New growth looking sad, overwatered?

Could be overwatered, but they also look a little clawed on the tips, maybe excess nitrogen. I like your solo cup salad!

I got a moisture meter just now and it showed low so really confused. Also pulled a leaf for a pic...

Rurumo has you covered, back off the N and be careful not too over water. If you're in soil, let the medium dry out until the pots are nice and light. Do I see oak leaves in your pots? I wouldn't use them because I'd be afraid of degrading organic matter attracting bugs.

Decaying vegetation also great hosts for blights and funguses.

are you using RO water or straight tap water?

If you started it off right, that loving soil shit can retain a lot of water....that is not good for cannabis plants. I am not sure all the insects associated with loving soil are a good call as well....I'm not saying it couldn't work, just that it adds something not really necessary for growing cannabis...

Always ph your water! And let them go dry for sure. Over watering is a huge issue. And as for the leaves, these guys are right. They will hurt you more than help. Also, once they start to break down it will be hard to keep your nutes right. I personally use pro mix soil. And only feed once a week. I use diluted mix 3 gal of original mix added to 15 gal of 6.5 ph water to water through the week. My babies are blowing up... pics or it’s not real!image.jpg

Distilled. I’m really interesting in the living soil philosophy and want to see it through. No nutes, only Recharge as supplement. I have buddies who had amazing success with it

Major recovery today. Gave them a shot of recharge and a good soak yesterday. Any mulch alternatives? I got lucky and no bugs were brought in with it originally but I see y’all’s point. I have to mulch though, key for this type of soil BE5CF43D-532A-4331-BDE3-472A8BB39808.jpeg

I would get as much info from them and make sure you're using the correct water and filtration.
