I sprayed my plant with some insect killer, organic. No my plants are dying.

I havent given them water or nutes for about a week (I transplanted and the new medium was moist so i let the roots spread and drink up all the water in the new medium) so i know its not nutes or overfeeding.

What do I do?

The plant looks like its slowly deteriorating every day..

Sad...

well im not an expert or anything,but id say rinse them down really well and water them to flush em. i would think laying on the nutes at this point could stress them more.
maybe someone with more experience with this could chime in.

on another note,that really sucks to hear man.i hope you can save them.:o

really? do you think nutrients could be worse at this point?

Well this started happening like 3 days ago, I gave it 150 ppms of nutes yesterday
I just dont see the connection..Nutes and spray?

well like i said im no expert here,i only have like 10 sucessful under my belt. If you saying it is cause of the poisen then i gotta believe ya,you know your stuff better then me. in that case id try and rinse that shit out,and maybe give a light nute dose,i would think fulldoseing it could possibly stress it more. but like i said take my word with a grain of salt i am no botanist. im hopeing a more experienced member can chime in here. and tell me if i am or not off base.

You stated the pots you transplanted into already had moist soil in them. This could also have been wet soil way off the PH range. With Pro Mix soil you DO NOT get the soil wet until you are ready to use it, if you leave old soil in a pot or new soil that was moistened for several days with no plant in the pot the PH may have been waaaay off and causing the problem to get worse. I would wait for few more comments but I am going along with previous poster who advised a good flush and stop feeding until they snap out of it. I would not feed until you see growth again, but please wait for more advice. I just wanted to make sure you didnt have some pots with moist soil in them for while before you transplanted because this could be big problem with PH. Some organic mixes i think are the exact opposite where you may need to condition or moisten before planting to break in the soil or whatever terminology is

yu could try spraying it.. making sure yu get the underneath parts of the leaves because thats where they breathe
with just water i rinse mine after spraying them like its a bath dont overkill on the spray

hope it helps, good luck :)

insecticides are more often than not phototoxic .... meaning if you sprayed then under full lights you will burn the hell out of them..
and the damage is done....

flush with plain water ....then during your dark cycle spray leaves with clean h20

cut back to half strength nutrients and a week is too long for no water try every 3third day especially after transplant..

get vitamin b1 give it lots of plain water and b1 every third day...

water your plant pick it up notice how heavy it feels.... pick plant up each when it feels light ware it most situations.75ish temps with good soil with lotsa drainage every third day ...a week is way too long ..

plus when you transplant you want to water heavily right then with b1 to stop transplant shock.. then wait 2-3 days and water again then on third watering then start adding nutrients



plain water will stress plant under 1000 hps.. spray when lights are off use agreen light bulb to see what you are doing

damage... what bug/bugs are you fighting.

I have never heard of plain water stressing plants under 1000w. Do you have a reason or link to more info on this? I am wondering how your supposed to flush the plants then under 1000w lights, I am wondering if I have been doing things wrong under my 1000w

what i think he means is spraying water on your plants under any sort of HID lighting(does not have to be 1000 watts a 400 watt will do the same damage)
when you have water droplets on the leaves under the light,the droplets act as a magnifying glass and will therefore burn your leaves. which can leave brown spots,which can then cause you to think there is some sort of deficiency and causing more damage cause your trying to treat a nute problem that does not exist.

Gotcha was stoned and not thinking about spraying but watering in general. Lol that makes more sense, I NEVER spray my plants anyway. I have only sprayed when I was growing from seed and fucked up and pollinated. I am always afraid of mold anyway so I never spra, bugs are annoying though I have always wondered if using incense would fuck the whiteflies up and leave your buds alone. Not willing to try to see
