Help! What does anyone think is wrong with my plant? Was doing fine in solo cup with drainage. It’s about 4 weeks old from sprout and looked good. Roots were not bound and had very nice white color. Leaves were healthy I knew I had to get it in a larger container. Within 2 days I had this claw affect. I reported into 3 gallon pot and watered with tap water that had set for 48 hours. Now 3 days later the plant looks the same. No other plants have this issue. Before repotting I was using General Hydroponics Veg and Micro nutes at 1/2 strength and only when the top inch of soil was dry and my cup was noticeably light weight. Since repotting I have used water only. btw these were free seeds, I don’t even know what they are. I figured free was good for a first time go around to practice on. Light has been at 16/8, temp mid 70’s down to 63 with humidity ranging from 40-60 prior to this issue. My larger plants that are about 6 weeks from sprout and are doing great. If anyone had an idea of the possible strain then take a guess. View attachment 4515010

To me it looks like its too wet (the media) and if its soil dont use GH nutrients or any salt based nutirents in soil, try something organic like dry granular amendmends and if you are not knowledgeable on mixing soil then i would suggest buying a premade potting soil (i use Fox Farm Ocean Forrest and Happy Frog as a base potting soil, i amend with organic dry granular nutrients, and i add super soil when i re-pot for flower... your temps should be warmer then that as well shouldnt be letting it get into the 60's at all unless its night time and the light should be 18hrs and 6 dark or 24 hours on until the flip, the 16/8 is still enough light to keep it vegging but you may run into some preflower issues or early flowering if you dont adjust the light times a little (depending on the strain of course) but light stress and over watered and cold is what that looks like to me... honestly stop feeding your soil hydro nutes though residual salt deposits in the soil from those nutes could lock the water out of your soil and make it impossible for you to water your plant

Also try some compost tea in the soil once a week, helps intake food and keep the plant healthy, the benificial microbes help guard the plant in the rootzone and make its food more readily available for the plant to eat and helps with improving plants natural respones to alot of things

All great replies. I’ll stop GH nutrients and do a good flush. My soil is half Fox Farm Ocean And Happy Frog. I add extra perlite to my soil. It only got to 60 one time and that was at a much smaller stage, just a glitch that happened. All other plants have been fed, watered and everything the same as this one. I’ll give the flush a try.

ok so I’ve thought about the advice y’all have given me and I thought that the GH was ok for soil before I bought it. So I go back and look and it says you can use in soil but to flush after every 3 nutrient feedings. I haven’t flushed at all. I’ve got to do that. So is this common for all plants to be done identically but then only have one or a few have this issue? That is the part that stumps me.
