k im sorry bout the shitty posting job but there it is...that was the first time i ever posted up pics...

the 1st one is why my plant with the oat meal, the second is one of my crappy leaves that was the main reason i decided to try it, the 3rd is another pic of the plant, and the 4th is my two plants the one on the left is the plant with the oat meal and the right one is in a soil mix i made with random stuff to mess around and see what would happen.

also the one with the oat meal i also put 2 worms in the pot to see if it would do anythin so far it seems to be doing fine not getting better but not getting worse

I think your pictures look good, mine come out low res, not sure how to push up better ones. That 1 plant looks pretty good. Your other isn't horrible, though I can see why you wanted to try something.

You won't be able to see this too good, but this is what my plant is doing.

Pockits, oh pockits you got all kinda nute disorders... but you can save um with good top dressing...

add some blood and bone meal, greensand if you got it, a little good compost or some Epsoma plant-tone

the yellow comment was to growone, and I suggest you add a good top dressing as well

do you have a way of testing you water/soil ph?? if not i WOULD NOT suggest mixing a bunch of nutes it the soil. looks like your plant needs a flush not more nutes..

bkgmitts19,

Yeah, I got problems. started with MGMC, got a progressive yellowing from bottom upwards. Transplanted(rootball wash) to organic sandy loam from a raspberry patch. Used to do outside growing, had good results in those soils. Indoor is a different beast. Plant is not quite as yellow as it looks, cheap camera. Fed once with a weak manure tea. Seems to be helping a bit. Got a stronger brew I plan to use today.

Here's the blow by blow thread I opened in the plant hospital if you're interested.

A plant already stressed in indoor life has a very small chance outside but you might wanna start from scratch... invest a little money in your set up... it doesnt have to be fancy just clean and simple.. start will some fresh soil, do a little research any ques just ask I'm here to help..

bk,

If you're still following this thread, 1 more question on oatmeal. Have you tried it with just oatmeal in the tea? Mulling over whether this might be useful in flower. I'm hoping to get to flower someday, maybe not with my current plant though.

And thanks for helping us newbs.

It can be easy.... Too much info, or not enough makes it a bitch. Once you have the right soil, just drop them in, water & walk away. Don't give up.

pockits,

That's pretty fine news, if your inclined, feel free to post your before/after pictures of the plant with the oatmeal treatment. Maybe we're onto something here.

well i dont think it was like a good expirament bc i did also try shit like a tiny bit of molasses in the water and boiled it with egg shells and the soil has oatmeal and worms in it so in my opinion it has to many variables and isnt very precise but ill post new ones up soon

All the good living life in the molasses was killed in boiling. I'm scared of heating my germ water in the Microwave, cause good water is alive with good stuff. I don't 'boill' eggshells, just warm water for hours. Stir Fry is good because all the enzimes is not killed, & good stuff. Same as tea's for our plants. To see how Nature does in boiling temps, see pics of Death Valley. Just my Take.
