Hello again people of roll it up! The tips of some of my plant's (3wk old) top leaves are turning brown. It's only very minor atm but i don't want to take any chances. At first the young "fake leaves" were turning yellow now this... What should I do? Btw, I was planning on transplanting it 2 days from now? Should I? Your help is much appreciated :bigjoint:

soil type? the smaller round leaves are supposed to die, dont worry about them. other than that more info is needed to diagnose why a plant is having problems, not simply a picture and a thanks.

its proabably okay...plants are a natural thing, it could just be alittle too much heat or the tips just curl..cus theyre really fragile but as long as the leaves are green generally..im sure its fine just keep a looksy on it and u should be ok!

Yah man, still kind of early to diagnose problems. I like to get them a little bigger but you can transplant now if you can keep an eye on them and if it's warm enough. Sunlight might help them out. Do you see any tiny spots on the tops or bottoms of the leaves?

Thanks for the advice old hippie! No, I can't see any tiny spots. I'm not sure whether to put them in sunlight because I don't know if the cause of the browning is either from heat stress or nutriburn. Any idea exactly how to find out? I might just wait and see what happens.

Sorry about that ugzkmk. I was trying to keep the post short and concise. Anyway, i don't know what soil type it is. I don;t know its pH level either. I just know it has pearlite in it and it used to have a mayana plant in it but I let it die so I could put my plant in it. The soil, however, is starting to become compact and hard. I water it about 4 times a day w/ a 5hr interval. I use a spray gun (?) to water it and I use just plain tap water. I let it stand overnight in an open container first to make the Cl evaporate. It recieves about 5-7 hours of direct sunlight. I don't add any fertilizers either. I don't monitor the temp outside but lately it's been fluctuating because of rainy and sunny weather. Is there any more info I should give to help diagnose the problem?

They really don't look that brown in the pics. You might be stressin out for nothing. Nutriburn - I never had a problem with over fertilizing and I added nutes every time I watered when I did it inside. Heat stress - maybe, if it was over about 95 degrees . How did you grow them, seeds or clones? Maybe the leaves grew a little too fast for what the roots could support.
