Listen guys, to all the ppl who helped me out thank you so much. I just don't understand why some of you ppl have to be so rude to me and put stupid shit on my thread. If you guys posted something and needed help I would help you.
I just wish you guys would stop saying how much I post and shit like that. Seriously how big of a deal is it.

All you guys have to do is not reply to my thread if you hate me. So just stop acting so immature and let the nice ppl on this site help me out.

With that said, I still have to order my nutrients and it seems like the plant is getting more yellow everyday. If I don't get nutes soon will it die, because I def don't want her to die. I'm just wondering how long the plant can stay alive because it will take a couple weeks prolly for the nutes to get to my house. Do you guys think I will be able to make her all better. Thanks again to all the ppl who helped me.

I wish I had some fox farm soil but it's too expensive. I know what you mean when you say your not expecting much so it's kind of an experiment right?
Also miracle gro is a cheap man's way of growing. I mentioned I grew huge plants with no problems using mg. Thanks for the reply buddy. Did you look at the plants I posted at the top of this page? Those are my plants.

Ahh it is pretty expensive but worth it for sure but it's only like $15? But for miracle grow, that's pretty good results. I heard it isn't properly balanced for mj. Oh ya def an experiment to try out my grow box for my auto seeds i just got ( can't wait!!) here is another pic of an experiment, it's a clone i grew in a 16oz cup with no nutrients.

There's actually nothing wrong with Miracle Grow. The problem is people are, in general, stupid. They don't read directions and even if they do they don't follow them.

Miracle grow was made to treat large areas. It contains the same exact NPK as many other "high end" nutrients with one major difference: it's about 10 times stronger.

It wasn't made to fertilize one small plant as much as it was to do an entire garden, so one must adjust accordingly. It's that simple.

Example:

Fox Farm Tiger Bloom vs. Miracle Grow Tomato Formula:

NPK 2 - 8 - 4.........................18 - 18 - 21

So, looking at that you look at the mixture ratio that Fox Farm recommends. They use 2 - 3 teaspoons per gallon to get that ratio. Miracle Grow uses 1 Tablespoon to get it's ratio. FYI: 3 teaspoons = 1 tablespoon.

So, if you wanted to get roughly the same ratio from Miracle grow, you would have to divide by 2.5. So instead of using a tablespoon of the MG per gallon, you'd only use 1.25 teaspoons.

But people don't bother reading and doing a little basic math, so they just use that big-assed scoop, figure the more the merrier, and burn their plants slap to hell when they use MG.

That's really all there is to it. It's peoples blatant stupidity, not any Miracle Grow product, that does the damage.

If I get my nutes in the mail within a week do you think she will be fine when I start feeding her?

For someone who "obviously knows what they are doing". You sure don't have a clue what you are doing bro.

The answer is it depends on the metabolism of your plant and what's left in your medium. If leaves yellow, they probably won't recover, but new leaves will grow to replace them once the plant gets proper nutrition. As long as it's not too far into flowering.

Very nicely put. I personally don't know much about it but clearly you do. I thought it was more so missing something not that isn't properly broken down (dosage wise), that is very good information to know. I knew using the Miracle Grow Perlite was okay but I didn't know using the soil and supplements were. That is something I will def look into, thanks @TacoMac . Think you can lead me to the right direction? Most of my information is from www.growweedeasy.com but they say stay away from MG. Thanks!

Well I'll be damned your right. I guess when I looked up fox farm soil 5 years ago I looked at the price wrong lol.
I would actually get the fox farm soil because it is cheap and pretty much made for mj. Thanks for the price check lol. I'll tell you man, ppl underestimate how good miracle gro can grow plants. I think if you got two of the same plants and used mg for one and fox farm soil for the other, you wouldn't be able to tell the difference.

That's a coincidence about growing in a beer cup because in the beginning of this grow I tried growing a plant in a beer cup. I've seen pics of whole plants grown in beer cups. It turned out to be a male though.

Remember that auto plants don't like to be transplanted so just put the seed right into your pot. Your using a 1 or 2 gallon pot right? That's around the right size to use imo.
That is a nice little plant, it's growing weird cuz it's pointed all to one side but that doesn't matter, keep up the good work buddy.

Ya your def. right on that one buddy. It's nice that one person believes in miracle gro. Maybe my plant made it through the veg stage without nutes because of how strong the soil is.
This is a good thing because now I don't need veg nutes if I don't want to.

But ya your right about this subject, if more ppl used mg they would see how nice plants can turn out. Thanks man.

Jesus, I feel like I have to put up pics of my plants I grew 5 years ago again just to prove to you that I know how to grow.
The thing is, I know a lot about growing. If you put the line of fox farm nutes in front of me I would know exactly how to use them. This thread is about will I have enough time to make my plant healthy again.
It's not a thread about how to use nutrients properly. I'm not being a dick or anything if that's what you think. But ya I just wanna get an opinion on whether my plant can become healthy again after my nutes come.

TacoMac · Oct 1, 2016

I'll be taking my week 5 flower pics of my two plants tomorrow. I'll post them on this thread. Everything I used to grow them both is MG. All of it. Soil, nutrients, perlite. All MG products. I spent a grand total of 40 bucks on this grow including the two seeds. I'm probably going to net around 7 to 8 ounces. (Probably more...I always estimate conservatively.)

I might not take some ppl's advice but that's something that happens to everyone. I really don't care what you say because a lot of nice ppl are helping me on this site taco.

Oh and maybe you didn't notice but I am having absolutely no problems with my plant. It's completely healthy and growing fine. So I don't have "so very many problems". That doesn't even make sense.

Oh really ed ....what about your new threads you recently started wondering if your plants guna make it .......you have a serious issue taking advice ed

You're mistaken. I've not created a new thread in quite a while, weeks in fact. I've never used the stuff either. Ever. I suggest you stop drinking the cheap beer and pay closer attention. After all, it's better to be thought a complete fool rather than put it in writing and remove all doubt.

Considering it´s an auto in bloom i personally would try and get it some nutes right away.

Stores sell orchid-nutes and souch, a light feed until you get your proper nutes would atleast lessen that stunt.
Some even use urine, can´t vouch for it and dont know the ratios though.

Man, this is a test grow, that's why the plant looks so shitty. I have to make sure I can grow a full plant without having smell issues. So this grow is pretty much a bullshit grow to see if I can keep growing. Did you ever see the plants I used to grow?
