Yellowing droopy leaves slightly curled inwards.

Hey guys my plants are in the 5th week of flowering and they´re all doing well except of this one special kush i have..

The plant started to show yellowing of the leaves and curling inward a little bit.

I water every 3 or 4 days, give them a liter each plant.
I give them nutrients every 5 or 6 days. not too strong as far as i know.
I can´t measure my PH because i don´t have money for this tool yet!
I grow in soil with some nutrients in.
I use a 400Watt HPS
25 degrees celcius in the room.


I would love to hear from you guys so i can hopefully save my girl.

I also noticed that this plant has some stunted growth compared to my other special kush plant, this one has half the size on the buds.

I see you have lost some leaves and still have a way to go, which explains the slower growth. she actually looks a little under fed to me, but not the worst looking plant by any means.
clawing could mean a number of things, micro deficiant, salt build ups ect. i would flush her for a good 30min to 1 hour until the water is coming out clean and start a regular feeding regieme feeding every other water.
good luck!

can i flush with tap water straight out of the tap in the bathtub ?
I live in the netherlands.

I dont really have any other way to flush, i just have some bottles with water that i leave for 24 hours open so it can lose some of the bad chemicals.

I did just feed them with a little bit of nutrients and some vinegar in my water to lower the PH. I suspected the PH was perhaps too high since that's mostly the case with tap water here.
Ill consider flushing whenever i find out if i can do so with tap water out of my bathtub.

that's fine buddy it's exactly what i do here in england.
i know the water in amsterdam is fine ( if you are around that area), i was there last summer for sensation and the morning after i was drinking tons of tap water out of my apartment and actually did a search up to see the water analysis. ;)
you should be golden.

I watered like 5 hours ago, should i still flush them now or wait until they are dry

To me they look very, very thirsty. Your plants are a decent size in a large pot, and just 1 liter every 3 or 4 day's is nowhere near enough. You should water them, slowly, until the water starts to flow out of the pot, then stop. If you let the soil dry completely, any micro organisms in the soil will die. If you water till drain off, then maybe you can push it to 3 or 4 days. A moisture meter might be a good idea, and definitely a PH meter ASAP. Good luck.

yes let the medium dry out prior to flushing, you can flush with as much water as you want, you won't have to worry about over-watering like if you were to flush now, that would be over doing it.

Alright, I will wait until the medium is dry and then I'll flush it in the bathtub for a while until the water looks clean, after that i will have to give it water with feeding ontop of it right ?
Sorry for all these totally newb questions by the way.. This is just my second grow! :D

This is how she looks now! 5 days later, I flushed her with just tap water for a while, then let it dry for 3 days, I just gave her some water with flowering nutrients, pretty normal dose!

Did she improve at all.. or am I doing something wrong?

What to do with this plant ?
