I am living in India want to prepare a soil for my first indoor grow . I selected autos to grow this is my first time these happy frog promix hp these brands don’t deliver in my country.
Build your own soil:
1 part Coco/Peat
1 part aeration = Pumice, Vermiculite, etc
1 part compost you make in your own back yard
… see what happens

In India I’d guess coco would be cheap. I add a touch of lime as well.

Howdy Naku!
Exciting stuff, your first grow. What genetics are you running? As for the soil, that looks way too dry to be holding a little seed. You want to keep the top soil nice and moist for the first week. I only lightly water and check on it periodically to lightly water again.
Once that baby pops up, cut a soda plastic bottle in half, poke some holes on top, and cover the seedling with it to keep humidity nice and high.
I don’t know jack about organic growing, so I’ll be learning right there with you. Never made my own compost, would you be able to tell me how you prepared yours? Best of luck amigo.

Today morning while shifting I put my pot down but I think I didn’t harm tap root after that I just fill the pot same
I break down pot shifting but plant was alright untill yesterday it started turning yellow.
Could you be overwatering?
