wow... after all this soil transplant and all my plan ts are still messed up!! only ONE is groing ok.. the rest are all sagging, and one of thems leaves are all curled UP, and when i tested the PH it was at 6.
I guess after adding lime, then the fish emulsion, it lowered the ph alot so i just added somemore hydrated lime + water... if this dosent fix it i dont know what to do? why else would they be growing so slow/sagging/bent leaves
Stop it with the water. Let them dry out, you want the roots to search out water. That leads to regeneration,and new growth. You are going to kill them plants if you don't stop trying to help them.

I wouldn't throw them out at all.. let the soil completely dry out for a day or two then water them good. After a transplant droopieness can happen.. Just be patient and let it get rooted well.
Don't throw the plant out man.:eek:

i definately wont throw them out, but now the one in the 1st pic that is all curled up is getting worse so ill just let them sit out and dry up but it does not look like they will look any better.. or is it just that they will look like crap until it dries completely...

your stressing them to shit man,, leave the damn plants alone,, adding everything you can think of WILL NOT fix anything.
read up man,, you need to learn the basics.. then ask questions,, if you wont help yourself,,, no one can help you....:dont know:
Thankyou Newf...........:newf:

yes, I'd actually suggest to stop doing sth. for at least a few days.

yea i guess i dont realize how much i am doing shit to them (4 hours a DAY LOL!!) shows how much of a noob i am.. well I wont touch them for a while and maybe they have to get worse before they get better or something, but i wont touch them until the soil is like the sahara and then hopefully they will come around...
by the way... lol ... should i top my biggest one? i can count 5 nodes... or should i definately wait a few days for them to recover haha
Leave them alone..........
