Default Leaves Dying, Bad Soil, Please Help
I had this thread on another forum but decided to bring it here.
Great site btw.
So i have a main plant, about 40 days since sprouting, and she(hopefully) has been having some problems.
I started her in MG time released nutes potting soil, and she was, but i started noticing some leaf problems. The cotyledon died quick, the 1st set of leaves died as well, and the first 3-leafed growth was beginning to die.
I decided to move to new soil, so i got a mix of organic MG potting, organic MG ground soil, as well as some normal topsoil and perlite, 1 part of each.
I then transplanted my plant into the new soil, rinsing the roots (still had a tiny bit of soil/bark that it went through, very little though. The roots were basically a straight line when i put in in though because of the rinse. That might be bad. I then watered them, with about 2 gallons of water between all my 4 plants (the main got the most), which had about 3/4 a tbsp of fish crap fertilizer (5-1-1). That may have been a mistake.

Anyways, this was 3 days ago that i transplanted it, and it seems to be getting worse. The first set of 3-pronged leaves is dead, the next almost dead. So any imput? I also have a few (3) smaller plants that were transplanted, their 1st set of leaves after cotyledons are not doing great, but they seem a little better.

Pictures 1-2 are of a a few days before transplanting,
3-5 are of 2 days after transplanting.
6 is of one of the little plants, as well as 10, both post transplant but different days,
7-9 are all the main plant today, 9 being a dead leaf.

Any input would be great, this forum seems very active and helpful.

well it seems like it can't handle the cooling climate, i would move indoors asap - you already have them in pots and you could use some cfl's at this stage until you get a better light.

Well its about 80-90 degrees currently where i live, so i dont think that's the problem. Lowest in the past weeks MAYBE 70. But thanks for the replies. And yeah, the root system definately took a beating. But im pretty sure it was the MG with ferts causing problems..

Default Well
I'm Confused.

I'm going to germinate a few random seeds, 2 that are the same as my little ones, and 2 random bagseeds, then try them out STARTING in the new soil, to see if they develop problems that may be due to the old soil.

If so, then its probably my water? Or climate? (Texas) Got to like 90 today, low maybe 65-70 in the early am. Unless my soil mix is still flawed, i made sure it was all organic though..

Heres new pictures
Notice red stems?
New growth looks good, bottom bad (thats the 2nd set of 3 pronged leaves that has died. If it pulls through, the plant definately wont be bushy.
