My First Atempt Growing Big Bud & Hindu Kush Skunk

I couldn't see what you were talking about with the pic you posted...The stem split on its own? Leaf tip turning down may be overwatering. Didn't I see you post that you have been watering every day? I am not sure about the yellowing, I will let someone else answer that because I think that could be a few things, not sure. I think if you overfertilized you would have nute burn which tends to look brown and burnt.
 
I think what your talking about is normal...the main stem has a skin like structure that will sluff off as it grows, mine always did ;)

As far as the yellowing leaf tips? I think it may be a little hot on the nutes but I may be wrong...maybe you should flush them a little to make sure not to get too much salt build up.

One thing I forgot to mention, you should water them with plane water first before you give them fertilizer, so that the uptake of the fert will be less potent and more easily accepted by the plant...or something to that effect?

I always did this the day/night before I gave them their nutes.

These babies are still quite small so, we really need to be careful not to over fertilize them.

Sometimes it's hard to know when to start giving them nutes, just back off on them for now and wait til they start getting more light green before feeding again..ok?

When they are dark green, they are well fed and don't need nutes but when they start getting light green they're getting hungry and need feeding....that's how you can tell and part of "reading" your plants.

learning to watch for these tell-tell signs, is all part of the learning process...cool?
 
ahh cool , yes i belive the skin of the steam breaking off its a natural process , about the leaf , i belive that it was a little overwatering / over feret due to the repot, but its under control i belive , im always carefull with the water / nutes :) thx for the help guys , i will probably post some more pics tomorow ^^

Tell me what you guys think of them :thanks:

There is a product you need to look for called "Super Thrive"...I found this stuff at Walmart and all the home and garden stores around here :thumb:

This stuff is great for healing plants back to life, it has hormones and micronutes that are made for healing plants and worked wonder's for some of mine, I highly recommend it bro...ask around at your local plant stores for it..ok?

Make sure that sick looking one is the closest to the light because it does look pretty pitiful man...not to the point of death tho but pretty damaged none the less, maybe the lights will help to rejuvenate it? IDK?
 
ahh ok warrior , i will look for some product to heal plants arround here , but do you think she can make it ? =/ she is quite close to the lights

I'm pretty sure she'll be ok..but we need to find out what's wrong none the less ;)

How well is she producing new growth? Has she stalled? Or is she still kicking out new leaves at the top?

Speaking of "Top"...You know you can pick the center out of the top to make them grow shorter, right?

When you do this, it will make 2 side shoots come out of the center instead of 1 and then you just pick the top out of those 2 and make 4 and so on and so on...every 1 top you pick out makes 2...understand?

This will give them a bush like effect and keep the height low while giving you lots of branches for budding sites...make sense?

This method it called "cropping" or "topping" and has worked for people for decades ;)

Astonr? If you will? I'm sure you have a good diagram for this...with your bad ass resourceful self...:rofl::adore::Namaste:
 
Yeah our go to guy with visual aids...I definitely need one about now. I mean I have topped and I think I am doing it right. Is it good to top before starting 12/12? Gonna start it tonight actually. And I didn't know about Super Thrive. I mean I have seen it mentioned but didn't know what it was used for.
