IMO that plant looks locked out and hungry. Are your stems turning red? A lot of problems arise from lack of root space, root bound I mean imo.

yeah some are turning red, like i said i flushed them on tuesday and now im just waiting to buy my nutes this friday. I transfered them to bigger pots and added alot more soil so i dont think its rootspace. I think it was nute lock out. hopefully the rinse out did the job i shall start feeding her this friday. do you recommened using molases heard its like carbs for your soil?

Honestly, I never bothered with soil... checking PH, etc, until I had issues. I am running a couple of plants in soil that are doing good, but I mixed the soil fresh instead of reusing it 2 or 3 times, which is kind of cheating in a way..LOL..it removes the challenge. But seriously, I see myself using Hempy buckets mainly in the future unless outdoors, and even then.... It's passive hydro (you water by hand) and in that case you definitely need a PH meter and PPM or EC meter. You also don't have to buy lime or any of those other soil amendments if your feed is complete (using GH-good stuff and cheap). Anyway, you'll figure it out like all the rest of us are or have, but you'll probably also evolve and try different methods out of interest or boredom. If you buy those tools, you will have the ability to do it about as good as anyone else if you can read and follow directions, it's just that simple.

hmm yeah i kind of get what your saying here, the soil i used was new but who knows. Maybe it is just a stronger feeding pheno then the other plant. i still have alot to learn about this strain and this plant and grow methods. really exciting to see it happen before me and to be able to grow my own medicine thank you guys for all the help ill post pics in a few days to see if the flush out did the job.

Exactly, you need to feed them..he just transplanted a few days ago from a pot that that was probably too small for the plant. The reason i ssaid earlier it wasn't a Ph problem is because only one plant is doing it. And your growing from seed
So its probably a heavier feeding pheno.

the problem lies in your soil friend, fox farm is crap. no amount of phing, flushing, adding gravel? will solve your issues. best bet right now is to get your hands on high quality earthworm castings and do a heavy top dress and or make a slurry and apply. you need a better soil base mix next time..try equal parts: peat moss, high quality compost, high quality EWC and an arreation mix (pumice, lava rock). get yourself some azomite / rock dusts and your feeding minerals (oyster she'll, crab meal, neem meal etc and you'll be set.

I'm running a no-till, organic soil mix with loads of beneficial insects running around on top of mulch doing their thing, earth worms in the soil mix doing their thing and its glorious.

with the right soil mix you can forever retire your ph pen and water with only water for the rest of your gardening career. head over to the organic section and read, read and read
