THE PLANT ISN"T DEAD!

you can still recover don't kill her! Try transplanting her outside and see her recover wonderfully.

I started with soil that had time released nuts but then when i moved into the bucket i had to get some soil from my back yard.
In the mail today i got 5 fem Diesel Ryders and then for free:
1 fem barney's farm blue cheese
1 fem barney's farm red diesel
1 fem green house white widow
1 fem DNA sharksbreath
1 fem r. privada cole train
I was wondering how long the seeds will keep cus im not going 2 be able to grow the dr's for 6 weeks and which of the free seeds will go from seed to bud fastest cus i dont have much time this summer.

Some soil from my back yard that seems to have some clay in it.... and a 250watt cfl 6500

here are some old pictures so you guys can see how weird this grow was. I pretty much mad a few mistakes but im too lazy to tell the whole story
soil from your backyard has perlite in it?

Depending on the packaging your beans came in, as in breeder packs inside a thick heavy double seal Zip-Loc bag that would be enough to keep your beans more than safe waiting to be used. If they are not that sealed you might want to put them in something that seals tightly and keeping them in a refrigerator is a very good idea. Well sealed and left in a refrigerator, you could pop them a year from now and most likely get as good of a germ ratio.

In the nursery business ones that grow from seed will routinely place seeds in a refrigerator for two weeks or more before planting. They believe it better replicates the winter to spring transition. I know some nurseries that deal in more northern species of plants/trees/bushes where a cold winter is the norm and they will freeze their seeds for a month or two and then move them to a refrigerator and then plant them, again attempting to better duplicate what the seeds would have encountered in nature, in conditions they adapted/evolved to best deal with and if possible use to their advantage.

The part of needing to find some supplemental soil from the backyard might have been a half-blessing in disguise. You said; “I started with soil that had time released nuts but then when i moved into the bucket i had to get some soil from my back yard.” After that you listed your beans. If I took things correctly the soil you just mentioned is for the beans that just arrived. Is that correct?

If so the time release fertilizer/nutrient soil was a poor choice to make. Depending on genetics seeds will have roughly 3 to 4 weeks of nutrients in them for the new seedling to live off of. I have read the time for some strains to be as short as 2 weeks and as long as 6, but whatever the period of time the new seedlings have all the fertilizer they need and normally all they can handle.

With time release fertilizer in your soil you will be fertilizing brand new seedlings. That is a very good way to fry them with ferts. They already have what is needed and what can be used, for some fairly short period of time, and then you are about to start them off feeding them, or so it seemed from what I read. If I am in error … ignore all of this.

The point is that while backyard soil is usually not a fantastic choice unless you were going to totally change soils, if you used enough backyard soil, and mixed it with your original soil and not just used it to top off a pot or three, maybe you used enough to ‘dilute’ the time release fertilizer to where you will not fry the kids.

You always want to control your plant’s nutrients. If a problem arises you can respond to it quicker and sometimes easier. You know what they are getting and when and in what amounts and you can chart that and try increasing and seeing what strains you can push ferts on and which you have to spoon feed like a baby, and you can do what is best rather than relying on some amount or another of fertilizer that still remains in the soil at any given time, and it releasing as it feels rather than when you know it would be best.

Just a bit to ponder on.

(sigh.....) my plant just keeps getting more retarded. Unfortunately i am at school and i have my brother take care of her. I had painters in my house and he had to unplug her and close the closet door. So it looks like that made the leaves turn yellow. What should i do, pull them off? Cut them off? Leave them be?

Have you tried posting in the plant problems section or checking out the stickies there? I'm sure you'd get a better response. I personally would just leave them, but someone else would probably be able to help you more.
