soo my plants are about 3 weeks old, grown in sunshine mix 2, and are 12/12 from seed. the strains are ata tundra and northern lights. so maybe a bit more than a week ago all the leaves started to droop and go claw-like and are starting go yellow. i thought they needed water and nitrogen so i gave them some nutes. didnt help. so i flushed one to see if that would fix it, nothing happened. so then i thought maybe the roots weren't getting enough oxygen, so i gave them some hydrogen peroxide about 2 days ago, and nothing. so finally today i thought maybe since they are 12/12 from seed, and i had gave them 8-7-6 nutes because they still haven't shown sex, maybe they needed some flowering nutes. so i gave one plant a small amount of 10-54-10 mixed with 0-15-40 nutes to see if it would help, but there doesn't seem to be much, if any improvement from that. im all out of ideas. please help.

oh yeah, i also thought they might be rootbound because the roots were sticking out of the bottom so i transplanted them a few days ago. this clearly was not the problem.

its definitely not too much water so according to you it would be nitrogen toxicity. how would i go about fixing this? just give plain water for the next bit or water with the 0-15-40 to kind of balance out the nutes?

no if anything you would want to flush out any nutes that have built up in the soul what happens is the plant gets locked up its not able to take in any nutes due to an overabundance of certain nutrients

grind your doing too much it shouldn't be this much work i catch myself over doing it its human nature that weed plant doesn't get near the chems and ferts in the wild ,if it were me you said you've transplanted recently with fresh soil, don't feed it just water when it gets dry and the container feels light and see if it improves give it time and stop killing it with kindness
