What’s wrong with my plant , I water every 2-3 days but it looks like it just needs to be watered every other day , how long does your plant take to recover if you forget to water ? Is this just under watering ? Anything else it could be ? Please help !!! I want to keep her I’ve put some work into these plants
Looks like a tiny plant in a big pot, it's easy to overwater and starve it's roots of oxygen like this. They say not to transplant autos but it can be done using proper techniques. You start them in cups and when you want to transplant, you can cut the bottom of the cup off and drop them in a bigger pot....... It's kinda ass backwards from what you should be doing, but for now I would only water right around the base of them (not the whole pot) until the roots stretch out and you see some growth. If your soil becomes hydrophobic because of doing that a soil penetrant will fix it.

They’re in 1 gallon pots

They're still tiny plants with tiny roots, they're drowning buddy. They need o2 at the root zone
Not true , the one with the problem , is in promix and I ALWAYS wait till the top inch is bone dry and it’s light to hold . As I do with my other plant , the gelato which is doing amazing in the same conditions . The one with the problem has been growing faster till today , they’re the same day from sprout . I tried to explain to the plant that growing up too fast isn’t healthy but its stubborn and has a mind of its own . All jokes aside I’ve grown before just never experienced such a finicky plant which is why I’m asking for help . Overwatering is not the problem any other suggestions ?
