Second grow here. Can anyone tell me whats going on with these two plants? Growing in FF Ocean Forest Soil. I know I used too much Azos (Xtreme Gardening) when transplanting. I already know it's the Azos I just want to know what malady the plant has. Is it lockout? Nutrient burn? Something else?

How old the plant? Is it 1 plant topped or 2 plants. Clone? How were the roots going into transplant? Are you checking the water temp before watering?

Topping and repotting at the same time is pretty stressfull to the plant.
Its just going to be stunted for a bit, trying to heal from the topping and grow roots at the same time.

Plants are five weeks old. Both are mainlined from seed in Dixie cups. The roots were a beautiful pale white when transplanted. I dont check water temps. I sprinkled with way too much Azos which is a bacteria like mycorrhizae but affects nitrogen levels. It is much more potent than mycorrhizae.

I didn't top and transplant at the same time.

Do you think it's a lockout or nitrogen toxicity?

I could be wrong but i think you are locked out due to water being to cold and/or the enviournment being too cold. Which in turn obviously makes your root zone way to cold and the roots hating that.
IMO I believe your water should be 68-72 degrees and your room temps should be around 80-82. This is just what i have success doing in veg stage.

Reason being, I topped them this morning before I took the pic. They'd been looking this way for about three days. Why would I lie? I'm trying to figure out what's going on. I can't do that if I'm not giving truthful details.

Odin, why do think the Azo are having a negative effect?
Asking because I heavily dust my rootballs with azo and haven't experienced this.

Whats your water source?

Could it be a ph problem? You did not mention your ph. The twisting and discoloration suggest to me that something is off in the root zone. Good luck!

Really?! If it's not the Azos then I dont know what it is. I think it's the Azos bcuz I forgot to add it to three other plants and they look very healthy. The other three that I heavily dusted with Azos are having problems.

I use tap water that has rested for four days. I ph it to 6.4 after adding nutes.

I think I am having a similar problem, my water is too cold...
