sorry i'm back... like I was saying u might not be able to see it on the cam. but some, NOT ALL, plants show some spots of a lighter hue of green. some are yellowing but only in some spots and NOT the whole leaf. some curl but i think thats b/c of the heat & himidity. NOW THAT 2ND PIC IS THAT Y-FORMATION THT I WAS TALKING ABOUT. IT'S GROWING IN 2 DIFFERENT WAYS.....like what i hear ppl. do by cutting or topping- but i NEVER did that.
I mean other then that the top growth is always looking healthy. but in the end maybe someone can look @ these pics and please help.
ANY ADVICE, CRITICISM, SUGESSTIONS, OR IDEAS WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. thanx inadvance. best wishes..............joey

This is just a wild guess with the limited info~It's the dirt!
What dirt/nutes you using?

If they had a "fucking love this shit" button I'd had clicked it.
I took one look at a picture and my nose smelt foul dirt.
.....let the controversy begin.
edit: I hate soil in general.

thanx Corso..... as a noob i get worried over any little change......u should have seen the way i acted after transplanted them LOL..... like i actually did 1 on a person lol.
should i use a little tea dr. earth 4-4-4.? i sprinkled some about 3 days ago. and till it ( w/ worm casting- u can always use that) b/c i was being told it was overwatered. what about co2 i read seltzer water sodium free works good for plants and helps w/ increasing co2, is there ANY truth in that?
best wishes....................joey

go buy a bag....smoke a bowl, and chill brother.
let her take care of herself. I find the less I worry about shit, the better they grow. You'll see, knock a couple of them sluts down, after while you'll get it.
it needs nothing, let that soil dry out, no nutes AT ALL...no need for considering your probably growing in mg that has osmocote (time released ferts). Not to mention is probably hot as hell right out of the bag.

ehhh, here is a quote from a site.
its a coconut!!! lol, no seriously your growing in a coconut.
hahah no I'm fucking with you, it is coconut, but its the husk, called coco coir.
Need an organic boost for your soil? Coco Fiber is an excellent way to increase the water absorbing power of potting soil, while also protecting against harmful bacteria and promoting organic farming. These coco fiber soil amendments are widely used for hydroponics, soil mixes, and container planting.
Coco Pith (also known as Coir) is a natural byproduct of coconut plantations. It's a renewable resource with several advantages over peat moss. It holds water without any additives, and absorbs water evenly without any beading on the surface. Coir also has more nutrients, a neutral pH balance, and remains effective for up to 5 years.
This coco brick is free from seeds and pathogens. They naturally inhibit infection from Pithium and Phtothora and increase the carbon exchange capacity of your yard. This property helps plants get the carbon that they need to develop strong stems and recover from bug damage. Potting Soil made from Coconut Fiber is an excellent amendment for clay soils because it helps loosen up the compact ground and increase water retention.
Moving plants from place to place can be harsh on their roots. It takes a little bit of extra care to help them survive the transition from growing trays into pots and from pots into your yard. You can transplant and pot plants with confidence using premium coconut fiber.
Why is Coco Fiber better than Peat Moss?
Coco Fibers resist compacting and retain water year after year. It also is organic and promotes sustainable harvesting on palm plantations. On the other hand, using Peat Moss damages the ecosystem. Peat moss deposits are slow to recover from mining because Peat bogs are similar to coral reefs: each brick that's harvested can take up to 2,000 years to grow back!
Peat moss requires a chemical additive to absorb water, sheds water until the surface is saturated, and compacts easily. Peatmoss is also acidic - it has a pH value of about 4. Peat moss can acidify the soil, scorch roots, and wilt leaves. Peat moss bricks often contain a variety of debris, including sticks and stones. You never know what you'll find in a peat bog!
Coconut Fiber is a proven growing medium. It's a natural alternative to mined peat moss and outperforms most of the popular brands of peat and sphagnum peat. Cocopeat has a high content of lignin and cellulose. These components are ideal for growing mushrooms and other plants that require soil rich in cellulose. Choose coconut fiber bricks to boost the health of your plants and help the environment too!
Technical Details: 10.25 lbs of Coco Fiber (4.6 kg)
Makes 2.5 cu ft of potting medium
Excellent for potting, raised bed planting, and landscaping
100% Organic

i probably would let her root in those small pots and in 2 weeks transplant to bigger pots with a better soil...if you are going to use that scotts buy a bag of perlite to break it up some and drain better... yes the seltzer water works..but gets expensive ...you can try some tea at half strength ..but i would let her dry out very good first... i have used that dark scotts before and it gets like mud when it gets wet so be careful to not to water too often...next time you get soil make sure it has perlite mixed in...good luck

yeah overwatering.... too much love will kill it. allow the soil to dry right out before watering again.

i should have pointed out in the previous post. I do not use coco as an addition to soil. I and most coco growers grow in plain old coco.
I must also advise that this is a form of hydroponics, and will cost much more in nutrients then a soil regimen would, as it is an inert medium and retains very little.

looks like you got buildup by salt and toxic in the soil and pH too....plus heat....I think it will be best thing is to flush your pot...dont feed seelding any nutrient since your MG soil have enough nutes in there...sorry , i cant help you any more...Joey but this is learning process for you...its very important to read the npk on the soil bag....and always add lime to any soils and mix before you plant it..it will buffer ph. I sincerely hope that your seedlings will be fine soon. happy growing bro

THANX GUYS! the MG. is that premium kind, iy does have perlite. izoc i never heard of lime use , sand yes, but not lime. i'll try & pick it up when i get new soil.
I think what happen is that when i transplanted into those pots i was told they were overwatered ....so what could i do but put more fresh soil in it- i think thas why it ,maybe, appears darker around the plant tho. def. NOT USING ANY NUTES.....NOT right now. im grateful for all the feed back....sorry but i was also wondering about the color being lighter sometiems or is that just happen @ times?
THANX BEST WISHES ..............joey
