i have never used cheap materials in the past and never had any major problems even on my first few attempts at growing. i recently had a few seedlings that out grew the plastic cups started in so i went to put them in bigger 1 gallon pots when i realized i was out of my roots organic soil which always worked great for me. so being in mid week and tight on money with bills car payment insurance and a terrible addiction to scratch off tickets and quick draw, i had to go to home depot and buy some cheap bags of organic soil they sell 5-6 bucks a bag(very small bags i must add). anyway fast fowarding up to today its been a few weeks since i have replanted them in the x-brand of soil from home depot and the plants seem to be under grown very tiny and most of them have very light colored green almost a light lime color on most of the lower to mid leaves. almost 75% of them also have a browning almost like a dead leave u rake up in the fall time at the leaves tips. i will add pics soon, but i figure it must be the soil and ????? Is it worth repotting them and lightly shaking some of that el-cheapo dirt off the rootball and replanting with a better premium soil from local hydro store aswell as trimming off the decay on the lower half of plants or are they as good as done. i know its hard to say with out pics but my camera is home and i would like to get a idea of what u guys think the culprit is incase i have 2 stop buy the local hydro shop before they close thanks.
