My clones are not looking good after transplanting.

Platinum cookies (green label)
Banana OG (red label)
Temp stays around 75-80f with 60-70% humidity. Vpd 0.8-1.1

They are under a Gavita 1700e dimmed to 50% and raised up

I originally had them 36” under the light, I feel I may have burned them.

I transplanted last week, 2 days after bringing the clones. They were showing decent roots and i didnt want them exposed too much so I transplanted with great white to mother earth 70/30 coco pearlite mix.

I gave a really light water at first then a couple days later fed with nutrients.

I am feeding with advanced nutrients

Sensi coco a+b
Voodoo juice
B-52
Bud candy
Rhino skin

I added about 1/4 strength and fed.


The platinum cookies look better today but the banana og is not doing well.


Local hydro store told me to flush with water wait til dry and fed them Revive until they bounce back then I could reintroduce nutrients.

First pic was the morning after transplant. The rest were taken today

Any help would be really appreciated!

your correct about the light being close and burning your crops but I also see some plants showing lack of potassium ( yellowing of the fan leaves outer edges) looks like you also need to revise your nutrient ratios. good call on the flush.

yeah my ratios are off. Going forward my additives should be 1/2 the base nutrients from what I am finding. I am way off if that is correct.

Also, I never charged my medium with cal-mag. My base nutrient is suppose to have cal-mag added for coco but I got a bottle incase. The Revive contains Nitrogen Cal Mag and Iron. Hoping that does the trick after the flush.

Thanks I appreciate the help!

Your coco doesn’t have any nutrients in it. You MUST feed coco everyday. After a week of feeding everyday you will see improvement. I’m currently on day 39 of flower in 1 gal pots of coco/perlite. They are being fed 4x a day. Remember, coco is not soil. It must be handled differently for success.

They are barely a week old. Theyve gotten watered 3 times so far and ive been waiting for the medium to get dry before watering again. The coco is pretty moist, definitely dont think I can water everyday, its not drying that fast yet. My plants were just starting to show roots through the rockwool cubes so I transplanted to 1 gal pots.

Smaller pots first and water every day, coco is supposed to be watered every day

Yeah I think I screwed up transplanting too early. The Platinum OG is recovering well but the Banana OG does not seem to be bouncing back as fast.

is it too soon to be giving them any nutrients through foliar spray? I am reading that people are using cal-mag regularly.

Also please keep in mind, they are about 1 week old clones that just barley started showing roots. I didnt have proper cups for them and the roots were being exposed to light so I transplanted a little too early.

Yeah. In coco you can keep them in small pots for longer. I take freshly rooted clones from the cloner, into solo cups with coco/perlite, and immediately getting fed once a day to runoff. Once they start to get to dry daily (as the plant grows) I go to twice a day. I can keep them in solos for a while. But usually they start tipping over and I need to put them into 1 gals.

Usually pull clones from my mother plants. However, I did just finish 2 pheno hunts with regular seeds.

Anyway, to help with your issue. I would start feeding 1.0 EC once a day. Even if they are moist. It will probably take a week or so for them to really take off. But they will get going. If you were in soil I would say wait until they are about half dry. But that is counter productive in coco.

at this age the plants wouldn't be showing any potassium deficiency as you are feeding them AN nutrients that has proper Ratios, its 100% too much light for too long that fried'em.

Put that light at 1m to 1.2m away from the clones at 50-60% max for the first 3-4 weeks. Go easy with those led bars they are crazy strong.

Flushing will not help you for this problem, and it can fuckup your coco buffering.
If you need to flush in coco do so with a light nutrients solution, and right after flushing do a proper strength feed.

And yes feed every watering with inert medias, fertigation, at proper EC for each stage and cultivars.

Thank you guys for all the help!


Okay I was around 200ppm and 0.6 ec so I didnt think I over did it as well.


Now since I never charged my medium with cal-mag should I start implementing it in with my nutrients?

I also hear people feeding cal-mag on water days.

Any suggestions?

Also is it okay to remove the dead/burnt leaves on the banana og?

The Platinum Cookies are looking great showing signs of new growth!
