Hello everybody!
I need some advice within the next hour or so before i leave my house, but i need to figure out what is wrong with one of my plants.
Quite a lot of the bottom leaves turned yellow/lifeless and one had dried uo on the tips and in the middle of the leaf.

I have been feeding the plant 6 litres of water with 24ml BioGrow and 6ml BloomBastic.
It has rained a few times since which has provided a kind if semi-watering.

About 5 days ago the bottom leaves started going yellow, which i thought was normnal as they werent getting enough light, but then it quickly spread over 2 days.

Please help me out my fellow brothers and sisters!

Peace! :weed::peace:

Just the bucket, but obviously some roots have gone through the holes in the bottom.

That plant is going yellow because it too is almost near the end of flower, so seeing as i STILL havent seen any pistils to indicate it is a female, i know its not that.

Is it lacking Nitrogen?

If its not ph I'd say check for bugs had some started that looked like that spead quick ended up being spidermites they suck the nutrients first I thought it was ph ruled that out then nuts wasn't that either by the time I noticed the mites was too late they move quick

Ok, i have just checked my ph, using the old school 3 drops in a vial of water test.
Ph was around 8, London water! Fucking hell, never knew the water was so hard here! Might explain why i get dry skin on my lower back!
I have brought it down as much as i can with my old school test kit.
Added 1.5ml of SuperThrive into about 5lites of water.

This is what the leaves look like today, will take pictures again tomorrow, so hopefully we can find out what the issue is!

Also, why hasnt the ph issue affected my other 2 plants? Or maybe they are just a little more hardy when it comes to high pH water?


Thanks for the help guys and gals! Much appreciated! :)

Peace! :weed::peace:

Your best bet if your ph is high is to get natural down not very expensive but worth your other plants may be more resistant but doest look or sound like ph is the top problem

I will check on her tomorrow and see if anything had changed on the leaves, for better or worse.

The ground the pots have been put in, for stability as the wind kept blowing them over, is in general quite stoney and lower down quite like clay. Maybe that has something to do with it?

So feeding enough nutes, and pH has been adjusted.

Fingers crossed! :)

Peace! :peace::weed:

Ok, so my pH is somewhere between 6.5 and 7.5, best i can do!

I hit the plant again today with about 3 litres of water, with 6ml of BioGrow, 3ml BloomBastic and 1.5ml SuperThrive.

Im hoping this sorts her out, otherwise i may consider yanking her out the ground and transplanting her somewhere else, or just putting her into the ground... i dont know, im positive a good amount of root has grown out the pot and into the rocky clay like soil underneath....

Any help is greatly appreciated (+rep), she has just started to show pistils, so another 2 months before the chop i reckon, or she will just die from the cold UK temperatures in October.

They are my two little stoned guards, protecting the main head from danger! :P

Ok so your ph isn't bad at all so how often are you giving nuts and does the strength say to give compared to how much you are using when feeding them? and how much are you watering them? I will do my best to help several things it could be

I've had high PH, it did give similar symptoms to yours. One plant died because I didn't diagnose the problem early enough. It took a couple of weeks to get the PH right, the bigger the cointainer the longer time it takes to fix PH. Remember, it is the RUNOFF-PH that's important.

I am feeding the plant when it needs it.
When i see the soil has dried out and the plant is starting to droop a little, i feed it and 30 minutes later it perks back up.
Im going to feed the plant just pH's water from now on, hopefully flush out all the shit.
Only problem is, i have no way of checking the runoff...
