Issue with my plants

[Hircine]

Okay well I have 3 plants all started from seed, 2 of which I started in miracle gro (big mistake) All planted at the same time outdoors.

One of my plants is doing very well, pretty big Indica dominant plant, the problem with it at the moment is that its first set of leaves on the bottom are shriviled up but the rest of it is fine. This is also occuring on the other plants.

My other two plants are very small, sort of yellow, I transplanted them from the miracle gro to better soil and they appear to be doing a bit better aside from the problem above, and fed them some plant food with nutes in it.

I will update this with pics later, but atm any help is appreciated.

I personally would transplant into larger containers with fresh QUALITY soil. Good luck.

Looks male to me, gonna wait a week to be sure.





These two look good aside from the white spots, and the lower leaves which I just removed, they were brown and looked dead.

Here's an earlier pic of the biggest one, not up to date:

They look unhappy and malnourished...that's why I think you neeed fresh soil with its nutes already in place and the plant will take what it needs rather than you trying to guess and adding stuff. I don't knpw what the ph of your water is.....what is it if I may ask?

I don't at ALL like the spots on two plants. Do you see bugs anywhere on the plant or in the soil? Pests neeed to be gotten rid of asap. Is it a fungus.....like powdery mildew or such? I also worry about what is most likely a poor root system from the MG soil you started them in. If the root system is not strong and healthy then nutrient uptake will be poor no matter how great your soil.

good luck.

I transferred them when they were pretty small, and I'm not really messing around with PH and shit, this is just a first time grow messing around. I did see some white bug on there (white fly?) I've been using bottled water and tap water sometimes.

I think the soil is fine and I don't wanna risk damaging them during a transplant, maybe after I get rid of that one plant cause I think its a male I will change the soil for one of the plants and see if it helps. I dunno about fungus and stuff either. The plants actually improved alot since the transplant and since I fed em.

Its kind of hard to control pests as it is outdoors, there's no sign of insects eating away at the leaves though and I can only check on them at certain times as the people I am living with dunno about it either.

Well best of luck. Growing with the idea you just don't want to deal with things and
'whatever" just ain't my type of growing but Im sure someone will come along with an answer you like better.

Again, best of luck.

That's not my attitude at all, I have no means of testing the PH of my water or anything, this is just my first time that's all, and I've already transplanted those plants twice, I do not want them to die. I'm trying to do anything I can to make sure they are healthy as they are my only girls. Right now I'm just gonna wait and see if the problem clears up by next week, because I believe the plant feed (with nutes in it) helped them alot. The soil is fine, the residue on the top of the soil is just the plant food being dispersed over the top of the soil.

Also I never "tried to guess and add stuff" I read up on the issues and signs of nutrient problems and then added some after those two showed signs. The big plant (probably male) needed no nutes and was fine without them.

How much good...direct...sun do they get? They look shaded...not a good thing.

 

[Hircine]

Not quite sure but they do get a bit, I only have them there because they are concealed. I'm going to move them to an even shadier area while I am away for 5 days.

the plants look fine to me(besides maybe the white spots, which could be pest damage, check the underside of leaves), theyre green and growing right?? they dont look unhealthy, but they could always be taken up to the next level and be thriving.
its your first grow, keep it simple, and good job.
transplant to quality soil next transplant fersure, and get sum well rounded nutrients, with macro and micro's high particularly in N, for the veg and you'll be set. sounds like you already got nutes actually, that'll hopefully green them up and accelerate growth.
first grows are always fun

edit: maybe get sum superthrive, not organic, but just use during first half of veg, its root hormones and b vit, will make roots very ressiliant to stress, and accelerate growth. i always see improvements to my plants when stressed after using superthrive.

 

[Hircine]

I'd like for them to be smaller anyways, easier to conceal, I have to worry about them being seen as I would not like to be caught considering they are on my property.

I'm gonna top the two suspected females and cut a few branches so it grows out more.

I was also wondering if it would be possible to graft a branch onto the stem of a male plant after getting rid of it and having it grow. I'd like to have another plant but I don't have cloning solution and stuff.

 

[Hircine]

That big plant was male for sure, I took off all of the leaves and tossed it. My other plants are doing alright, they don't look sick or anything anymore.

 

[Hircine]

Okay so now another one of em is male, I'm gonna pull it. All I have now is one female and I overwatered it by accident, just a tad droopy but it should recover.

I'm gonna plant more seeds, I don't care if they'll be smaller, just need them to produce a small amount of bud.

 

[habeeb]

never pull off a leaf, let it leech out everything

looks like they need to be fed, other then that they look good

 

[Hircine]

They both grew a bit more. The female has two points growing out from where I topped it atleast, so that's some progress. I'm germinating some more seeds as I have plenty to waste.

 

[Hircine]

I really wish I could get my camera working, I moved a plant to a riskier yet higher light area, close to the front of my house on the side, can't really see it from the street or sidewalk, only worried concerned about the neighbor.

Anyways one of the stems is bent a little bit, its still hanging on fair enough so I'm gonna leave it alone. I'm gonna try keeping it alive anyways, I'll be happy if I get a bud off the plant atleast, next year I am more hopeful for success and I will do everything right from the beginning.

I also have 4 more seeds I planted so hopefully they'll get big enough before flowering time starts.

if the breakage is not rotting, i've seen people litterly use band-aids and string its worked in cases when I would just laugh at people but god damnit it works.

It still looks sickly, but there is some nice new growth, seems like its entering flowering stage, but its only like 4 or 5 inches tall. I need to get a picture of it so I can see what's wrong with it.

And sadly my seedlings must of been eaten by an animal or something because I watered them around 4:00 and at about 7:00 I discovered that they were gone and one was laying disconnected from the stem. Too late to plant more.
