I switched my light cycle to being on at night and off during the day in order to stabilize day/night temps better. I'll probably transplant to a 2 or 3 gallon pot next week.

Wolfjorgensenstarted grow question 5 years ago
Has anyone seen this issue with leaves curling and turning dark after about a week of growth. I'm using store bought spring water ph'd to 6.5-6.8. Only watering once a week.

Hey there so over watering can cause this droop effect, but being in only 1 gallon pots and your plants arent just little seedling, they're nice looking young veg plants. Under watering can cause this similar symptom, hows your fans? Do you have some that are going all day or most of the day? The majority of your photos seems pretty dry soil, not muddy or extremely dark with water. Watering once a week doesn't sound excessive to me. When you do water, do the plants perk up or do they stay the same? If they perk upwards then they're under watered, if not then look into extending you waterings a few days more than a week, or up your air flow around the top and bottom of your grow space. You could also try a mild feeding of kelp extract as this is a common "plant tonic ". Happy growing friend, I'm sure they'll battle through since their over all health doesn't seem too severely bad as of yet.

@experimentGREEN, I have a 4" inline exhaust fan that is always running on a low setting. I have a small stationary fan at the bottom to move air around. It seems the leaves that haven't been effected yet may perk up some after watering but the ones that are curled never recover.

@Wolfjorgensen, hmmm well the leaves perking up is a good sign, that's a great way to tell they want water. The curled ones though, is it just a few, or are you noticing more happening? Because if its only a few older leaves with the claw...maybe they got nutrient damage or something else and just can't recover. I had some leaves that got damaged in veg state and when i noticed they weren't healing i removed them and let the plant grow more.

Is that the size of a solo cup? If yes, I would suggest pull it all out and add another inch of moist soil to the bottom, as I believe you are trying to grow a nice, healthy root system for transplanting later on. Just dump it upside down on your hand and add 1 inch, or 5cm or whatever of damp soil into cup, then put back in before the roots get there. Else, be prepared to transplant early, say in one week to her big girl pot.

@Wolfjorgensen, if done right, plants will suffer 0 damage during a transplant. However, I would put them in 3gal pots, not 1gallon.

@BeefWellingtons, Well I just did it and my technique was a bit sloppy. The dirt ball crumbled and the limp root system flopped over the back of my hand. I was able to get it covered quickly. The roots are bigger than I expected so I will probably be moving to a 1 gallon pot in a few days. I just hope it can survive the shock of two transplants on such a short period of time.

@BeefWellingtons, Thanks for the tip. I was thinking about that last night.

I love seeing a new grow start on this site. I can't wait to see what methods you employ to grow your plants and I look forward to checking back in to see how things develop. Best wishes my new friend.

To answer your question: Two issues here. The first is transplant shock when you transplanted two weeks ago, it was too soon and so the rootballl could not held the soil together and the roots were damaged. The second issue is some over watering, you are watering until you completely saturate the pot, which in this case is wrong, you need to give it much less water, for now let the soil dry up before watering again and when you do water, give it a cup of water, no more.

Hey so im seeing you transplant into smart pots? So my seedling cup took about 1 week to fully dry and thats a comparable scale (my tiny seedling and pint cup to your 1 gallon air accessible pot and several week old plant. Im definitely leaning towards underwater not over...and perhaps you may have made roots slightly unhappy but they'll correct themselves.

Thanks to everyone for the help. I will consider all the information you have given me.
