Ty for your reply.

Yes teh soil does dry, ive left 1 day out inbetween waterings and it goes bone dry and the water just runs straight out the bottom so i do it every day , they take at least 1 ltr a day without any runoff the next 1/2 ltr generally produces runoff. the pot size is 12 ltr.

The green smell is now fading as the leaves crisp up, the buds seem to be browning a little like the leaves.

Im still a novice and learning all the time but this plant must be really finnaky as u can see in the photos the one on the right is fine.
They are in the same mix and get the same nutes.Altough i was bad with the ph level.
So, should i chop or leave and hope she hasnt been watered for 2 days and the soil os still damp and i wont water till its dryer if she stays that is.
Took a few shots ealier...have a gander

I did some transplants Sunday and Monday and all of my plants ended up with yellow tips. At first I assumed they were getting burned from the new soil, but someone at a hydro store suggested transplant shock. I have a couple super cheap pH meters that both say my soil is around 7-7.2 but I'm not sure they even work.

Anyone know if transplant shock can cause yellow tips and if there is anything you can do for shock.

You don't get yellow tips from transplant shock. Wilted leaves and other issues, but not yellow tips. Besides Transplant shock comes more from transplanting to one medium to another and outdoor planting.(Been working in a nursery since I was 12 years old....Have an idea here)

Transplant shock is a HUGE MYTH in potted container growing, the only way you shock anything is if you mangle the rootball.

Some hydro shop owners are just clueless and they need to learn how a plant works before they open their mouths....

I always put my plant outside when the weather is good. Last week, the weather changed when I was at work and the plant had been in the rain and wind for a few hours.

A few days later, leaves started to get brown spots. Is this something to worry about?

I don't use artificial lights, the plant is in a 12 L pot in seedling soil. Every week I give it a bit of liquid tomato nutes (N-P-K of 7-5-6), 30 ml dissolved in 1.5 L of water. Not all of the 1.5 L are for the plant. I water it with spring water, pH unknown.

This is my first grow ever, hope to finish it at least somewhat successful.

Anybody recognize these? Some kind of spawn attack! Had 2 different leaves infested by these eggs. The War has just been declared against all flying and moving objects near my grow room.

these are butterfly or moth eggs. remove them with your finger nail and check the rest of the plants or you'll soon have chewed leaves. otherwise no big deal, I think.

Sick Plant - Yellowing lower leaves with brown spots - Diagnosis?

Sick Plant - Yellowing lower leaves with brown spots - Diagnosis?

Anybody have any idea what's wrong with this plant? I'm thinking maybe the cooler nights that we've been having here recently could have something to do with it. My other guess would be that the ph is off? Could it need a bigger pot? Is it over watering? I'm pretty sure it's getting fed properly. My buddy is using maxibloom.

Well I dug around in there any didn't find any signs of bugs. Thank God! I'm thinking my buddy had this nestled between two other plants and it just wasn't getting enough light on the lower areas. I moved it to a real good spot now so we'll see what happens.

Yes it is spidermite, there are a few products u can use, like abactine, i use nat predators +neem and i keep them under control, they are in very dry places, it helps to have a high humidity to control them.
