1 1/2 Months Old. 3 Inches Tall.

I started some bagseed a month an 2 weeks ago and I have had a lot of problems. I finally have temps at 87*F in the day and about 70*F at night. I must be having some pH or nute problems because every plant I put in there gets some problem with browning, yellowing, purpling, and crispiness.
Has any one else had similar problems with super short weak plants that are so old?
I have more specifics if you need them.

Looks like nutrient overdose...

Yes alot more specifics would help. What kind of soil is that? Looks like wood chips. Probably not the best quality I'm guessing. Lack of plant growth will often mean a lack of root growth. I would guess the roots are getting enough O2 from that soil, but how often are you watering? Could be over watering causing the plant to be suffocated and there for unable to develop a decent root system. What hows the drainage on your custom pots?

That would make sense because last grow went smoothly in there only thing that hs changed is the soil.

I don't remember what kind of soil. I think it said topsoil on the bag. I water everyday or every other day depending on how dry they are. I just poked like 10 holes in the bottom of each "pot" with a pair of scissors.

Learn to cut losses. Cull the plant and start over. Get some real soil and good beans! Good luck!

Right there I would say you are watering too much. Only water when a good 2-3 inches of your topsoil is dry.

Top soil is not a good planting medium. When I said "topsoil" in my last sentence I just meant the actually top of the soil. But topsoil is what you would use for landscaping. Not gardening, its meant to just cover ugly shit. That's why it's mostly wood chips.

Get a new soil and transplant if you want to try to save your lady. Water ONLY WHEN NEEDED. Shouldn't be more than two times a week with soil.

I would say the over watering and crap soil is the reason this lady hasn't grown to her full potential. Like I said, the roots aren't able to take up the 02 they require.

Ever watch Karate kid???
