compostverte Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 (edited) "dirt" from home depot ? They're short of nitrogen, but whatever you've done to correct that is too much, too late. but I hesitate to recommend feeding until we have more info. Maybe a bigger photo of the whole plant, and idea of how long it's been growing, how many times you've repotted etc .... and the nutes and how much. "organic", like "hydro" always makes my ears prick up when it's a newbie. I've been growing the easy way for 12 years now....

compostverte Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 I must not have had my glasses on when I first posted - looks like magnesium defficiency ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scribb|e Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 (edited) If you've repotted them recently, which you say that you have, they'll have plenty of nutrients in the new compost to eat. Feeding them any more will definately cause symptoms of nute-burn, which I think that your plant are showing, too. You don't need to feed your plants for a few week after you've repotted them, usually - and only feed your plants then, if they are showing you that they need it. Edit: It looks mainly like a severe N deficiency to me, which should be corrected by the new compost. Edited November 2, 2006 by Scribb|e Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vyral Posted November 2, 2006 Author Share Posted November 2, 2006 what are some good types of soil for planting, cause i have tried a bunch and had little success Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scribb|e Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 A lot of people do well with just 'Multi Purpose Compost' from the supermarket. It's cheap, too. See if you find some of that, and try it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
compostverte Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 Check out some Gardening forums (not cannabis specific). Isn't "Peters" the serious horticulturalists' brand in the US ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest scarfaceshady Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 what are some good types of soil for planting, cause i have tried a bunch and had little success i use moss peat and perlite 70/30 ratio which has absolutly no nutrients in whatsoever to begin with as i like to start fresh so i know what ive fed them right from day 1, and also i get a really nice textured and really fluffy and airated grow medium and i am not likely to stop using it unless i ever go hydro as it seems to be best for the strains i grow anyway hope you get the right stuff for yours mate scarface Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scribb|e Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 When you say 'soil' - you don't mean actual soil from outside, do you? I presume that you're reffering to purely compost? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Lazlo Woodbine Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 If you have just repotted I definitely wouldn't give any more nutes ... Looks like the tips of all the leaves are brown .... could well be too much already ... Laz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
