She's crispy alright.... I think she might be self cannibalizing.
Buildasoil on YouTube has some videos about amending soil or building your own. He has a brand, and I use it, but he's also openly stated he wants to educate people on what makes a good soil so they can do it themselves with the resources they have available.

I've tried everything I could think could be the problem, But no luck. So it's got to be the soil.
My first grow grew beautifully on some potting mix I used, But unfortunately they quit making it.
I've been trying different soils and potting mixes from my local hardware stores.
But I'm trying Coco Coir next with grow dots.
I have the Grow Dots and Coco Coir already.

At some point, it would be worth looking into coots soil recipe. This is the basis of many killer soil blends, and its very simple. https://clackamascoots.com/blogs/news/coots-soil-recipe-coots-nutes
Coir is a fascinating substrate, I just started using the stuff for my last round of propagation. I like it, but I have alot to learn.

I'm trying to stay away from peat moss. I don't like it.
I'll substitute the peat moss with Coco Coir.
