    Default Plant health help

    I lost track of the days but she's over 2 weeks old from seed maybe close to 3 weeks not sure
    I transplanted her into a 5g pot today and i noticed some purple spots on the stems i was wondering if it's a mag deficiency or something else here's a sloppy pic (so hard to focus on the stems -.-)

    I wanna know if she's growing slow she's 5" x 4" x 3 1/2" and is working on her fourth node. When should i expect the growth spurt I WANT HER BIG ALREADY
    also how does she look? healthy? She look pretty droopy makes me sad not knowing what to do

    It looks OK for two weeks, not droopy or unhappy.

    Now listen, I need to tell you a few things. You seem to be pretty new, this is probably even one of your first plants. Right?

    Here is a very important lesson.

    Back away from your plants and let them be. Do not love them to death. One of the biggest mistakes newbies make is always thinking there is something more you can do to help it grow faster. While this may be true in some ways, staring at the plant making minute observations on its appearance will only drive you crazy at best and may drive you to do something to your plant that hurts it, at worst.

    You have a small plant in a sizable container. Water it (feed it) once thoroughly according to the soil you planted it in. And then let it be for a week or so or until the planter is dry and lightweight.

    Good luck

    Tell me about the soil you're using. Have to know that before we can talk about feeding.

    I got it at a local nursery, i feel like it was a bad choice but since I was flat broke and my plant seemed like it need a transplant I got it. I don't know if it contains any nutes or not.
    I wanted to know about coco, i bought some coco plugs for starting seeds in So i started some seeds but I'm confused now , coco contains no nutes right? So am i supposed to feed the seedlings? Do i have to buy Hydro nutes now? sorry for all the questions lol I'd rather ask questions now than whine on later in the forum when my plants are dieing
