All of these plants were root bound when I up planted. They were all happy in their small pots though it seemed. Now, to me they look kind of unhappy. Lol. I broke the rootballs up pretty good when transplanting so im hoping they are just going through a quick recovery period. Everything looks yellow to me though. The hollyweed mom and orange gogi mom on the right side of the pic are kinda droopy and hungry looking. The 3 plants on the left side of the pic are cherry queens. Not droopy, but look yellowy and hungry to me. They have had a lighter hue to them since early in veg though. Hungry feeders? The 2 @BogSeeds Sour Strawberry in the middle are the only ones that look better since the up pot in my opinion. Im just leary of everything at the moment because everything was going so good in veg and i just up potted and put them under a new light. Went from being under 65 watt quantum boards to being under 450 watts of quantum boards. Too much light too soon? Tranplant shock? Someone suggested adding cal/mag since im using powerful led light now? Maybe just a dose of LITFA for a few more days and see how they look? Maybe im being paranoid because of the new light?

They will be shocked with that big of a change up potting and new light plus a root scruff . I’d give them 3/4 days to perk up could raise your light if light bleaching shows ,a foliar spray on the light green plants should help get them back to normal

Looking at your soil and then looking at mine, it looks like my ratios are off. Forgot to bookmark your mix when you did it. Can you and/or @Jetdro @ifish please confirm…
Sunshine mix#4 @ 30%
Roots organic @ 20%
EWC @ 20%
Perlite @ 30%
(This is from a very foggy memory)

1 part RO/1 part #4/1 part perlite/1 part ewc. Mix it up real good amd then i added .75 part perlite again. I mixed it up wrong the first time. Did not add enough perlite the first time. I think getting enough perlite in it is key.

Many thanks!! Bookmarked!

Edit: and when you water…how much runoff?

…and this soil is good to reuse over a couple times, correct?

In my opinion, that just stresses the plant out. I would suggest not doing that. I would also suggest some mycorrhizal fungi when you transplant. Sprinkle it directly on the roots.

But I dont think that is your problem…

Way too much too soon IMO. Don’t forget you got the efficient 301H diodes, so not only is it more power, but it’s also more efficient power. Are you adding CO2? How far away are the lights, and how big an area?

I suggest dimming them to 50% during veg, then bump it up to about 75% once you flip. As the plants get bigger, they can use more photons.
