Pinpoint the problemo!!!

GREETINGS!!!

MY NAME IS "BLANK" AND I HAVE BEEN HAVING A PROBLEM WITH MY BABY, PLANT IN FOUR WEEKS OF FORCED FLOWERING FROM A XX420 SEED FROM ONTARIO'S BEST SEED BANK. I'M AN AMATEUR/BROKE GROWER WHO GROWS IN HIS BEDROOM RIGHT NEXT TO HIS BED, SO I MAKE DUE WITH WHAT I HAVE. A 30 W EZ GROW HYDRO KIT LIGHT, AND SOME MILAR FOIL TO REFLECT THE LIGHT. I MAKE A GALLON OF WATER SOLUBLE FERT EVERY WEEK. I FAILED AT HYDROPONIC GROWING SO I WENT SOIL THIS TIME, AND I BOUGHT THIS RESEVOIR TYPE OF POT FROM WAL-MART THAT HOLDS WATER AND CONTINUES FEEDING THE PLANT FOR UP TO 2 WEEKS, BUT IT ONLY LAST A WEEK WITH MY THIRSTY XX420 PLANT.I USE A DROP OF DROP-A-GAL SUPERTHRIVE, ORGANIC IGUANA JUICE, BIG BUD, AND SOMETIMES PIRAHNA IN A FOLIAR SPRAY. I TRY AND MAKE SURE TO FOLLOW STRICT DIRECTIONS, AND I MEASURE THE PROPER AMOUNT THAT CAN GO INTO A GALLON, USUALLY TAKE ME AN HOUR TO MAKE MY IGUANA/BIG BUD MIXTURE DUE TO DIFFERENT MEASUREMENTS ON THE LABEL... I SUCK AT MATH. I'VE BEEN USING IGUANA JUICE PRETTY MUCH THE WHOLE TIME, AND I ADDED BIG BUD ABOUT A MONTH AND A HALF AGO. I POUR THE MIXTURE ON TOP OF THE SOIL, AND ADD IT TO THE RESEVOIR EVERY THURSDAY. MY PLANT IS IN IT'S 4TH-5TH WEEK OF FLOWERING, AND THE FLOWERS LOOK PRETY GOOD. THE PROBLEM IS THE FAN LEAVES. WHEN MY PLANT STARTED FLOWERING, THE FAN LEAVES STARTED SHRIVELING AND DYING STARTING AT THE BOTTOM. I JUST TREATED IT FOR MAGNESIUM DEFICIENCY BY MAKING A FOLIAR SPRAY WITH HALF TEASPOON OF EPSOM SALT PER 36 OUNCE, AND I PUT A DROP OF SUPERTHRIVE IN IT AS WELL. I HOPE THIS WORKS. IDK WHAT THE PROBLEM IS, IF IT AIN'T MAGNESIUM DEFICIENCY THEN I'M THINKING OVER FERTILIZATION. IT CAN'T BE NITROGEN, BECAUSE FROM WHAT I SEE LACK OF NITROGEN TURNS THE LEAVES A BRIGHT YELLOW ALMOST. PLEASE VIEW THESE PHOTOS, AND SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP ME!!!! I WANT MY BUD!!!

Hey man i'd check your ph cause when you load up on nutes the ph can easily go out of balance. plus it looks very overwatered. oh and change your font colour lol it took me like 5 minutes to read.

Thanx man. I'ma take your advice, starting with the font color, lol! Do you know of any place i can get ph papers, or can i get them only online, and with organic growing, how would you change the ph? Also, how can you tell if it is over watered? I thought about that as well, it also might be my light was too close. In this stage of flowering, how close should i put my light. It's not a strong, light, its just a single 30 w hydro glow light with no reflector. Right now i have it at about a foot away, but i had it at 7 inches.

lol hey umm i'm not really sure where you would find ph papers as i reside in the canada lol. if you have a local pool supplies store they'll have them there. as for organic ph adjusting i'd check the organics section of the site. overwatering is really easy to point out, when the leaves droop down when they don't usually its more than likely overwatering. i always keep my light about 10 inches away from my babe

Thanx bro.

no prob bud. let me know how she does.

This is my first offcial plant that hasn't died. Lol! I want my fruits!!! I tried hydro several times, but just couldn't keep up with the maintenance and i failed miserably.

ey man N def is natural furing flowering and STOP foilar feeding its not good for ur buds causes mold

? Yeah, I rarely foliar feed doh. Like once a month.

Help me!!! Lol!

dont get ph paper. get at least the liquid ph tester it`s only abou 7 bucks

yeah bonz' idea is probably better. i've never had to deal with ph so i'm not a great authority on it haha

bit me in the ass once and only once then i bought ph tester. must have for nutes

Don't mean to be harsh. Your killing it with kindness. To many ferts, which are probably toxic in your soil & I would guess your pH is out of range. You can buy a cheap pH meter at Walmart, Lowes or Home Depot. You want to be between 6 & 6.8

You need to leach out your soil, if your pot is a gallon, pour three gallons of room temp (chlorine free) water throught it. Then don't feed or water it for a week. Plus it needs more light, sit it below a window & let it suck up some free Sunlight. It will add vigor to your plant & some weight. Do not beleve the more is better thing with ferts. All that high NPK shit being pushed is killing plants left and right.

Most new growers over feed and over water. Try feeding weakly - weekly next go round. Plus if you are going to grow in a pot, get a bigger one. More soil, means more room for error.

Try an all natural grow. You may be suprised how well you do. I read this thread in the Organics room, called the three amazing shits. You should check it out. The dude who posted it, seems to really know his Shit. LOL

Hey coolerthanyou. I like the avatar man. Just watched Suicide Kings the other night and loved it. What's that dudes name ? Sorry to get off subject.

The guys name is christopher walken, and that is a scene from saturday night live circa 1998, the episode where christopher walken played blue oyster cults manager, adn they made fun of the fact that don't fear the reaper has too much cow bell because they're manager kept wantin more, and will farrel was the cow bell dude and was being obnoxious with it in their faces and shit. Lol! But yeah, i'm good with ph, but what can i use to balance it with organic growth? Does my plant still have hope? Tell em what u think. I'ma try adn leach it next.

Haha thanks catincombs. and great summary saintc. one of my fav snl skits. but anyways how's your girl doing? has she gotten any worse? if her ph is fine then like catincombs said give her a good flush.

After i tried magnesium, it still seems the same, no worse, no better. Fan leaves are still dying, but the inner leaves and stems are still growing and as green as lettuce. I haven't had a chance ot get the ph tester because i'm currently doing some major job hunting. My next move is to probably flush it and start from scratch. I just have to wait for all my nutes to be soaked up from the resevoir thats in this pot, make my girl a lil thirsty again, and then give her some bottled purified water for a couple weeks, adn then slowly introduce nutes again for a couple weeks, and then leach again becaue it will hopefully almost be harvest time. I'll take pics every two weeks and keep yall posted. On a lighter note, my bnn mushrooms from thailand in my ez shroom kit finally started growing after months of waiting!!!

Baby mushrooms are cute man...
