Transplanted plant prob.. nitrogen? Age ? too

I'm a first time grower with no experience whatsoever in growing anything, but I am reading a ton of stuff as I go.

I have 4 moms that were purchased from a very reputable dispensary (Barney's LSD, Sour Diesel, Jack Herrer, and Lemon-Lavendar Haze). They were in coco before I transplanted them, but I had a slight delay in putting them in the pots because I had 2nd thoughts about the soil I was using. Trashed the Miracle-Gro mix I had and ended up getting some Fox Farms Ocean Forest and Light Warrior. Great for the soil, but the time spent doing it was not so good for the girls. I was hoping the nutes in the soil would spring them back to life...

So this is day 3 in their new homes out on my balcony, and 3 out of the 4 are looking pretty stellar. Sadly, my LSD girl has not taken to her new home as well as the others. Here is a picture of the full plant and a couple of details, as well as a pic of all 4 of my babes (on day 1 of the transplant and now day 3... sorry for the blurry pic, but you can still see how well the other ones are doing). I think it's obviously a nute deficiency, but as a newbie, some of the pictures in the plant problems thread look very very similiar to me. Is there a way to help her?

Also, it seems to be very important to know exactly how old the plants are. I was a moron and never asked the guy how old these are - can someone help me with that? Or do I need to call the dispensary and see if maybe they can remember me and the girls I bought (which I sort of doubt).

I bought 4 because I figured my inexperience would off 2 of them anyway, so I'm still doing better than i thought! Thanks for any help, this forum is awesome.

nobody has any ideas? it seems like every other thread on here got some responses, and i even posted some pics! any help would be much appreciated!

why did you transplant from coco to soil? Im sure it has got something to do with shock. Maybe flush it real good and see what happens. Something that my buddies really like to use when transplanting is super thrive. Whenever they suspect shock they use this stuff and they say it works great. As far as the age of the plants, im not sure if you were specifying 2 years old? 2 months old? or what. I would go more with 2 months. They dont look all that mature to me for a 2 year mother plant. good luck and let us know what happens.

A couple of things.

Did you water them in well? The new soil should be really wet to make good contact with the transplanted root ball/medium. I'd also have about 1/2" of fresh soil covering the coco. Get it good and wet and firm everything down with your fingers or whatever. Make sure the root ball is making good contact with the new mix at the bottom of the root ball.

This is a very common newb mistake, not getting the transplant soil wet enough and not packing it in firmly enough.

Don't stress so much! The only things that happen fast in soil are usually bad, like nute burn. Give the plants a week or so to get over the transplant shock. If they still look bad after a week, then stress.

After this intense watering, be sure and let them dry out before watering again.

Wet

You do have drainage holes drilled in those buckets, YES??

Wet

Thanks for the replies! I went with soil because I'm a tard and it seemed like the most forgiving method... I got some clarification on the age thing so I'm all good on that front, too, thanks!

I was gonna run to they hydro store anyway for a better pH tester, I'll look into SuperThrive!

I watered the hell out of the soil and let it soak in for a day before the transplant. Before the soil change, I was letting the miracle gro sit for a days as i was soaking that shit with water (before i even got the clones), but I decided to go for the Fox Farms change so I just let the new ones sit for like a day as I soaked. I did make sure to pack the soil pretty tight around the coco root balls.

And yeah, of course, there's like 7 or 8 holes on the bottom of each bucket for drainage. I also drilled some holes up near the top of the bucket in case I wanted to try LST'ing any of them.. I want to keep it discreet since it's on the balcony, but there's no foot traffic aside from the neighbors in the building across the alley, and only maybe 2 or 3 apts in the building would be able to see them anyway, but not for a while until they're bigger.
