Hello sir,
Ive watched you for about a year and enjoy your content, very educational! Im having an issue with my grow. 5x5 8 plants 4 strains from clone same synthetic nutes across the board growin in soil. Week 5 flower, one of my plants is dying. This certian plant has had water renention issues the entire grow. It holds to much. The soil never dries out. I waited a 5 days in week 3 to water this one and top soil was still moist and the plant saucer always has a little run off water in it. Its the smallest plant but ive never had this issue before. Maybe i didnt add enough pearlite at the begenning but my other plants are doing GR8!!
Runoff is 4.8 ec (wtf) i only water with 2.0ec max. Leaves show all sighns of deficiency allover the plant. Complete lock out.
Is there any thing i can do to salvage the plant? Hydrogen peroxide? Its a gg#4 with good looking tops but if its got to go i am willing to do it.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated
Thank you sir!
That's a great looking grow!
The one time I ran into root rot, I found it too late to do anything but throw her out. So I don't have any advice on how to handle it, but here is good article on Root Rot:
I would have flushed her as soon as I noticed the EC was out of whack. I usually measure using PPM but I assume a high EC is just as bad as a high PPM.
But it sounds like the damage may have already been done at that point so a flush may not of helped.
If you had more than a few plants doing this, then I would suspect it was something in your environment or feed, but it is just one so I would not stress too much about it. Sometimes stuff just happens for no apparent reason.
Last thought ... that pot wasn't sitting near a heat source was it? Too much heat could cause root problems.
Good luck with the remaining 7!
Yikes! sorry for your loss.
I'm guessing Root Rot or some other kind of root damage. That will prevent your girl from drinking no matter how much water you give her.
Those pics were taken within 60 seconds of chopping them
Hi thanks for replying.
I chopped them today, every leaf literally turned yellow and brown spots and died on the plant, it was like i wasnt watering the plant but had water standing in the plant saucer. Like I said it slowly went down hill over 2 week the other 6 are still doing great. There was no coming back
Do you have pics? Unless it is starting to hermie or have pests there is no reason which I can think of to chop it. Let her run out but let’s see what you got
