Awwww shit....here we go again. Blue Tara time! I got a new phone halfway through the week so don't have a lot of pictures. Who wants to see boring pictures of germination and dirt anyway! I've amended the soil from my last grow with some worm castings and put it right back to work. The soil is half Happy Frog and half SoHum. It seems to be working pretty well so far. Stay tuned folks. -Map

Transplanted into 1 gals at the end of this week and moved the light a few inches away. I read that less light intensity directly after transplant is good and moving the light up is about my only choice right now. My plants are definitely looking a bit worrying right now! Pretty yellow, so I'm going to back off on the watering even though I thought I had it down. Also added another handful of worm castings to each pot. Hopefully they turn around in the next couple days, -Map

Based off week 2 day 7, does this look like an over watering issue or something else? This was the first watering where I soaked their containers. While they were in solo cups I tried to keep watering volume low.

Hey buddy, Older and lower leaves turning yellow is a sign of nitrogen deficiency.So you need to feed your baby.But be gentle on dosage.Don’t go for full strength, you can increase later.Happy growing...

Basically an entire week of recovering from last weeks issues. Plants are starting to bounce back and green up again. The extra worm castings and bone meal I added will hopefully help with the recovery and I'll be able to transplant again in about another week. -Map

This grow keeps wanting to challenge me and that's fine! Not sure if it's the strain or the soil I tried to recharge and reuse. The plants got greener from last week, but now the shortest one is showing brown spots the last few days (Calcium deficiency?) I top dressed with some Lime so hopefully after that gets watered in it'll help. I also topped these on day 6, after the picture was taken. -Map

OK, so my plants kinda look like shit and it's starting to worry me. I figure as long as I get them strong and green before flower I'll be ok. But that is definitely proving to be harder than my first grow. Plants are all pretty yellow and now getting some defects to the leaves. I've been pHing water, added lime and worm castings within the past few weeks, etc. I would have liked to be done vegging them in another week but it seems we're still a ways off if I want any real yield. Defoliated some lower branches. Going to grab some more organic Nitrogen and hope that works since my other methods have not. -Map
