Why don’t you think that’s a nitrogen problem? I used a huge amount throughout the medium without spreading it too well.... on my transplant I saw clumps of it like a wall in the medium , I think it stressed the roots man.....
i have had the grow going 4 and a half weeks , transplanted from seedling to 8â€container and that’s when I used the perlite , 2 weeks went by and the plants were getting worse with slow growth , I’ve transplanted again and without perlite and tried to spread the clumped perlite as I transplanted into the 10†container , 3gallon. Two of the plants are already seeing improvements since transplant , other two are not improving to fast. I feed the plants a b12 supplement and a root enhancement from Advanced , and a 2 part Grow nute from the local hydro store, and they get fed every other watering. I veg for 23 hours with 1 hour in the morning off just to put a small sleep in there veg cycle. I forgot one night after a week of 23 hours on 1 hour off , to do the 1 hour off and they did a 24 hour cycle, one light cycle fuck Up in veg shouldn’t fuck them. I have done almost the exact same thing the last two of My grows and never experienced this, but I’ve never ever used that much fertilized perlite on my first transplant, I only ever use a little bit on the top of medium to help with water draining ..... I can’t gwt away from the perlite idea but who knows , maybe I mis calculated the two part formula one feeding? I remember spilling a small amount of the B portion and not re doing my calculation to make sure it was exact with A portion of nutrient , about two weeks ago and going ahead and feeding still..... this sticks out in my head too.... but this is only my 3rd Grow , só educate me please, cause I haven’t had someone slap me In The face with the answer yet
