leaves keep dying!

[afireoutside]

my plant is about 2 months old now.. and its not doing too good. i should have like 7 or 8 nodes of leaves now, but the bottom nodes keep withering away and dying so i only have 4. all of the top leaves are still looking green and fresh but the bottom ones turn yellow and then die. help.

We need a lot more info than that to help you.
Let's start with media/container (what kind) and light (how much of what kind).

[afireoutside]

its growing outside in the dirt mixed with potting soil and it gets direct sun(this IS an outdoor forum) from 10am to 1 pm, ive been giving it a very small amount of miracle grow in the water every now and then too.

do u have any pics if so that would help

[afireoutside]

pictures removed

[JerryG1989]

it may be using the food stored in those leaves to stay alive
do u fertilize?

[afireoutside]

ive just used a little miracle grow a few times

[JerryG1989]

wat kind of miracle grow is it
u should use a 20-20-20 fert

[afireoutside]

i know i should use something with 20 20 20 but im not spending money on fertilizer for just 1 plant.. im not sure what the miracle grow is... could the problem be something else?

i know i should use something with 20 20 20 but im not spending money on fertilizer for just 1 plant.. im not sure what the miracle grow is... could the problem be something else?The problem could be the MG nutes you gave it.

[afireoutside]

even from 1/8th of the reccomended dose?

[THE BROTHER'S GRUNT]

even from 1/8th of the reccomended dose?Yup because you could be giving the plant something it doesn't need or want. What are the numbers on the MG nute bottle? There should be 3 of them. I would lay off giving it anymore and see what happens. You should think about getting some good nutes. I know it cost money but in the long run you will end up with better bud.

I pay $14 for my Fox Farm Grow Big, but at the strength you use it, it will last a few grows. Totally worth it IMHO.

the nutrients ratio on that miracle grow is 15-30=15 by the way

[GanjaGuru]

15-30-15 is for flowering.
, but all miracle grow products are crap.

[THE BROTHER'S GRUNT]

15-30-15 is for flowering.
