I'm new to cross-polinating but that's beside the point. What can I do to improve conditions for my droopy Cherry Wine seedlings? I rinse-watered all plants 3 days ago, and I do know there was a bit of green algae or mold on the surface of the soil in the plastic cups I was using before transplanting the plants to bigger pots.
Temperature is fine but I don't know about humidity, I'm using a 1500w COB panel, and a 6" can fan for exhaust. There's also an oscillating fan in the tent. Medium is Roots Organic Soil, and ffof nutes. My ph was off for some time(7.8) but I corrected it last couple of fert and watering schedules.

When did you transplant? It isn't uncommon for plants to take a while to adjust to new growing conditions... especially if you are transplanting into a "hotter" soil. The plants actually look pretty good to me but might take a bit to adjust. What medium are you growing in? Make sure they don't begin to wilt from lack of water, which can damage a plant after it happens a few times.

Roots Organic soil. Thanks for the observation. I transplanted just about a week ago. I certainly hope so although I'm more hoping to develop a female/male relationship with two thc strains. Good news is I think I have a female 2 Scoops plant and I started germination of a seed from some really great weed so fingers crossed.

may be leave them dry out a little more.That green algae and/or mold means you keep them too wet.And with transplanting in bigger pots they can hardly dry out enough.I am sure they will bounce back with the drying,they love the drying as much as watering:)Once they get bigger that wont be such problem.

I'm always a little hesitant to use actual soil, since it is difficult to keep it dry enough without adding a bunch of Perlite to it... which changes the dynamics of the soil. Outdoors I wouldn't have any issues using it, but indoors it is difficult to get an easy balance between wet and dry. As long as the plant is happy, then you are doing the right thing!

Yeah, that's basically my impression as well. The soil was very soggy the whole time I had them in cups.

Which is why I always used the same soil for my past grows. The airflow the soil provides has been great until recently. I blame myself of course.
