Slightly white fan leaves (not just on the tips, but every “razor”) after a re pot, and first two true leaves slightly droopy (3.5 weeks)

[Samoses]

Hi guys

This is a 25 day auto amnesia haze ,

She was doing ok. But was quite slow in growth , and I realised the medium I had chosen was clogging at the bottom and drainage was poor, it happened quick,
Go easy as I’m new to growing !

So I re potted her, into a much larger pot, and then left her out of the intense heat for a few days ,

I don’t think it’s a nitrogen burn, as it’s not just the tips,

(I did do that to her earlier on the second set of true leaves tips burnt very slightly )

Anyway, it seems pretty happy, but I just wondered why just the bottom single fan leaves are slightly droopy, and this very faint white tips ,

Any info very much appreciated ,

Oh the medium I was using was coco / perlite, but it was the peat I had added, it was too wet and claggy, so now she is draining much better, has an inch of gravel at the bottom, and then a better peat / perlite and coco ,

Feeding her every other feed

But considering she was waterlogged, I havnt done for 4 days ,
Let the new pot dry her out ,

I also made sure to fluff up the new pot every now and again, keep the oxygen flowing ,

Also, does anyone know what these little shiny marks are ? It looks like a slug trail, but that’s impossible , and they are tiny , about quarter of an inch long ,
Cheers

those are the cotyledons, also known as the 'seed leaves'. they are suppose to die off and turn yellow. They are the food for the seed naturally. They help make it survive and thrive. With the next set of leaves that came out being referred to as the "true leaves" Those are what you want to read. from the rest of the plant.

Hey mate , thanks for the reply, yeh I don’t mean the cotyledons, but the first set of true leaves , is that just them still getting over the overwatering ? Now it’s drained better and In a nice new pot , it’s shooting up,

But they have definitely faded slightly, which concerns me, as I managed to do a nitrogen burn, but that’s a classic sign of low nitrogen ?!?!?

Thanks

Im not really seeing anything wrong with the plant? are you talking about the little white specs? i see some signs of the tip burn like you were giving them nutes too soon? just keep it adequately watered. dont over water and let it bounce back if they start to fade more give it a small amount of food til it perks. id ride on the side you are still giving too much by the tips until it shows true fading to show its under. Or you risk reburning the plant. sorry i was confused cause all i saw faded (besides the tip burn) was the cotyledons. Idk if its indoor or outdoor, but make sure your light isnt too close and its not getting too hot for the white spec. Thats generally only time i get true whitening is when i harden my plants and they are getting used to sunlight vs artificial. with other options being chemical burn or pest.

If you zoom in you can see it’s on almost every leaf! ...

If it doesn't wipe off it's not likely wpm, didn't look like it but it's the same color did you spill anything on it?

Thats what im thinking is nutes touched on the leaf or something

No not that I can think of, it’s hard to explain, photo doesn’t do it justice , just sparkles a bit like slug trail, it’s not damaged the leaves etc, I’ll just observe for now I think

Right , yeh well I’ve used a jug , and it’s a very very diluted mixture , I’ve poured straight to the sides of the pot, but when they are smaller, could easily have been a little splash I suppose ,
Thanks man

Flip one of those leaves that has the white spot on it over and take a picture of the underside of it

I know it looks white, but it’s actually shiny like mercury , weird

 

[Samoses]

Not light burn is it ?

 

[Beachwalker]

Don't think so, and I'm not sure I've ever seen it before either??

 

[Beachwalker]

does it look like this

..get a picture underneath the leaf and also search wpm 'white powdery mildew', not saying that's what it is but take a look for yourself

It’s not PM .

That was my second post but I still don't know what the hell it is so I'm coming back around the block?! Lol ..he says it's silver?! Still trying to see the underside of a leaf
