I recently received 2 plants. 1 of them is lemon kush and the other is purple skunk i think. When i fist got them the purp was only a couple of inches and the other was about 7 or 8 inches. i decided to grow outdoor. Not too long after i got them i transfered the purp into a different pot so i could add more soil but after i did so i noticed small white bugs in the soil so i took it out and put in new soil without any bugs in it. but every since then the purp hasnt really grown at all. on the other had the lemon kush is growing nicely but the leaves on the bottom are starting to die. same with the purp. Is there anything i can do to nurse my plants back to health or is it a lost cause? if anyone can help it would b greatly appreciated. i can post pictures if needed.

first off, just a guess but its prolly lemon skunk and purple kush. When re-potting you may have slightly damaged the root system, its probably just stunted. What kind of soil? and also pics would prolly get you some more answers

They seem pretty young to be treating for bugs. They don't look too bad just give them water only for a week or two and see what happens. Anyway you can idenify the bugs? Or show us a pic?

first off, do some more reading in the beginners section. You should never put multiple plants in the same container. They are really stretched...bury them almost up to the first set of leaves. More light would definitely help, as far as the yellowing, im not 100 but it could be either burn, stress, or deficiency

The small white bugs in the soil, were they all around the roots? If so you better be thinking root aphids and they will wipe you out if you can't control them, BAD JUJU!. If they were just like tiny white worms and scattered throughout the soil they are probably nematodes, usually harmless but some are harmful.

the bugs were small and white. i threw out the soil that had the bugs in it though. and i should put them in different containers?

well i only the plant in the soil with the bugs for a short period. i noticed them and took the plant out immediately. but they were just crawling around troughout the soil.

The pests in the soil could be a problem, but the leaves are another one I think. Do you know the ph of the soil, and the type? How much are you feeding them? These would help in the diagnosis of your issues.

thay still look young keep eye on them as new sprouts come keep eye on bottom leafs as sometimes usually die off could be calcium or mag def as well think all you can do with the yellow leafs is keep eye on them at the min cal and mag def usually happens week 4 to 5 in veg
