looks to be a watering issue to me, just abit too frequently.Ffhf soil. 17 days from sprout. Plan on transplanting tomorrow.
I watered the two larger plants yesterday and they looked fine afterwards. The smaller ones were watered 2 days ago.
Today I woke up to this.
I stuck a probe in the soil and it is moist to wet but not very wet.
I am thinking possibly this is a nutrient issue since I have been feeding with plain water only.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
It looks to me like a watering issue as well. Roots can't breathe if they're too wet.looks to be a watering issue to me, just abit too frequently.
your temp and humidity good?
lights? how close?

Yes there are.Are there holes in the bottom of the cups? I've never grown in solos so may be wrong, but I thought you needed to let the excess water drip out.
Probe your soil in more than one area. Don't water again until the meter begins to show "dry." Pictured below is the one we use. (We have one for each tent.) I like this one because It's a scale of 1 through 10. Others are just a scale of 1 - 4, and I don't fully trust the digital ones.My thing is, if it's from over watering, why do they look worse today than they did yesterday?
Watered 2 days ago.
Soil meter reads moist.
Oh.. I thought moist meant enough oxygen to breath and dry meant time to water.Didn't you just answer you're own question? If overwatered and soil is still moist then roots may still not be getting enough oxygen. So 2 days of low oxygen is worse than one day.

I water when the meter reaches 3 and no less than 2.5. You want it mostly dry, not bone dry.

He's using Happy Frog ... Still looks to me like a watering issue.It could be the FFOF is a bit hot for your young plant
I use happy frog myself I don't think it is the problem, My mistakeHe's using Happy Frog ... Still looks to me like a watering issue.
Up pot. Add extra perlite to the new soil. You’ll be fine. Don’t feed for a while after you up pot because the plants will deplete the nutrients in the soil first. You’ll be fine. Like pike said, patience is the biggest factor in soil, along with a proper wet/dry cycle.My thing is, if it's from over watering, why do they look worse today than they did yesterday?
