Kinda hard to tell if its just the bottom leaves or the whole plant that's effected. If its just the first couple leaves on the bottom it could be normal. If theyre all starting to look like that then its probably magnesium. If the whole plant is pale its probably lack of food in general. My "widow" is looking great. GorrilaSeedBank freebie?

Its the middle one

Well mines killing it so far. I really think it looks like a good production style plant. All the branches have reached the top already without topping and it seems like its going to be very sturdy. I dont know whats going on with yours but id guess it has something to do with inexperience and not the seed itself.

yeah your plants look mint lol very nice how long you been growing?

Ive been growing five years. Ive discovered that the plants are super easy to grow. All you have to do is give them everything they want :lol:

No seriously theyre a cinch. Its all about making them comfortable. Good soil (I prefer soiless) good air flow, good a/c, good lights, and the right feeding shedule and knowing what goes in. A ppm meter is a must have. I stick with synthetic nutrients because who has time for organic food to break down for the plant to absorb it? The biggest thing about growing is that it takes money to make money. If you rely on the grow for cash your going to fail because you constantly have to dump cash into it. Most people fail because their cheap. Lights too expensive? Nope, get the best. Cant afford an a/c or dehu? Then dont grow. Dont have extra money for bug spray? Your peckered. But if you do it all right, youll be one happy guy smoking some great meds.

what nute do you use and what would you recomend

Alienwidow · Jan 8, 2016

It looks pretty good. Im leaning twards magnesium but its always good to get a little info first. What brand of soil is it? And what have you been feeding it and how much, how often. Also is the light adequate because sometimes yellowing leaves at the bottom can be because of not enough lit getting to them?

scott smith · Jan 8, 2016

the soil is just your basic cheap stuff from a hardware store iv got a cupboard full of nutes but the cal mg im using is plant magic and the rest is mostly canna iv added a bit of epsom salt and blood fish bone meal to the soil and my lighting iv got 4 600 watt cooltube but im only running 2 of them coz im only in veg week 5-6 i was thinking magnesium my self going of what iv researched but iv giv the plants plenty of it and sprayed with epsom salts iv tryd everything and now maybe i think im overfeeding tryin to sort the problem out my temps are perfect 26 and my humidity is perfect for veg 55-60%

what u cant see in the pictures is the very bottom leaves the edges wer going brown and rustys

Plants look small still for those containers. Have you been getting runoff? If no, dont think you need to be having all kinds of runoff, you just need to remember that all the fertilizer is staying in the root zone. So you dont have to feed that much.

You could be right about the over feeding, theres burnt tips, and what COULD be burnt leaves. Usually regular 2 part canna specific nutrient line ups have super high nitrogen amounts and youll see dark green almost black leaves and clawing on the top leaves. What is the npk values of the fertilizer you are using? It could be over feeding the p or k which makes sense with burnt lower leaves.

scott smith · Jan 9, 2016

ive just been top dressing my soil with worm castings rock dust bone meal etc because i dident get very good results with canna im maybe thinking just straight ph'd water for a week or 2 and im guna buy a bottle of medi one to keep it simple until i start a fresh crop and even then just feed the medi one when the plant look like they need it i think iv over thought it and try to many different things to get rid of the problem lol rookie mistake i no
