I don't know if anyone can help or not. My plant had been doing fine until I moved it to a bigger pot on Monday. I did everything by the book....root system was established, move went well. The next day, it looked very droopy so I assumed maybe i gave it too much water. Over the next few days, the drooping got worse and the leaves started to curl. Then the bottom leaves turned yellow and died. Thinking it was transplant shock, I tried some kelp extract but it's still getting worse. Anyone have ideas? Is it possible to save it? I'm including a timeline of pictures. The kelp was added Friday (4 days after transplant). Some details....its in organic soil. I use Fox Farm nutrients. Full spectrum led grow light. 18 hours light / 6 hours dark. 76 degrees.

it looks like there was something going on before the transplant. tips of the bottom leaves looked burnt. Water PH off, possible nute burn. -
I'll start by saying I'm a newbie but my guess from the look of the soil is that the roots might not be getting enough oxygen...what kind of medium are you using?Comment

No it does not have perlite or coco mixed in. And I'm guessing it's too late for that now....Comment

Let your plant dry out for a couple days, let it stretch out its roots looking for water, drop your PH to 6.5 and like mentioned above drainage can be/become I issue so next time add some perlite.
do you water till a trickle of runoff and let the plant dry out before watering again?Space for Rent.Comment

Ok thank you! I'll try that! And yes, I do let it dry out before watering again. Other than the tips of one of the leaves having discoloration, I really didn't have any issues until I moved it to the new pot. I just wish I knew exactly what went wrong so I dan correct it.Comment

It could be 18hr is a long time and organic is being lacking. It needs food.Comment
