Desperate as to what I’m going wrong…

[Dead]

Hi all

3rd attempted grow - each time just as I’m to flip to flowering - they wilt and die.

I’ve thought I’ve been over watering, so I had two plants. I watered one, and literally never watered the other; identical result.

Any idea?

Gotta know the details. Growing medium, nutrients, environment…….

As mentioned, we need lots more details.

Possibly : transplant shock, hot soil or overfeeding liquid nutes or adding something you shouldn’t, insects (above or below soil), temperature too high, lights too intense, etc

Without knowing details of the grow, your techniques and environment, it’s all speculation. Lots of people willing to help, just post some more details and you’ll be able to finish a plant before you know it.

Flying completely blind without details of your grow, but based on how long the plants are living just fine for about a month and then just start deteriorating, I would be looking at the way I'm watering the plants because it's probably salt toxicity killing them. Try watering at a "drip" rate, making sure there's about a quart of excess that runs out and that should keep the soil evenly hydrated and avoid pockets that don't get wetted right and then start repelling water and accumulating salt.

Again flying blind without info and just looking at timing of the collapse. There are plenty of other things it could be and we might be able to help trace the cause once we rattle through some specs you've been running.

What can you tell us about:

Your soil
The environment (lights type, light schedule, temperatures, humidity)
Type of plant (auto or photo, what strain)
How do you water and how often
Feeding - what do you feed, what concentration and how often
Any surrounding stress events (transplanting, LST, sudden weather changes, pests)

Your touching the plant to much and it takes at least two weeks to recover from any man handling. Don't even bother topping the plant next grow.

Wow! I can’t believe how invested I am in someone else’s problem, lol dying to find out the story and get some closure

So many are here for a day or two......poof.....gone forever

Obviously impossible to say for certain with no info but...

In the past - most of my problems have come from doing too much.
Over handling, trimming, bending, feeding (especially cal/mag) too much light, water or wind, etc...

Now I try to leave them alone to do their thing.

Bending but no big cuts/topping, tap water, just the basic min. fertilizers (follow the directions on the bottles, ovelap grow and bloom for a time) with few additions - except some fish emulsion/guano mix every other feed.

They may not get as big and juicy as they could have with absolute maximum dosing and extra minerals/nutrients - but theyll do well and wont crash out on me.

Will wait for more info to actually help, but off the bat it looks like you are defoliating too heavy. You took away the majority of its ability to photosynthesize. It needs that surface area collecting the light and converting, especially when they are smaller.

just start over and we’ll help you to a successful harvest,.

Absent any other information, it’s a root issue, now the cause, could be several different things, so “mo info needed”.
