Probably in shock from transplant. Looks over watered to me but not too sure. I think it will get better in a couple of hours or days. Good luck.

over watered? ok. i thought they might have been under watered. but im a noob at this. the plant is 3 to 4 feet tall. i waited a long time for the flowering stage. the transplant was done about 4 days ago so i think thats not it.are the nutes im feeding it good? any other suggestions anyone?

As a self confessed noob i dont think YOU should be ruling things out. Believe me, repotting a plant followed by adding nutes and changing the light cycle is going to cause massive shock. The clawing of the leaves is indicative of overwatering for sure. Dont water for a while and things should get better.

My watering/feeding schedule is totally irrelavant to you. You need to find out what your plant likes based on stage of growth, medium, light strength, temps, ph etc etc. Also get to know your strain. Some strains are very temparemental and show drastic signs of over/underwatering when you give them a few 100ml more or less than usual. Dont water your plants for a while and you will see a difference in them every day, take mental notes of how the plant looks 1/2/3/4/days after watering and so on and so forth. Then you will understand what it needs a little better.

well i water when i see the soil get dry . i will let it get completely dry. maybe a day or 2. i put the nutes in the water i use to water them. maybe it was the transfer or the light cycle or everything at once. thanks for the advice . i will post new pics in 2 days hopefully it will get better. what do you guys think about how tall it is? is it to big? should i continue the nutes and the 12/12 light cycles?

use your fingers and push one into the dirt damp means leave it a day or more recheck if it feels dry dusty then water... Every 2 to 3 days about 2 litre in the pot your in.. just try to water enough in a circle around the pot to get the lower roots and hairs sipping.. i water till it comes out the drainage alittle... let us know how its going gl

I water twice a week. On the weekend and on Weds. I have had no problems with overwatering. It's better to let it dry out a little than it is to have it wet all the time.

Having said that, the plant looks good. Just let it dry out a little.

well it looks a lot better now. the problem was i wasn't watering enough. i was watering with a spray bottle and it didnt get wet enough. the reason i say that is because when i water it the leaves pop up and it looks good and when i dont water it they slooped down. also i put the plant in my closet now instead of the garage were it was much cooler. it is 68f in my house so its all good. but the bottom leaves still sloop but the top half are nice and normal looking.what do u guys think about the nutes im feeding it. but over all its alot better thanks for ur imput.
