Overfertilizing cannabis

Slight chronic over fertilizing can cause the leaves to curl either upward or underneath. Heavy over fertilizing can cause the plant to wilt in a matter of minutes. When the soil medium has a higher concentration of salts (nutrients) than the plant, it draws water from the plant. The only solution growers reported to this problem is to get rid of the excess nutrient by rinsing it out. Once the plant starts to wilt, a few minutes may mean life or death. The best way to deal with pests is to prevent them from infecting the garden. A smart gardener never goes to the indoor garden after being in the yard or around outdoor plants. S/he may inadvertently carry in pests. While they are kept in check naturally outdoors, they have a field day indoors in a much less hostile environment (especially strains like white widow). Healthy plants should be kept away from infected plants and should not be handled after handling infected ones. The pests most likely to infect an indoor garden are mites, white flies and aphids.
