Now i know with these kind of.problem diagnosing things info is needed but from past experience I've never measures ppm used nutes temps anything like that...yeah i know. Just put a pot on the windowsill plant use normal tap water and soil from my garden. This isnt an option so I've gone to indoor growing. So from pics i was hoping you can tell.me.whats wrong? Im not.hoping for a definite but if i can get rough idea that'll be great. And if Shea a lost cause or not?

I dunno just likes kinda "lifeless" really. Leaf tips particularly around the top have gone from yellow to white. And the leaves are kinda droopy dry and brittle sounds like rustling paper when picked up.

Info i have;
Easy bud (auto flower)
Temp: 28.1 c
Humidity: 49.2
Nutes: tomato feed not measuring giving just a little...yep
Lights: 4x 65 watt CFLs

So yeah is it overwatering? Burn? Defincency? Top most leaves tips have gone white whereas they werent couple days ago and apologies for the shitty waulity of PIC cams fucked.

it's hard to tell from those pics, not very clear. the symptoms make me think iron lockout, probably from your soil being too damp too long. my advice with those pics to work from is to buy some decent quality soil, some perlite, mix it about 70-30, put it in a bigger pot, and buy a cheap ph meter. you can guess at nutes with some experience, but ph is hard to guess at. you may be lucky and have well water that stays pretty much constant, i have city water that changes throughout the week, depending on how long its been since they last treated the water.
let your plant dry out good between waterings, you want your pot to get very light before you water again. fhen you first repot it, before you water it, feel the weight. you want it to be that light before you water again

I can't really tell anything from the photos... When cloning, the cuttings use up the chlorophyll as they try to grow roots... This turns the leaves yellow and, if you wait long enough, eventually the leaves can turn white. Since it appears your plants are receiving insufficient nutrients, you will need to figure out why. (And fast) You need to make sure the fertilizer strength is appropriate for the tiny roots of your plant... It's possible the plants are locked out from the nutrients in which case you would need to flush with straight water... I've only encountered nutrient lockout once... After the flush, the plant ended up returning to a normal grow cycle... Best of luck!

Thanks alot for all your help, from your replies and watching a ton of YouTube vids i think i can put it down to over watering and overfeeding, got to eager and blitzed her too quickly im gonna transplant her into a bigger pot tomorrow so hopefully that'll dry her out some least and thanks for not roasting me haha

Definitely over watered. Make sure pot has drainage holes and don't water until the top inch of soil is dry. Or you can lift pot before watering and after you will feel the difference in weight.

seems a bit big for the container your using doesn't it ? could it be root bound ?

Yeah, well i think it was rootbound, no roots.coming out of the drainage holes but they were hugging the sides and there was like only a quater of dirt.left at the bottom so wouldn't Have taken long just surprised how quick the roots have grown only been in there about 3 maybe 4 weeks , just like an hour ago i put her in a bigger pot so hopefully see an improvement

....the pkit thickens. I asked my girl if she's done anything with the plant like fed it for some reason or whatever but no. She's been turning the lights of when she goes to work! Which is a few hours at a time didn't think to tell me. Think an inconsistent light pattern may have stressed it yeah start over for me

No need to restart over when your plant is in veg .. if you can fix the issue eventually it will catch back.. plant may just be stunt for a few days. Then let it veg for as long as you would like

I don't even start over if the main stalk snaps from the weight of the flowers... That's what Gorilla Tape is for! I agree with the other posters... You can learn much more from your failures than your successes! Best of luck!

Ah OK thanks but i dunno coz its not a photoperiod its an auto flowering and from what i understand they grow on a fixed life span so i don't think i can really.keep it in veg till it picks up. Im a newb so im not saying that as fact more question

If it's an auto you may be right about the lost time impacting flower yield... I don't grow many autos but I had a Northern lights blue that my daughter stepped on around day 6... I had to re-pot below the unfixable bent stem and I thought it would effect yield... I ended up getting a QP from it. If you have plant limits you may be right about starting over... If not, what do you have to lose? Running it through could make you a better grower... Best of luck!
