Bro that last post was not ment 4 u sorry. SNOLEPERD
You may want to add a little pearlite, it does not look like you added much, as 4 water , water drain and feel how heavy it wheys, when it gets lite time 2 water , you do use clay or grow stones 4 drainage after watering if you don't drain and the water will pool at the bottom , as 4 pearlite it adds nitrogen it allso airate your mix so your plant can get it's roots moveing around your pot, that's my opinion.your friend.

I like these because the roots can grow into themGrowstones are great, my shop was out so I ended up with that dog chow, you don't use pearlite? Pearlite adds nitrogen to your plant & allso airate your soil so it won't compact, but if it works 4 you great, I don't use much myself but I do use it, your friend. SNOLEPERD
Are you running high blues?@Snoleperd @45North
Update, I believe she was becoming rootbound in such a small container, hence her droopiness. It could also be overwatering as well. Hopefully she takes well to this transplant and things start going better. I had to get rid of the others unfortunately. Too limited on space so I picked my three strongest. Hopefully they are all girls.
Are you running high blues?
I think you nailed your issue.
Explosive root growth. How tight are the nodes?
I use high blue ratios in my early veg to promote root growth and tight nodes. (6 3 gal. In a4x4. Keeps my height to @ 31/2’) then I add some red and raise the light height. I do have full spectrum control.(very steep learning curve)
Your on the right track, trust your gut, I think they are about to expose in growth
Are you saying that I should have put clay pellets on the bottom of my pot before adding my compost? Also I switched them into an organic compost I bought from the store, how do I know when to add more nutrients? I have FloraTrio but since I used a potting mix initially with them as babies idk when I should give more nutrients.Your plant was definitely bound, I did not notice any clay pellets 4 drainage, my plants are bound all the time you would not be alive the abuse they can handle , however if you don't drain the plant after watering the water will pool at the bottom of the pot, when I say drain I mean drain then I airate a little, yes there are all kinds of lights, and other stuff 2 learn, but stick to the basics remember it's better to give your plant good mix, good drainage, good food, and love, some corners u can not cut. I took flack beacuse I use led spot light bulbs from home depo they are full spec, i still use them 4 supplemental light before I got my veg master I grew several plants just with spots from home depo, I know the light is not perfect but it works, I'm poor I would love 2 have the best light in the world but u do the best u can, I only grow autos now but I saved my cash and bought a bloom booster what I'm trying 2 say is there are some corners u can't cut, but if u use your imagination anything's possible, 1 more suggestion start off with an easy plant like northern light, it's stupid easy & you should not have 2 prune much or at all, don't stop don't get discouraged, if you need help just ask, yours.

Much happier! With your height restrictions in a cabinet, you have a lot of work ahead. Think SCROG. Be ready to top those babies and bring their arms out horizontally. Personally I would run a lowRyder auto in that cab.Immediately after transplant and 18 hours later comparison
Is it too early to start topping? I'm really aiming to try and get a short bush grow, still trying to figure out how to SCROG, like how high above the plants currentlyMuch happier!

U must put growstones or clay pellets it look like dog chow first put the pellets at the bottom of the pot covering the drainage holes, this must b done, then add your mix, when u water u water and then drain till no water comes out the holes, your ph is way off & drowned ur plant.

I grow autos they say don't feed 4 20 days, but I go organic, I acclimate my plant from day 1.SNOLEPERDAre you saying that I should have put clay pellets on the bottom of my pot before adding my compost?
