Hello everyone, took some time away after my first grow and this one has had some problems getting started, but I'm trying to get back on track.
Some background: It has been 3 weeks since I planted ungermed seeds, 2 weeks for the smaller plants. All planted in Fox Farms Ocean Forest mixed with ~30% perlite
Plants in fabric pots were transplated 3 days ago, some were a bit sloppy and I might have done some root damage.
I discovered my PH meter was broken, so these plants have likely had feeding between 5.9 - 7.3 at different points, but that's fixed now.
They were getting ~12,000 LUX measured from a Dr. Meter, after transplanting I turned light up to 15-17k, but turned it back down yesterday after plants showed they're stressed out. They were getting 24 hours of light, now giving them 6 hours of sleep every day. Light is a Kingbrite 3500k LED Quantum Board, about 3 ft above.
Currently trying to keep the RH around 45% but it dropped as low as 39% yesterday.
Also, initially the light was too low and I had too much stretching, so I buried more of the plants stems, which is why they aren't growing straight upright.
Any advice of how I can help these plants get healthy again? Thanks in advance.
