Thanks for the replies. Interesting stuff. I’ve never changed medium on anything this far along before. If nothing else, it’s a good experiment.

Has anyone transplanted any plants from soil to hydro that were fairly well established approximately a month old? I usually start in the system but had 4 strains I wanted to throw in the tent. Showing typical transplant symptoms droopy and all that. How long before you saw recovery? They were...

Lights too close easily looks like N deficiency in early stages, don’t get crazy with the nutrients yet.

Yeah the lights too close for sure. Probably get around 18” from canopy at least, and dial it back to 50%. I’m willing to bet that’s a big cause of the issue. I have 4 of those lights and they’re actually quite strong

Perfect, a nice pot up with more fluffy coco, and you’re going to take off like a rocket

No doubt on the hunger. Slow and steady increases on nutes as roots develop and new growth occurs. Things will shape up within a week. Small adjustments and you’ll be just fine. The lower most leaves may have been sucked dry of nitrogen too far, so likely won’t see them green up again.

Sorry just read you’re actually using coco, you can just keep up your daily feed at 1.5ish

I would think based on how young they are you’d be fine to just feed again as you have been. Early veg growth generally in the ballpark of 1-1.5 ec. Ive generally followed water, water, feed. If you need an adjustment you can feed once more instead of a water. Give them a few days minimum to...

Most certainly hungry. Need some N

DrBuzz nailed it. Generally Miracle Gro potting soils and garden soils contain little slow release fertilizer pellets in them. So each time you water, you’re actually feeding your plant, which can be problematic. So definitely do not feed them additionally right now,they look nute cooked for...

The soil you are using appears to be designed to run start to finish without adding nutrients to it. The only other question would be what are you watering with? City water, well, or reverse osmosis water? There is the possibility as well that with an intense enough light you may need to...

Your soil definitely is not locked at 7, at least highly unlikely unless your watering/feeding at ph 7.0 constantly. You’re doing a good thing by running living soil, it’s great stuff. Keep in mind there is a large buffer for ph when growing in soil opposed to hydroponic, so you have that on...

I assume you’re getting the 7.0 reading because your using one of those soil ph probes? Ditch that and get a proper soil testing kit to really understand where you’re at, then adjust from there.

The only thing id recommend is let your ph swing ever so slightly higher. There’s the potential that if you are deficient and you’re steady at 5.8 you could be locked out. Something i tend to do with my hydro grows, slight swing to efficiently uptake all micro nutes. Otherwise looking healthy...
