Yellow leaves!! After transfer!!

biglGlo420 · Aug 12, 2024

Plant Profile: Daisy
Age: 2 weeks and 13 hours( indoor plant)
Issue: Yellowing leaves

I'm seeking advice on a problem with my young plant, Daisy. She's just over 2 weeks old and has recently developed yellow leaves After transfer. I've attached before and after photos showing the change. The bottom two leaves have turned yellow, while the upper leaves remain normal.

Current care routine:

Watering: Daily, using a water bottle cap amount
Light exposure: 14 hours of sunlight per day

I would greatly appreciate any suggestions on how to address this yellowing issue and improve Daisy's health. Thank you in advance for your expertise.

The Cotyledons? the two round ones on the bottom?

Those leaves are gonna die totally normal. They’re there to give the baby plant enough nutrients to take off.

I would water every other day, weed likes a chance to dry out.

Can’t wait to see how it grows

I get it. I’m a few months into my first grow. Keep stressing myself out. This is a good place for advice, if you can make it thru the sarcasm.

Yeah, I think generally they're ignored and they usually do die off at totally random times and you pay attention to all other leaves except those two. I think those are there only go like break out of the seed or something and get the plant going and then they're insignificant. I don't know the whole story on them though.

This my first plant also! Did you start indoor then transfer out? I was debating if I should wait until flowering to start leaving it outdoors our just go full term indoors.

Is there anything specific you think I should feed my plant or should i just wait until it hits four weeks?

If it's your first grow, I wouldn't feed it anything at all. It also depends on what you're growing it in. Some people need to add, some people shouldn't be adding. I think it takes a person to adjust feeding to their own personal environment. But, my suggestion is going as simple as you can and then taking that experience and trying something different the next grow.

I was flying totally blind

I germinated some old bag seeds (that’s a term for seeds that come in weed you buy, took me a bit to learn that). I soaked them in a jar of water for 24 hours. Whatever sprouted then went in dirt, the others got put into wet paper towels.

I started them on my window sill probably for like the first month. Then I moved them out after transplanting and almost killed them

I have a whole grow diary if you wanna learn from my mistakes. Outside would be good, I’m in california so I’m biased. Do you know what kind of strain it is? Is it an auto flower or a photo period? If it’s not an auto you probably missed the outdoor window. If it is an auto you can do whatever you want. I had two auto flower plants start today.

I attached some shots of my plants progress this year for fun.

Lol yes exactly!!! SAME and I didn't even know the term. I'm growing blue berry cheese cake. Jist started about 2 weeks ago And don't even get me started you have a diary lol I have time-lapse of every day with notes kinda embarrassing but it feels nice to rewatch the progress of everything especially if you can speed it up. Same California has the best weather but it's been a little hard because the sun goes into hiding around 3pm then I transfer to a designated light source that's about 20 inches high

As said, don’t sweat the cotyledons dying off. A couple observations, you want to water when the cup gets light, don’t overwater. Also, she needs a bit more light she’s getting a little leggy. I wouldn’t worry about nutes until after you transplant. Best of luck on your grow.

Thank you, I've tried to give her as much sun as I can but the sun goes into hiding around 3pm so I transfer her to a designated light source that's 16-20 inches high

Are you far north? I’m in hollister which is centralish and the sun is still out lol.

If it’s not an auto flower then you’re gonna wanna keep up with the light till she gets bigger.

Do you know if it was feminized? Cuz you might put her out, and she’ll start flowering and show you her nuts

I would 100% have a timelapse camera if I could find a good enough reason. Think about it all the time. I get stressed about my plants growing slow until I see photos from a month before.

Time lapse brings so much peace especially when it can show a year in 30sec or less

1.Yes
2. Idk but i check on her every 30mins to an hour
3. No I would have to do my research on that. This seed is a miracle seed, the only one out of 7 that survived lmao
