ya they were put in on the third or 4th of this month, they came in some tiny pots but i needed to wait for the soil to cool before transplanting:Are you saying you just transplanted these into new soil about a week back?
My guess is that the soil is too nutrient rich, (or pH'd wrong) and that it's having some difficulty making new roots into the surrounding soil.ya they were put in on the third or 4th of this month, they came in some tiny pots but i needed to wait for the soil to cool before transplanting: View attachment 1145358

Some pics of the offending soil? and maybe some backstory on what went into making it? Looks like a lockout of some type, I'm guessing micro nutrients.
soil is mostly "biococo" in each bed with some layers of coast of maine lobster, blueberry, and a local compost and biofish between them with expanded clay for aerationWhat's in that soil?

they came soaking and i only gave them tap water once. some of the other plants have some burning at tips too; it is possible i planted them at the bio fish layer which could be high in nutrients, its what caused the heating initially after building the beds (i think)This pic looks like you’re really over fertilized with the shinny dark green leaves w/burned tips, before you even transplanted.
ive added microbes, worms and other life already, im not sure i need recharge. i have 2 4x8 beds already planted im not sure how feasible it is to mix top soil into it at this point.Coco is not good in organic grows because the plants can't eat it.
Since you made the soil, I'm guessing you are going organic, you need to do 2 things.
1. Get some regular dead dirt from the yard and mix that stuff 50/50 and replant.
2. Get a bag of Recharge and use according to the directions for the first week.
Probably vigorous flushing would be useless in this particular situation. Thoughts?Ok, then you don't need the recharge. But you still need to cut the mix somehow.
Any ideas?
ya cuz there is no runoff, whats this leaf morphology mean though? what nutrient would cause this/ph to interrupt or something locked up. i was hoping mag cuz i forgot to add oyster shells until the end and know calcium mag have some interactionProbably vigorous flushing would be useless in this particular situation.

I'm curious about this statement CN, ie. because the plants can't eat it.Coco is not good in organic grows because the plants can't eat it.

Manganese could be it. It's not as common in soil as it used to be.ya cuz there is no runoff, whats this leaf morphology mean though? what nutrient would cause this/ph to interrupt or something locked up. i was hoping mag cuz i forgot to add oyster shells until the end and know calcium mag have some interaction
Yeah, along those lines, and mostly because coco eats mag like crazy and will screw an organic grow.I'm curious about this statement CN, ie. because the plants can't eat it.
Are you saying this because of the lack of Humic substance content within coco?
So if it was attempted, would need fractions of humics/fluvics, maybe something along the lines of dolimite lime and/or something like this... amended into the soil. The reason why I ask is I've thought about attempting it.Yeah, along those lines, and mostly because coco eats mag like crazy and will screw an organic grow.
not sure how magnesium shavings would help in the coir. if you think its magnesium whats wrong with epsom salts?So if it was attempted, would need fractions of humics/fluvics, maybe something along the lines of dolimite lime and/or something like this... amended into the soil.

Seems like if it could be controlled, there would be many upsides to it.
