To much salt in that sand your killing it, well have killed it. Need to do a bit more research before trying again. At this point, I see no saving it.

you know, if you're going to use that mix, I would start the seeds in rockwool cubes to let them get a nice root system before planting them in the mix. The soil mix does look much too moist which can nix a plant before it gets a chance at life. Just a thought. But if you want a soil that is great for ganja and newbs, go with some fox farm ocean forest, or happy frog. This soil is fool proof and herb just goes off in it, I've been using it for years.

since everyone around me says im a grouch today i agree with grumpy. :)
besides, i think its the salt as well and could be too reflective for under the plant?

Let's see if a can guess it it was east west or southern Florida sand. Lol. Based on the texture I am guessing southwest Florida.

i had a plant do that one time, I thought it was sun burnt. I was growing them inside then moved them out (bulldog citral skunk). she's thriving ever since i topped her!

It does look bleached, I left 2 seedlings out for 2 days by accident once. They had the same white leaves as a result :leaf:
