Hey amigos! I was reading another thread from someone asking for help, and I noticed a common mistake made by new growers asking for help online. It is hard for growers to help without knowing some basic information about your grow. So, I figured we should make a template that can be used for new growers when posting a thread asking for help. (if there isn’t one already) for the sake of getting everyone involved, I will only list one variable so others can contribute.
my suggestion for the first variable is;
What is your plants medium?
Are you feeding? If so what and how much?
What is the temp and humidity range?
What light are you using and how close is it?
Do you have any pictures?
Have you inspected the plant for bugs?
What’s with the animosity guys? This is a good idea for a thread and is something the community would benefit from greatly.
Let’s see if we can turn this thread around before canning it… No need for attacks or belittling someone for having a different perspective or opinion, and let’s keep things relevant.
I’m closing the topic until @LemonadeJoe can take a look and decide what to do with it
Stay hazed

That is good idea for thread I think, let’s gather our own DIY list that suits OG needs best… So we can link to this topic when there is some newbie requesting help but missing needed facts…
Do you measure temperature and humidity in your grow room?
also please take pictures under natural/normal lighting, it’s hard to diagnose under blurple or yellow hps (can use your camera flash or color correcting glasses as a lense for your camera)
Covering what should be the basics:
Have they even looked at grow FAQS
What strain if known
Soil medium or hydro
pH of medium
NPK test of Soil medium
Age of plant
What nutrients are being added?
How much nutrients added
How much water/ water pH
Indoor/outdoor
Type of lighting and length of time lightning on cycle
Bugs present
A picture posted of the plant/problem
What has been done in terms of self help
