Spectrum they have always been about 18 inches away 6 hours of dark 81 degrees on week 6 since seed.

What soil are you using? No offense but the soil looks like it may cause you some problems. I only say this because I made that mistake when I first started. You want a good amount of perlite mixed in with your soil and you need adequate drainage. Smart pots are great too.

Without more info ...

Purple stalk can be stress , ph issue , mag deficiency, lockout , etc.
Medium is mulchy looking.

Need full setup info. You may have to scrub these and start over.

Thanks for the input sorry to sound so new but may I ask what are smart pots ? The soil was an organic pot potting soil for veg, was told so repot with another soil for flowering but haven’t ordered it yet because they started looking like this
And for sure I need and want real pots again was waiting to start flowering to repot but still haven’t purchased any but are you suggesting my new pots have the drain trays as well ? So these pics are from 9 days ago they are getting a lot worse should I repot them the right way in real pots ? Or add the right stuff and trying to save these ? Just start flowering and see what if anything happens ? After all everything is a learning moment.

Thanks for the help Would you suggest I report them I’m larger better pots with new soil let veg another 10-20 days to recover than start flowering? Or well I guess I’m asking if I have any other options aside from trash and starting over ? Clones ? Again thanks and hope your day rocked

Is it beyond saving? Either of them ? Set in 48/48 inch tent and honestly the rest is just a couple fans so if ya don’t mind what would you do if this was your first grow and all you wanted to do was get through all stages of growth learn improve and attempt #2 will be with 4 plants and 600W ? Or scratch pride go buy soil and pots and grow the next four ? I could get clones I do reside in The Mile High State after all Again thank you for any and all help hope your today was coo and you tomorrow even better

Omg Mile high guy. It's a good question. After all it's all fun. plus you can go buy whatever the fuck you want anyway. Do your pots have some kind of drainage holes? If not, just get under em somehow and drill holes. That's one. 2, you have no perlite in there. Go get some. This will require you to repot and if you have some soil left mix in something like 30% perlite. As long as you're doing that, get some better pots. YOu are doing something right, and I think it's that your light is ok, I mean not by all this forum peoples standards but it's ok, and your height distance seems to be workng okay. That first pic just above looks fine. The others not so much, but your nodal spaces arent that far apart. That one with all the purple edges and spots looks pretty bad, but try to save it, just for the hell of it. Anything can be saved but it is going to take a long time. Dont try too many things. Maybe just plain water and don't over water and don't under water. Just work on that. They need to recover for some time before you try flower. If you must try fertilizer if it's not in the soil already, just try a little Fish Fertilizer from the depot, in my opinion. I wouldn't pay for clones especially not now. Your just going to fuck them up. Well unless you can grow them outside there.

Thanks for keepin it real They will be repotted this weekend in 2 gallon smart smart bags with fox Farm soil ? Thanks again and happy growing

When you grow in soil do not cut corners, I use fox farm ocean forest + pearlite 3 to 1, add a bit of worm casings, good drainage is imperative, use clay pellets or growstones, your probably going to run into trouble, might want to think about transplantation if possible, good luck.

They're coming along nicely.
I like Happy Frog. I planted my tomatoes at work in straight Happy Frog and they love it.
Too hot for Cannabis though. At least full strength it is. It'd make a nice soil amendment and given that I get it for free...well that's a huge bonus.

I'm a soil guy exclusively. And I like rock phosphate and azomite. A little greensand, composted manure and some worm castings and I don't need to bother with chemical fertilizers. You should try it. You'll never burn your plants again.

Anthonylbg · Aug 8, 2018

Too hot ? I’m not sure what that means and again thanks for the input your soil mixture sounds like a solid plan but I imagine my next grow will be with another fox farm. I do have a question for you I’m 3 days into flowering and I snapped a branch I was told to plant it in a rooting soul and it would be fine . Is that true ? What cycle should it be on ? Back to veg ? Continue flowering ? Or more like 6 hours of light ?

If u accidentaly snapped a branch, and its large enough to clone, u need to slice it right above where u snapped it (or even higher if its to close to a node) at a 45 degree angle. Preferably w a razor. Then on the back side of the cut, scrape it gently w the razor. Then place n a cup of water only covering the cut part and another quarter inch up. Place n indirect light, n wait for roots 1-2wks. Not th only way just a simple one, that wrks well. If u dont get it lemme knk

Also too hot , i believe, meant too high in nitrogen
