cheers and thanks for asking. Based on your information given it sounds alittle like nute burn maybe the soil had feeder nutes. I recommend tap water set out for 24 hours alway unless your on a strick regiment and keep an eye everyday. Root bound wont really show burning or curling unless its stressing the plant badly. You can really try a few things to salvage your grow I would def start by not having to transplant. if you use coco puffs or the pre cubes you can plant them direct after the second set show, some do before I do after second set, just bare in mind not to deep. Let the older leaves die off just dont pull them unless they are dead dead yellow is ok but dont take to many the plant still needs them to get food while in flowering state... I top mine and sometimes they stress from it... stress looks alot like nute burn or heat stress... im not an expert on problems yet still looking over pictures and compairing problems
I like to use plain jane steril potting soil mixed with perlite and using germ nutes which are very very soft on the seedling...its like giving your kid formula untill ready for milk...some kids can only have certain kinds what ever works stick with that.
flushing ok but not flooding on both problems will help level out alittle. You can learn to tie down sativa's helps with space issues. I wait till more then half the trichs are golden darker amber then pull but i flush a week or so maybe minimum 4 days on every grow. the plant will die regardless you want to catch it. If you pull them cloudy it changes the effect of the smoke the potency and can ruin a good crop of danksness. always turn off hps before you check they reflect the yellowing tint i've found. dont be afraid to germ more then you need some die from bad genetics or poor tlc.

Hey mate thanks for the detailed response.
Ok firstly im growing in a neautral Coco medium but im starting off the seedlings rockwool cubes. There is no nutrients in the rockwool cubes or coco I use. I have no fed the seedlings any nutrients at all, only PH'd tap water and the E.C reading of my tap water is 0.1 so its fairly clean. The seedlings are still in rockwool cubes and have no been transplanted into coco yet.
So Im doubting it could be any sort of nute burn as there is no nutes what so ever.
My seedlings sit around 5-6inchs from my light source. Fairly powerful little CFL's so I dont get them too close in case of burning.
But I still have burnt seedlings, just dont know how. Heat doesnt seem to be an issue as I have very good airflow, most of the time I dont bother putting the cover back on and the seedlings get shit loads of fresh cool air.
Its got me stumped as to what it can be. I have never had this problem with any of the crap bagseed seeds I have found.
These seeds that i have now are my first ever batch of quality seeds I have ordered from Herbies. 1 x GH Lemon Skun and 1 x Nirvana Ice both fem seeds.
I really dont think its the seed quality but Im a noob so really need more insight on this.
Hope this excess information helps you understand what my problem could possibly be.
Cheers again mate,

I've always stopped useing nutrients about a week prior to harvest and just use plain water as needed. To me it makes a difference in the taste and smell. Curious, if you've run MG in the past, why did you recently make a post asking about it? https://www.rollitup.org/indoor-growing/646692-mg-3month-perlite-added-garden.html

hello there im a TOTAL noob to all this and have been doing as much reading as i can to further my knowledge.thanks for starting this thread as i do have questions.
Im currently running the lucas formla with GH maxibloom and silica blast and myplants seem to love it and look healthy. although i was wondering if I should also use something like GH floralicious or AN nirvana as Ive read that the maxibloom alone doesn't contain all the goodies my girls want. advice is much appreciated

why would you wait till half the trichs are amber? that would mean your way past prime harvest time and thc is degrading maybe your here to learn not teach

20 years experience and your promoting Miracle Grow soil and flushing it ? It has time released capsules unless you purchase Organic ( if that crap could really be considered such in the first place ) . Cheap soils are not something I advise to newbies as they have bad ratios of nutrients and often lack a proper buffer and pH
2.25 Ounces per plant , I guess your teaching and preaching upon the Hazey Grapes Methodology , Just search the HazeyGrape man here and you ll see what I am talking about .. I think many people here would be happy to have 2 ounces per plant initially , but most want triple this at the least when it boils down to it and rewards for the work done and interests paid in .. Why work for a few days worth of smoke ? Legal weight limits ? Multiple Genetic Rotation ?
I agree with the poster above , why allow Thc to degrade to CBN , doing so for ones own personal preference is one thing , but too promote and teach such is not wise around here ..
Been growing 24 years myself but I do know there are many Vets here with more knowledge and experience and in due time you just may see some of them speaking up ..
Best of Karma but be ready to debate, as nobody here likes gospel or myths , we like Science around here and facts verses opinions . As the later we all know is most common here though sad to say .

larger yields mainly, even passive hydro will yield more than soil
my plants grow using NFT the roots do not grow into any medium but it is active hydroponics, and i think you're talking more about passive hydro
even so folk get great yields with the hempy style buckets (passive hydro)
imo with soil growing there are more environmental variables involved
with hydro you have a meter to measure anything you would need to know
when and how often to water and feed plants, the environmental conditions (temp & humidity) of a growroom can alter how often plants need water and food
which is the case for most growers who do not have complete climate control over their enviroment, temps fluctuate
some of the most common problems with soil are over-watering and over-feeding
imo you can take away many of the variables when growing hydroponically, over-watering is virtually impossible and overfeeding can be avoided very easy
having a meter giving you readings makes it too easy
when plants are growing in an active hydro system they have a water supply constantly available to them, if the environment becomes warmer or colder the plants can drink more or less
for this reason actively grown hydro plants can handle higher grow room temps, with no fear of wilting or drying out, the plants will drink more to cool themselves down
i find at temps around 85f they will grow faster and larger than at 75f
many of the modern hydro foods we have today include ph buffers/chelates so PH readings or adjustments i find are unnecessary, unless you have a poor quality water supply
with soil the grower would need to know how quickly a given size pot will dry out at any given temp for any given size plant
although this would also be true of a passive hydro system
other than first time growers wanting to invest as little money as possible on the initial setup (soil is dirt cheap)
i wonder why folk would run a passive soil garden or passive hydro (hempy buckets) etc,
when active hydro is easier and yields more
peace

ok I expected to get pounded on the title of the thread but DAMMMMMMM... Everyone I mean everyone has there own way or starting and finishing their girls. I enjoy talking about grows and setups. Sharing my opinion when its something that I may have done to my own satisfaction. I have grown some frosty nugs for years now. I asked about MG because I have never used it indoors always foxfarm...or Dr. Earth... I am layed off so I figured if they dont have my shit at the depot I would get what ever they had that works for now..not five months but this one grow...So I asked a simple question and got a good answer only after being judged by people that have their own opinion... Judging people on here is like judging in real life.. if you dont know me? lol ok...

Yall must read into shit like its 50 shades of grey its only my opinion when asked a first time grower question....Instead of trolling me why not answer some questions in the newb section........lol
or you just want to argue... If thats the case I'll take my wagon and mtf along... RIU is not the only forum and as it seems is getting like the rest...

IF i run MG or any cheap meaning ive used the cheap shit not necessarly mg I ment like the basic cheapo soil they have five pallets of at the depot...I have always seen it at the depot and got it once for jalapeno's but never used it in my indoor... I consider it last choice... but still non the less its cheap in price...or am I dreaming two big bags for 20.00 bill....
Look as I said in the original thread Im not a freaken pro but I grow my own shit to keep from dealing with high price short bag thugs/snobs know it all punks... If its a non basic question then I will ask others to chim in on the subject people that I know on here that will be able to answer the dam question...
Im non combative but get annoyed at people that throw negative shtuff...
I have a radio in my closet and it plays classical music for my girls 18 hours a day.... nub what..

Hey there yankiedoodledandie I have a question to see if u can help me out , my less than foot long sour d bagseed leaves keep sweating , especially the lower leaves , is it because of poor airflow ?

I have not used either of them personally so I cant speak to them but they are all good as long as your keeping track of ph.. the basics will change the n p k some mirco nutes change other things Im still learning about good and bad bacteria things like that. Ill ask them in the proper thread to keep the hate low.
If someone has used it and there info is accurate try it a couple times and tweek it to your grow situation.all just my OPINION>..onion..
Don't take this the wrong way, but when you start a thread saying "I've been growing and researching marijuana for 20 years, ask me anything" that (atleast to me) sounds like your saying you know and have tried it all and are a pro. If your just giving your opinion on things, you should say that in the first place. No offence and I'm not judgeing you, just giving my opinion.

An artist does not refer to himself as "an artist"...
Let's say you have bud rot on your plant. If part of the main cola is hit, is it alright to separate out the rotten sections and use the surrounding bud? In other words if part of a bud doesn't look moldy is it okay to smoke/vape that part or just b/c you can't see mold it doesn't mean it's safe b/c the spores are there?
Years ago I found vaping fresh picked bud off a plant that was harvested early b/c of rot irritated my throat. I'm not sure if it was b/c the surrounding buds were comprimised b/c of mold nearby or b/c vaping fresh picked bud isn't a good idea b/c if you don't let it dry and cure you're getting chlorophyl hits.
Now i always dry and cure bud properly.
