I culled a Jack the Ripper today that was planted 11-28 then transplanted 12-17 into a 10 gallon bag of Roots Organic soil. It looked horrible compared to my other two JTR's and didnt see this plant getting better. Now the question is can I reuse that dirt, or should I just toss it into the garden outside? I hate buying dirt, it requires me walking with that 40 pound bag about a mile. I don't have a car. Though I just hiked 1350 on the Appalachian trail last summer, so carrying a load isnt that bad. Is that soil going to be infected with something weird? Im not sure why this one looked so odd. I planted three JTR's the same day, same everything, just different bags of dirt. They were all side by side under a T5 light, and I rotated them, so they got to switch spots under the light. Same amount of water from the same bucket, same nutes. So what are the chances that this bag of dirt is just bad and needs to be added to the yard?
The first two pics are the plant which currently resides in my garbage can, the second are the good healthy looking ones.
