Hi fellow growers! this is my thread here :)

I really need a guidance from all of you experts.
I used to have 4 seedling, but I stupidly spray fertilizer onto it and in less than a day they all dried up. I quickly flush them with a lot of water, but sadly only one survive. it survive only from 2 half dried leaf.

as it recovers from major damage, it grows a healthy leafs.

as day goes by I notice that the leaf is turning from dark green to lime green as you can see.

new leaf still grow, but it should not grow this slow.

what I understand from reading some of the thread is that my plant is lacking of nutrients.
so yesterday I try to dilute this fertilizer with a lot of water, as I am afraid to kill the seedling for the 2nd time.20150315_164700.jpg
this is also the fertilizer that kill the other 3 seedling as I sprayed my seedling before.

from the problem that I have, what do you guys suggest on what should I do?

Why spraying them?

Also just feed nutes 1/4 pf the strength recommended BUT after 3 weeks of germination. temps low 70's humidity 55 % Max. You can use some cal mag and silica, u can spray the silica on it once a week. Silica promotes better health and your plant will resist more harsh temps ether r cold or hot.

It looks good but just keep an eye on her.

Never used that fertilizer.

pretty sure you can use that fertilizer, dilute with water at quarter recommended to start and pour into the soil, keep posting pics and updates and you will get some assistance along the way. where did you acquire the seeds? that one you have left could be a male and that would make for a waste of time and money.........I recommend this place for ordering seeds in the future..... http://www.herbiesheadshop.com/

This is a seedling. Stop fucking with it. Stop feeding it, Stop spraying it with shit and trying to kill it.

WATER ONLY until they look green again and never ever spray a seedling with fertiliser. And DON"T spray while the lights are on either, you'll burn the leaves. I can see this grow becoming a sharp learning curve already!!!

NO Nutrients, sprays, fertilizers..etc. use a nice soil medium. water, and light/sun. And let mother nature take over.
The only thing I like to use on the small seedlings is earth juice catalyst until their bigger

I agree it would probably be was easier to get good soil and just water it than trying to find good nutrients in china
(我以前也试过了在中国种大麻但太难找好的那个nutrients,你因该找好一点的土地后来就浇水不就行了吗?)加油!我祝你好运!

I thought spraying them will stimulate their growth. as the new leafs grow after damage I notice that the green leafs turning lime green slowly. Do I spray the cal mag and silica on the leafs or the soil?

thanks for the info budy! :)

Don't use the foliar fertilizer anymore. What kind of soil are you using?
yeap, I just put the fertilizer away. I use organic compost potting soil, mix with a little bit perlite and some dried fern so the soil will not be too packed and still moist inside.

I will keep updating with new picture :)

You feed em silica and the cal mag, read the instruction on the back and go either 1/4 - or 1/2 the strenght that the label tells you. =). Yo ucan spray them with silica as well, but if you do that read the instruction as the amount when spraying it is the minimal of all the feeding instructions on the label you will see.

If you spray them do it 10 minutes after lights are off, just hit em a couple of times on top and under twice a week. pretty simple, the cal mag u feed it with ur regular PH water =)


Good luck amigo =)

Hello my Chinese friend. Do you propose to foliar feed this plant only?
hi! truthfully I don't know yet. as other growers suggest water only for seedling, I will not use fertilizer until my seedling gets better.

do you have any suggestion on what kind of fertilizer should I use later on?

but do you recommend me to use the fertilizer now? how long do I have to wait till I can notice the result? as in change colour from lime green to dark green again. I will take another picture tomorrow :) Thank you my dear friend. actually I get the seed from weed that I bought, that's why I am gambling my time with this seed only :(. I live in south east asia region, so I am pretty sure this is a sativa strain. I would like to buy some seeds from the web, but where I live, smoking and planting cannabis is illegal. that's why I am afraid to buy from internet.

I know.. it's just, I always feel that I don't feed them enough nutes and I think that is why the seedling turns lime green.
do you know why it turns light green? and if I feed them water only, how long till it gets dark green again?

yeap, Right now I use water only once every 2 day. I live in a tropical country where the sun can be really hot. do you think that cause the seedling to turn lime green?
