New Grower First AF grow, Northern Lights, Crit Mass, Cr Caramel and Af Kush. Heeya!

Alright here we are, finally. Sorry for the hold up those of you that have checked. Had some errands and housework to do for the lady. Got some pretty decent pics. They should go in this order but if not just look at the name of the file at the bottom right of each pic to follow which strain and how old they are>>>

1. Top view of all four. They range in size from smallest to largest: NL>>>AKR>>>CC>>>CM

2. Side view of all four. Same deal.

3. Northern Lights- She is damn pitiful, haha. 32 days old right here folks. About an inch tall. Pretty much just keeping her around for the hell of it.

4. Afghan Kush Ryder- 24 days old. Still clawed pretty bad, but decent. All of the crappy, crispy yellow growth is all old.

5. Cream Caramel- 24 days old. Really pale green-ish yellow. But second in line for being the biggest.

6. Critical Mass- 27 days old. She is the biggest and healthiest obviously. Still a bit of yellowing even in new growth, but I am sure it's because my ph has been so wonky.

Welp, there ya go folks. Laugh away growbewan. I'll take any help or suggestions or jokes at this point for that matter. Thanks guys.

Are you letting them dry out between waterings? Man to me they still look like stunted and nitrogen lockout due to
Overwatering. Besides the possible nute burn early on it looks like you either keep watering them and there overwatered Which is causing lockout to nitrogen and possibly Phos and/or PH lockout. What Is pH? How often are you watering? Wish I could come over and help ya bro lol. They're not dead yet.
 
Hey there Cap'n. I wish you could come help too. The flush took 8 days to dry out. Since then I have watered 3 times I believe. I'd say every 3 or 4 days, but they're in party cups and the heat stays about 81-82. They are good and dry several inches down. I pick up the first cup to check the moisture of the bottom soil and it's barely damp down at the very bottom and dry the rest of the way. So I figured it was time. Am I still over watering?

As far as ph I am hoping it's back in the lower 6 range but it was low 5 when I watered last Thursday with 6.5 ph water . Then I watered with ph water around 7 trying to bring it up on Sunday, three days later. It was higher but not 6 so now I am waiting until they dry out again to check the runoff from a couple days ago.

Much thanks Cap'n!
 
Squid I have a stunted NL the exact same age and height as yours I went ahead and just put all my stunted plants outside and they seem to be doing well, have you started any new strains?
 
No not yet. Just these four that I have now. Next batch is Wiz's Durrrty Dragons. Eek!
 
Yea soil 6.8 is the optimal pH for nutrient uptake. Once
You get below 6.2-6 in soil you will have lockout. It def is looking like a Nitrogen deficiency. Gotta get that Ph up before anything. Once you get the ph in range IDE say atleast 6.2-6.4 you could give them a small dose of veg nutes to see if it helps. A normal grown auto at there age would already be shooting pistils and have started flowering. They are stunted but it's not over yet. You can still pull a couple buds off these girls. Just gotta keep giving them TLC. Im about to send you a PM squid and then put the kids to bed and get to bed myself. If I don't hear from ya tonight I'll get back to
You tomorrow. :peace:

Good call, Cap. The only other thing I can add is that something must not be right with that soil. In 81 degree heat I just can't imagine how it's taking that many days for a party cup to dry out. Whatever you do, don't start any more seeds in that stuff. If you can't get your hands on something like Light Warrior, hit Walmart and buy a bag of Jiffy seed starter mix. You want something super light and fast draining for small plants.

Hang in there Squid!
 
Gah, much thanks guys. The rest of all of that soil is out in my veggie garden where it does oh so wonderful. haha. Crazy cannabis. I will be making my own similar to Promix. I couldn't thank you guys enough. I'm hanging there.
 
Damn bro i feel for ya BUT it ain't over yet! Andy's right Jiffy seedstarter mix is awesome for your new seeds,i love it and found it at walmart for $2 a bag this spring. Have you thought about the transplant idea to different soil? Adding a little powdered dolomite lime to the top layer of your soil may raise your ph level some to. I done that with my current blue widow at 1 tsp. gallon soil and it fixed it right up. Hope you can turn them around man!
