Could you possibly spilled something on the leaves? And i see its outside so have you checked for any signs of pests...i swear buggers can sometimes be so tiny you can only spot them with enlargement glass...im asking these because on one of the pictures i saw some white striped thingy that i cant identify if it looks like dry chemical or maybe some sort of web but its placed right around the affected area

I have some burning on the leaves of the plants I put out in the sun with out enough moisture in the soil check it out

Actually the other day when I waterd I might have..I'm about to go to work but I will look for pest when I get home

Ok, good boy *pats on the head* (joking a bit, sorry ) So in case of a burn, no use crying over spilled milk, you can cut it off, but i would recommend letting the plant deal with it on its own since you said you recently toped them, so i would avoid further stress

If you find buggers,crawlers,flyers or other craps, its as easy and cheep as it gets, crush eggshells into fine dust, spill some on soil, put some in spray bottle and add some water(make sure its super fine dust) spray on all sides,also good source of calcium for your plant. Also one of the members gave me a great tip(credits to Deprivation) about a dishsoap, a drop or 2 in spray bottle with water and spray away

 

[Greenethumb42]

What kind of dish soap a d do I spray the place to or the soil

 

[LittleCat]

Just the regular one you have in your kitchen, but just a drop or two in a spray bottle, and directly on the plant, try to get it even under the leaves Do not spray the soil

Ok...actually I seen some small looking like bugs in my soil..just thought it was from being outside....should I go ahead and transplant now..I think the soil I'm using now doesn't drain real well..when I transplant I will be using Fox Farm Ocean eat Forest

 

[LittleCat]

Well not sure transplanting would solve your issue there because you would have to transplant it along with some of that soil,no way to fully get rid of all the soil without causing damage to roots, my best advice would be to actually figure out what kind of pest it is, is it fungus gnat, aphids, thrips, spider mites(can go on like this for a while) have to see what it is, how it looks like and treat the soil itself.

Best would be to check the plant in detail, see if there are any creepers, as i said it could be just chemical damage to the leaf, or as Big Budha suggested, heat damage combo with not enough moisture in the soil

All of the above that i mentioned(in prev posts) can also use as prevention

Tu much to jung to fast
Les fertilizer better nothing for a few days
They are to yung for fertilizer anyway
Dont Force them.
Or the soil got already to much in it.

I know transplanting isn't gona fix it...but I want to get them in there 7 gal pots so they have time to grow Before flower..I want to know if I would transplant now would it make it worse..

 

[Viking Seeds]

If you put them in a fertilizer free soil it will be fine.
I always wash my soil dry it and disinfect it in the Oven by 100degrees Celsius and only use fertilizer if the plants show me that they need it.never had problems like that in all the time I grow

 

[Greenethumb42]

I never had a problem like this before either..that's why I'm asking for help

 

[Viking Seeds]

You can also clean the roots and put the plant in complete fresh soil.in Case the Bugs are the flyes that eat roots.

 

[Greenethumb42]

All of this happened over night..when I get home I will let you guys know what I find

 

[Viking Seeds]

Over Night?
Than it must be fertilizer,bugs won't do that over night.
Flush them with a lot of water and it should be fine.

 

[Greenethumb42]

Just wanted to update you guys..it must have been the fertilizer I spilled on them..don't see no bugs and I transplanted them 1 is in a 7 gal Smart Pot and the other is in a 5 gal..thanks for all the help and advice
