OK man I’ll give it a read but I’m telling every outdoors growers the main key is water, water, water, and lots of ferts.
I was on this other link the other day and it said how to grow big pot…
I read the whole article and I shit u not he said give your plants lots of nitrogen at first and lots of water and nutes.
Then this guy said once you think you gave your plants enough water and ferts give them more. I totally agree with that…

If you are giving synthetic fert that is one thing. If not, the biology in the tea will break the nutrients doe. Into useable form for the plants. This will. Obviously happen naturally, but tea will increase the soil biology and make it happen faster. There are also other benefits such as pest and disease resistance as well. Read about it a bit and see what you think my friend.

I think they are going to be ok. Did that yellow show up after Xplant?
Also, what is your water source and did you check the pH?

It did show up after. I’m using rainwater, so I haven’t worried about ph. I’ve been aerating it before I water. I’ve also been rotating compost and casting tea in.
The Sunday Supreme has been saggy pretty much her whole life.

Might be a bit of transplant shock as well.
Rainwater can be acidic (depends what you are downwind of), wouldn’t be a bad idea to check the pH - just for peace of mind.
I like the drops, ‘close enough for government work’.

I figured as much with transplant shock. It got hot fast here also. That doesn’t help

They look happy. You can definitely tell a happy plant when it’s leaves are out and up.

I can’t remember which Cheech and Chong movie it was but the topic of ‘sickly looking’ weed came up and the answer was “piss on them and they’ll perk right up”
I’m paraphrasing badly. But my point is (I think I still have one) 
That is solid old school hippy advice. 
and it’s organic!!

Shhh don’t let the secret out! Lol any there’s people here that states it hypes our EGO! Whatever Is my response! !it’s just an overall better thing for the earth ! Plastic bottles , all that measuring BS , extra equipment , phosphorus run off that gets in the waterways and ends up with Hugh dead areas in the gulf I just don’t get it , you two are doing the right thing I haven’t had any dispensary weed that was worth talking about and tastes like chemical most if not all the time … nice clean high is all Iv every had with my own!

I’d say watch with blood meal amounts , large amounts combined with carbon Like stuff can start cooking organic matter in soil I personally do use it for that reason … I would use it in creating a compost pile for a N source, EWC provides a decent amount of N is all ya need ! Do you access to down to earth products? I like their all-purpose amendment has over 1/2 dozen good things added to it I top dress with it occasionally.

Not sure if you had a chance to check out my thread “ magical potions and elixirs “ taking from a a book I had , that is a master gardener jerry baker I believe is his name ! PISS is a good N source and yes I do piss in my ortho sprayer and water my lawn with it! Doesn’t cost me anything other than the sprayer cost and water usage!
Takes me about 2 sessions to fill it ! Lol

I use all down to earth products in my soil (the ones they make anyhow). I haven’t used the all purpose. There bio live looks pretty great too, ever tried that? Those plants got a nice dose of ewc tea this morning. Thanks for the link tinytuttle. I’m gonna do some reading on that for sure.
That’s a huge reason I started growing again. Dispensary weed doesn’t taste good. It’s mostly Hydro, pumped out as fast as possible. Exactly like you said, it tastes like chemical.
