Fabric grow pot problems maybe?

[newish.grower007]

I have a small 8x8 ft green house with 5 plants. Three of the plants are/were growing in fabric containers. Those three plants are doing REALLY bad! Is there some thing i can do to help get these plants right? I transplanted those into plastic containers a couple days ago. The PH is fine and I fed those 3 with a mixture of 35% H2O2 to 5 gallons water to see if that might clean off the roots, but it didn't help. Pics are of 1 bad plant, 1 good plant (originally planted in plastic container). A pic of the fabric container and a couple bad leaves.

With the algae growing on the outside of the bag could be youre overwatering one plant and it could’ve caused it to get root rot as for the the crazy looking leaf with a funky design in the middle i don’t know what it could be

What are you growing in?
How often do you water?
How much water do you give?
How often do you feed and how much?

I can guess already that you have severe root issues because the pot is on plastic and it can not drain properly. There MUST be airflow underneath the pot. Yes even fabric.

Looks like they’ve got the good old greenhouse stretch also.

Classic sulfur deficiency.

Is it too late to correct? If not, how do I correct it? Product name would be great!

Epsom salt is magnesium sulfate, half teaspoon to a gallon. But there isn’t much there to save. What kind of water have you been using, well or tap?

Tap water out of the garden hose. I fill the 5 gal bucket and let it sit for a day. Keep in mind, the only bad plant are the ones in fabric containers. The only thing I fed them all was bat guano.

That is strange, most growers, myself included, prefer bags. Those stains are like highwater marks, are you keeping the bags off the tables with grids so theres airflow under them?

No I didn't :( , I just transplanted those 3 bad plants into plastic ones. Will the epson salt work? It's what my wife has. lol

Worth a shot, i don’t know what effect the essential oils might have tho.

What's the humidity in the greenhouse? Sulphur is immobile and requires decent transipration. If humidity is too high in there they might just not be drawing up adequate immobile nutrients.

Pots on the floor isn't good either as mentioned.

Growing in happy frog.
I water depending on the weather. Hot days,1 gal a day
I was using bat guano, 1 tbls per gal twice weekly. All plants are now in plastic as of a couple days ago.

Did you have a good look at the roots when you transplanted them out of the bags? They should be almost white if they are dark and mushy .... well they are most like rotting. My suspicion as another here said too much water left in the bag between watering, get it up off the poly what kind of soil (I assume it's soil) are you growing in and I hope you didn't put rocks or gravel in the bottom of your pots or bags

 

[ComfortablyNumb]

I would have kept them in fabric.
Here is your problem and solution.

Marijuana Watering, how media, pot size/shape and environment affect it

Ok lots of posts on how to water plants. So I thought I would put together a thread on how different factors contribute to different results that ppl see. This will be a long read based on my personal knowledge, opinions, research and others work to consolidate information for our members. I'm...

Watering for Soil Growers Only

Watering in Soil Watering plants gives many new growers anxiety issues. Because we want our plants to do the best they can, we over water and some even underwater. To help relieve the stress and confusion, this is sort of a step by step of what to do and look for when you grow in soil...

I don't think humidity is a problem, as you can see from a pic of my greenhouse. The top is pretty well vented! lol

No rocks or gravel, just Happy Frog soil. The roots actually looked whitish-yellow.

Seen it before. What part of the Country? Aside from the obvious watering, ventilation, feeding. You can’t just throw them into any enclosure with translucent panels and expect great results. No more than you can go out in the woods and grow them under a canopy of trees. You need to research greenhouses. Growing in perpetual twilight isn’t going to get it done.It may not look like it to your eyes but it does show the plants. I’ll shut up and good luck to you.

I live in Vancouver Wa. There are a lot of outdoor/greenhouse growers in this region.

@Oldchucky has a point, the panels you used are reflecting almost half your light away from the plants because of their shape. I love how you fit it together. You have plenty of ventilation so I know you did some reading. Get your watering squared away and 50% of problems vanish. What's your pH? How are you feeding?
