I just got some fresh rooted clones from a close friend. One of the 2 has always been looking great and the other not as much.

Last night it was looking very droopy, so i figured it was a lil too dry. I have been keeping the soil damp to the touch, not much water at all. Im using tap water with a drop of voodoo juice and b-52. Woke up next morning and its not looking droopy anymore, but now it almost looks burned. I am using big cfls and they are close so it might just be that. However, could it be nute burn already? should i just stick to plain water? i wanted to give my roots a jump-start with some voodoo

the one in the first pic def looks overwatered, they dont need to be damp to the touch. not sure about the leaves that look burnt, i'd give it a day or so and if it gets worse then flush and wait for a bit on the nutes.

Ok good, you might be able to save it. Do you have any access to Clearex?

Have you been ph'ing the tap water or the water/nute combo you were giving it before?

Never heard of clearex, can check the local shop though

Ph has been as close to 6 as i can, dont have a digital ph meter yet though so matching colors isnt quite the same

I actually prefer the drops. So what I think has happened is this:

Ocean Forest, un-cut (with perlite or light warrior or something) is almost too nutrient rich for clones. Either way, whether it is or isn't, there are plenty of nutes in the soil for the first two weeks after it has been transplanted, if not three or four weeks. You started giving your plant nutes too soon and burned it, now it's pissed.

Flushing with water could work well, but you really need to give the plant a couple days at least of no water at all. Also, let your tap water sit out for 48 hours so the chlorine can evaporate off before you give it to them. Many people have no problems even with slightly chlorinated water, but at this point, your plants need optimum conditions if they have any chance of surviving, which I am not sure they do. Can you post a pic of the top view, so I can get a look at the new growth on top?

What I would do if I were you, is wait until I can stick my finger into the soil just past the first knuckle and have it be fairly dry. Then flush the shit out of them, with clearex if you can afford it. I have some sitting around, so to me, no big deal. But for you, if you have to buy it and then the plant dies....might not be worth it. Up to you.

In those cups, run 32 ounces or so of ph'd (6.3-6.eight) water through it and then leave it alone for a few days. These plants cannot be kept constantly saturated. What you are doing is constantly releasing more of what's hurting them every time you water them a little bit. Wait, see if they make it, then flush the shit out.

With nutes in cannabis, less is more as you can see if you look at your plants. Post that top view so we can tell if it has a chance. Good luck.
