So i recently transplanted from happy from 1 gallon, to 3 gallon in coco mix. I did not release the soil from the roots before I did the transplant, and I check the PH levels and they are in between 5.8 and 6.0.

I feel as if the water is being trapped in the pot, but I also feel as if I am doing something else wrong. Please help me.

coco doesn't get overwatered...if anything you should water the shit out of them after a transplant..i mean really soak them even twice a day. Why aren't you watering your plants?
Also, when asking for help you're gonna need to be A LOT more specific and clear

I re watered 1 plant that was showing signs of overwatering yesterday, and it is still showing signs of overwatering.


When I transplanted, the plants were first in soil. Then I moved it to 3 gallons, and filled it with coco.

Would the soil contain too much water for too long?
Would pictures even help this situation, or should i keep watering this 1 plant and see what happens? doesnt look like much is changing after a 72 hour period from second water.

Did you transplant the plant with the roots BUSTING out of the soil? The roots may not of made it out of the soil mass yet. You cant over water coco, UNLESS you just transplanted.

Anyone who says you can't overwater in coco is wrong lol . You can overwater in any type of substrate. When transplanting you should give them one good watering with super thrive and then let them dry out .DO NOT WATER TWICE A DAY FOR MORE THEM ONE DAY . You will ruin your plants

Honestly you should be watering everyday after 1 week of transplant.
Just water it everyday man. If you dont you WILL run into PH issues.

Coco cannot be overwatered once roots are established, because over watering is not a issue with plants. The lack of oxygen is what makes the plant sad.

I've grown in pretty much just coco and perlite before it's not that big of a deal. Just water it a few times before u put your plants in. You will be fine

If you water your plants twice a day like you suggest, that's overwatering bro.

You guys are on another level saying you can over water coco.... You cant... I have tried lol.
I have a friend KILLING it in 5 gals feeding 800 ppm 6 times a day...
I myself have had great results feeding multiple times a day. Even in 70 gal coco beds......
Your doing it wrong if your not at least watering once a day. Just saying.
