Mazar Drooping leaves

S

seanpferguson

i have some Mazar I-sharif seedlings underway. The leaves starting curling under. theyre pretty dark green. theyre in 75% coco 25% perlite. i was feeding up to 10ml cns17 + 5ml calmag+ +3/4ml greenfuse. every 12 hrs. i cut back to 5ml cns17 + 5ml calmag+ + 3/4greenfuse. every 12 hrs.
its mainly one im having the problem with. but others are starting to follow suit. also i use fossil fuel once a week. lemme know what you think
ill post some pics but theyll be awful quality. :1help:

well i don't know how you water but you should keep them Just moist it is easy to over water. you might want to flush with about a gallon of water and let it almost dry out if you let the leaves droop slightly you know their thirsty=) letting them get slightly dry between waterings promotes root growth as the plant relises it needs to search deeper..

also watch it at night i don't know if your aware they droop when they sleep=p but at 12 days old their leaves might not be big enough to droop noticeably so you might want to disregard what i said about drooping till your plants are abit older. lets see some pics!=)

sorry i missed that nice looking size, very dark green. do the pictures do justice on that shade of green? good thing you cut back the nutrition. look for abit lighter shade of green. check out some of my pics notice the green shades they couldn't be happier

theyre dark but thats the worst one. the others are starting to go south but like i said i cut back. i just dont like the curling down part... my guess is just water and feed less after a good flush. trial and error.

If they are the freebie Mazars, mine have been ultra water fussy, they will droop constantly, they only really have their leaves up and look happy when they are about 12 hours away from being bone dry, but they have grown fine and look great.
Far and away the most water sensitive plant I've grown so far.
(I will wait to water all my plants till the pots are light as feathers, so it's not overwatering, in my case)

wait how can you say it's not overwatering if you let them dry out i doubt he does that..?

No, not him, me, mine appear overwatered most of the time and there not is what I'm saying, so I wanted to give my expierence with them, basically that they can appear droopy and over watered when they are not.
They almost always look like they have just been watered, or need to be watered, even though they're fine.
