Growing help indoor! Age and nutrition

Growlog link: [paste your link here]

My plant is a total of 4 weeks old, 3 weeks into seedling so i believe 1 more week and im in veg stage? Also my leaves are curling :upside_down_face::upside_down_face::persevere::persevere: i started nutrients last week. I feed weekly and water every few days depends on how the soil looking!. Any help would be great



If you don’t have a growlog please answer these questions.
What strain are you growing? Is it Auto, Fem or Reg?
Are you growing Indoor or outdoor?
Are you using nutrients? Which ones? How much?

I’m not too well-known with nutrients. But I can tell you adding a little more perlite for drainage. Should be able to help be careful when transplanting. I have lost three babies to Transplant shock. From what I do know about nutrients. It looks like it could be nutrient shock, I’d also recommend turning the light down a little bit, depending on the light I would suggest keeping it around seventy percent for this stage. Please don’t take my response to heart rather take it In addition to further research. Indoor and outdoor have their own different challenges and it might seem discouraging. But I can promise you it’s worth it happy growing, I wish you the best.

Thank you i appericate all feedback!!. I will def turn the light down and add more perlite! As far as nutrs i didnt use a lot just to start to introduce because the plant is young!

Your soil is really wet looking to I’d wait until the top half inch of it is dry before water/feed.
I would recommend getting fabric pots to for better root health.
Right now I would focus on getting her healthy before adding more shock by adding to the soil.
It would help a little more if we knew weather it’s an auto or photo and strain to.
There’s different approaches to growing them with the time factor involved.

Друг привет!похоже вы чрезмерно любите растение,уменьшете дозу удобрений и воды,поливайте по мере высыхания почвы, комбинируйте полив,вода ,удобрения.после полива соберите воду которая стекает с горшочка,замерьте pH и и tds. Похоже ваша малышка не может скушать ваш обьем удобрений который вы ей даете. Удачи вам и вашему любимому растению!

Обратите внимание на внутрению каемку горшочка ,вы видите белый минеральный налет.если вы пользуетесь таблицей удобрения от производителя,уменьшете много кратно дозу,лучше немного не докормить, ведь это поправимо.

She was dry, just watered some before the pic, last watering was 4 days prior. The plant is hybrid gorilla rock it is a photoperiod, its week 3 of seedling,. I did turn down the light to 70% intensity, the humidity is at 47% currently and temp is 73°F. I do have a fabric pot 7 gallon as a final transplant

I’d you got a little more time , I’d focus on getting her healthy first and letting recovery happen before doing transplanting or anything major.
She might be getting to much nutrients this early maybe cut in half or none at all.
I’m no expert on this but there is a lot of people here that are and know more than me. I trust them sometimes it takes a little bit for a better answer.
Happy growing.

Thanks for the feedback! For now i will just water and let her pop back. I used a small amount of nutrients i was doing reading and it said its good to introduce so i did a small amount at week 2.

Really appreciate the help!. After some more research i did see the curling down of the leaves is stress either heat or over watering!. So i already did turn down the intensity of light! I will hold off on watering for a while! Although i dont water but ever few days it could be too much at a time! I do about 1/2 cup or less when i water.

Your plant is extremely stunted most likely due to overwatering. When the plant is a seedling you must add no more than 25-50ml at a time. Any more and you will drown the roots.

Unfortunately, this plant is beyond help. Once you stunt them, they do not recover.

You would be better to start again with a new plant.

While your plant is stunted it should still be able to produce flowers My 2 auto flower plants have both gone through transplant Shock, humidity shock, temperature shock, overwatering shock, underwatering shock. And absolutely no outside nutrition. I have had my problems with them. But surprisingly, they have stuck through all of that.

Thank you! This gives me hope! Especially being photo i know i have a little more time to work with then with most autos! So i should be able to bring it back! Im def going to lay off all watering/feeding until it dry out! And i will also put some perlite on top! There is perlite mixed in but i may not have put enough! I appericate all of yous feedback!

Your plants are a lot more resilient than you think, but always remember.
It will grow the way it wants to grow if that makes sense.
I just let nature take its course

Stress, shock and stunting are all different things. Plants that are stunted due to overwatering, in my experience, go into “survival mode” - ie. their normally rapid rate of growth crawls to a near stop. Stress from transplant or environment is not the same thing, that just causes some stress responses such as drooping which they soon bounce back from.

But with overwatering, it literally kills the roots, which is what powers growth up top.

Veg becomes very small and dense, water uptake drops to nearly nothing, and you end up with a dwarf plant, and very low yields.

This is despite the fact you ended up putting more effort and resources into them trying to save them.

So, while you can persist with it, imo it is better to spend your time on a new, healthy, vigorous plant that will give you a great result.

There is no upside trying to rescue a stunted plant other than to gain the experience. I’m just trying to tell you it’s not worth it but up to you :person_shrugging:

Here is an example from my last grow - both plants are the same age but the right was stunted due to overwatering. Look at the difference, it just never recovered.

Whilst it technically finished it’s lifecycle, the yield was so bad, my worst ever I think it was like 15g or something. Waste of time and resources.
