Cut my losses or carry on?

[Fuzzylines]

I'm on my first grow on soil and had a lot of overwatering and nute problems at the beginning. Got myself back on track but one of my ladies really doesn't seem to have transplanted very well. Should I cut my losses with the cheese and use the pot for a healthy plant?
Just out of curiosity, how are the other 2 doing?

I won't tell you what seek into veg I am. Its embarrassing!

theyll recover. No point in cutting your losses, they are all far from dead.

Thanks. I'm getting new growth through that looks Phosphorus deficient so I'm just upping as I go and hoping everyday they look a little better!

Welcome. What kind of soil? Added perlite for drainage? In soil try and maintain a proper wet/dry cycle. How close is your light? And what kinda light?

So, my soil. Its a UK supermarket branded soil. I literally had no clue when I went and bought my equipment so ended up there. No perlite. I plan to do things very differently next time around.

So up until last week I was feeding daily until the run off tray was full with nutrients daily. After buying 3 separate growing bibles I remedied.

I started with a sunmaster 600hps but I've got the spider farmer sf4000 now. Been hanging about 2 weeks.

Currently feeding when needed (figured out pot weights) and feeding according to run off ppm and ph levels now. Trying to go by feel and eye rather than a schedule now.

Edit: with a lot of stunted growth the big ones (photo periods) around about 5 weeks in. They're NLs and I was wondering how long should I leave it before switching light cycles?

Nice! Looks like you’re on the right track. Depending on your height limitations, allow those babies to stretch out a bit. Are your lights at the recommended height for veg? The sf4000 has great capabilities. Use this grow as a learning experience and watch how great your next are.

Cut your losses? Those plants are just a wee bit sad, tell 'em a few jokes and they'll perk right up!

Thanks! Its good to hear lol. I kind of went off on my own and I think i needed to hear that lol.

Yeah I believe so, manufacturers guide is between 18-24 inches at between 60 and 90% power. Ive got a few different heights so I'm within the right range hopefully.

Had a heatwave in the UK and temperature control was impossible!

Hopefully have some great pictures to share soon.

Thanks again!

Haha I wish it was as simple as that! I've had so many problems and cut so much dead foliage I thought starting again was an option!

12 hours makes a massive difference...
