Can someone tell me what’s going on with these plants? The leaves are starting to droop and curl at the tips. All advice appreciated.

Hello JW8. Well seeing that your growing in a tent as it looks pretty obvious to me that you are, it could be a half dozen things, overdose of nitrogen or nutes in general or possible root rot, over watering could be a cause as well. Depending on when you fed last or watered. I’d say give it a couple days and see how it is as more times than not it will work itself out just cut back on your nutrients next time you feed. Or back off on watering as I don’t know how often you water or feed your plants, next time just use pH’water and see how it goes If not, you might have to use 1 tablespoon of hydrogen peroxide to a gallon of water which you can pick up hydrogen peroxide at your local corner store, which I had to do that once on my OG Kush plant as I overdosed it on nutrients and it turned out just fine after using hydrogen peroxide. Be aware, though that using hydrogen peroxide could potentially damage the microbial life of your medium, so just be careful could be your tent is too hot Also, I say Take a breath don’t flip out, you’ll be fine just watch your baby daily, if you have any problems, I will try to walk you through take care my friend and just chill lax out😎TLK

Cool thanks, I really think it’s a watering issue. Everything else looks good

I think it’s overwatering too. I feed them last night and had quite a bit of runoff. I was told I don’t want runoff since I’m growing all organic. But like I said it’s only my second grow. I have plants in 3 gallon fabric pots and feeding them a liter of water every 3 days with nutrients added.

3 gallon pots, soil roots organic soil, autos…
How old are your plants?
Im in my flowering stage I started on Monday, I’m using 20 gal pots and is my first grow, check it out as I could crash and burn orrrrr it could turn out to be epic… have a good day and I hope I helped you worry less. Hey Kids! It’s the TimberLadd Kush show! OG Kush/Purple Punch flowering stage.

I agree with the above. Autos are finicky when it comes nutes, watering ect… i would allow the soil to nearly dry out completely, allowing your roots to take in some oxygen and get a breath. I would then water slowly over 15 to 20 min time really allowing the soil to absorb all the moisture it can. Establish a nearly drown to drought routine. Since youre in soil, you dont want it to completely dry out,but dont saturate every few days either unless they are showing signs of really drinking. When i grew autos, they liked a ph up around 6.8 so they had access for the nutrients needed for flowering. She will let you know when shes hungry. When she is start out at half the recommended dose of nutes. Remember with cannabis less is better

@ChittyChittyBangin — Was it you who waters around the perimeter of your pots so the roots are drawn to the moisture and nutes. Regardless, it seems like brilliant counsel for growing root mass.

That’s been determined to be standard practice for alot of people on here. I do it until they are bigger, then I just water slowly around the whole pot. My 4 in flower are taking a gallon per day (in coco).

@Highwayman420 — Thank you. I have only seen one mention of that practice. I’m going to employ that approach moving forward.
