Your soil may be a little too "hot" for small plants. I use FF potting soil and I've had that same issue. I add a lot of perlite to the mix. The best advice and can give you. (And it worked for me) is a week before transplanting fill the pots with the soil and water with RO water. Mixing the soil once wet several times a day so it gets fairly dry. Then water again. And repeat prices two or three times inside the week before transplant. That way your not only flushing a bit your soil. But you're also bringing all the mycorrhizae fungus to live so they start eating the nutrients making them available instead of just minerals in the soil. Again. It worked for me. No more nute burn for seedlings. Good luck

I'm using FF Ocean Forest soil for the first time as well as growing clones for the first time. I understand there are nutrients in the soil and I won't need to add any for a month or more. After they developed healthy roots, I planted them in solo cups using this soil, and once they began to thrive, I transplanted them into 1/2 gallon pots, using the same soil. (I'll move them to 3 gallon pots eventually and finally.) But several of my clones (I have ten) are beginning to show what appears to be nute burn.

Is there something I should do? Or should I just wait and, eventually, they will adjust or the nutrient level in the soil with level out?
