Indoor Easy Ryder INDOOR First Time but not dumb :) I think..... FROM START TO FINISH

[blue]

Yes sir Blue, I have 1 more Easy Ryder (Total of 3) that I haven't not yet planted.
I'm guessing I must've watered it too much because my other grow (in a 3x bigger pot) is doing 100% with no problems whatsoever. I guess I should leave it alone for acouple days (2). & Let it get thirsty and water it as minimal as possible right ?

It doesnt look massively over watered - Leaves will be really droopy and a bit heavy and limp.
I would put money on your soil that's holding you back. There's loads of high quality soils available. Get yourself to a grow shop and grab a bag of "light mix" soil (like plagron or biobizz) and a nice 10 litre pot, and we'll get you rocking! ^_^


14 days in - you have another 60-70 to go - are you sure you want this kinda woe?
I know beans are expensive - but not as expensive as 8 weeks ellecy etc. Weigh it up

Definitely stunted somewhat but I don't think it looks that bad in the pics. I'd say just leave her alone for a bit and let her roots work to find any water left in the soil. Then when you do water, don't douse the whole pot since you'll just be blasting the plant with MG nutes. Gently water around the base of the plant until she grows a bit bigger and can handle more food. Green karma sent your way, bud! :smoke:

Thank you. I've been doing that. She seems to be doing okay. I would say her Health is at 70%.. She still has some weird spots of discoloration... I've lowered the amount of water I give her. pics up soon Thanks guys in advance
Status is when I enter my room. You can smell the sweetness
On the one that had ZERO problems, the leaves started looking abit crunchy just like the other one. So i lowered the water & tried just watering the base of the plant a-tad. On that particular pot, it has an entrance on the bottom where you can distribute the water. (Making it easier for the roots to get the water) But i did lower the amount drastically.
Pics up very soon THANK YOU

A couple of problems I see. One, that planter is horrible. I bought a few a while back to test. They don't allow for runoff very well so your salts are going to build up in the soil. Bad news there.

On to your problem right now. Your ph appears to be severely out. Are you checking the ph of your runoff? If so, what is it? If not, you need to be. You should be somewhere between 6.3-6.6. That is likely what is causing your leaf edge curl as well as your deficiency you are seeing on the new leaf formations. Those spots in picture 3, calcium deficiency. The yellowing in between the veins in 5, magnesium deficiency. You normally see them both together and they are normally from ph not being correct.

If you can't afford a meter, you need to get a good strip test to at least get you in the ballpark.

How on earth does a Plant get Calcium/magnesium deficiency ?

How on earth does a Plant get Calcium/magnesium deficiency ?

Either by a lack of those nutrients in your growing medium or the pH dropping to a level where the plant can no longer use the nutrients that are present. This chart shows why you need to be mindful of pH:

 

[HeroicKevin]

The increase of yellow and dark orange spots is increasing its now on both plants... New leaves are bright yellow

What is the PH of your run off?

I am a relatively new grower (5 small grows), and I have experienced these kinds of deficiency problems and they were all down to PH. I held off on buying a probe as the general advice given is that you get what you pay for; however I invested in http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NEW-LCD-E..._Measurement_Equipment_ET&hash=item1e86bdbd54 after a helpful recomendation by a nice person on this forum, and it has saved my grows every time since then. It rarely goes out of calibration - I calibrate once ever 4 weeks out of paranoia.

The other item I bought on recomendation was this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/3-In-1-So...denEquipment_HandTools_SM&hash=item4ab7d653cc, srub it with a scourer before use and it will give you a good feel for the soil PH - I use this every few weeks just for comfort sake - and when mixing my own soil.

If the PH of the soil is low, just raise the PH of the water going in so that the run off is around 6.3-6.5 and possibly add some garden lime to your soil (poke holes in it and fill) - use about 1tbsp per 2 gal. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Sinclair-...rden_Plants_Fertiliser_CV&hash=item1c364c086c

Good luck and I hope they recover - I have had some great yeilds from plants I almost killed so never give up.

A good medicine for plants is molasses (5ml/l) and epsom salts (2ml/l) mixed, PH'd and applied as the only nutrients. You can get these from a supermarket (Black Treakle) and a chemist respectivly.
