After Replanting Looking Sick

So I decided to replant her again, actually it was more like soil change. And now its been 2 days since replantment.

View attachment 1975507

Now she looks very bad. Could someone give me some advice what to do next? :sad:
I have only waterd her, should I give some nutes?
The soil is 1/3 peat, 1/3 vermiculite and 1/3 perlite.

Thanks

Looks like to much water? I see medium on the side of the pot that looks like it floated there??

Peat lowers pH, and vermiculite and peat hold a lot of water, I would remove the 2 leaves on the bottom...."more energy" to reestablish itself, also when you water only water down the center of the plant, people seem to flood the top of the pot as they think this is the only way all the roots will get water..... the water will disperse out to all the medium when only a small amount is used in the center of the pot.

I use 50%/50% canna coco and perlite as a seedling mix, it would be VERY hard to over water with this mix.

she don't like it, that's for sure. yes, try giving her small amounts of food see it works. make sure you get the pH right for hydro. what soil was she in before?

i damaged my critical+ cause my ph meter fucked up. fixed it within a few days flushed her and got the soil back up to the right ph. was monitoring the ph levels for the next three weeks, new growth came in fine then the leaves under went all yellow until it spread to the whole leaf by which time new growth came through and it moved onto the next one. tried my hardest to keep her alive but i gave up in the end. might be worth starting over.

keep them in plain potting soil for the first four weeks and a close eye on the ph. seeing a lot of complaints where people have put plants in soil designed for full grown plants and its just far too hot for them.

This soil is nutrientless and I have the pot on a grate so remaining water flows thru.
I feed her today and lets see what happens.
The prob is that I dont have a ph meter to test the level.
Also I noticed that the leaves are turning up like the last time I replanted her, maybe she is still in shock and will recover?

if you can't get a digital ph meter, get a liquid one from the pet store, it's good enough for a while...
