And today, one of my bigger leaves is starting to get an unattractive e yellow tint to it. My garden intuition tells me it’s transplnt shock being I felt that awful root tearing (even slightly) that just breaks your heart. Any help is appreciated, I could be worried about nothing. Thanks in advance guys!

Transplant shock they’ll be drooping. They aren’t drooping are you or have you fed them? What sort of soil are you using? Breaking the root ball up is a good thing and you should do when transplanting.

I’m using FFOF with Big bloom every other feeding and epsom salt once a week. The yellow leaves still keep coming. The big bloom has bat and seabird guano but it doesn’t seem to be giving her enough...

There’s nothing to big bloom at all and definitely no nitrogen if your dead set on using fox farms get some tiger bloom.

Thanks man, I’ll see if tiger bloom does the trick. Those yellow turning leaves are heart breaking to look at. I’m not dead set on FF though, I’ll use whatever helps the plants

I’d look into a better nutrient that’s not only good but inexpensive. Megacrop or jacks is what I’d recommend.

Thanks Hooda. I picked up some bat guano, mackerel fertilizer and some other FF fert bottles. We’ll see how she does with that. I really didn’t want to transplant a flowering plant, but I had to keep moving her indoors at night and she was originally in a heavy, HEAVY clay pot. Learning woes...

Be sure not to over do it. Remember a little goes a long way.

Yeah playing that balance of keeping it simple but keeping them fed is always the tricky part. I’ll post a pic in 3-4 days to keep you posted. She doesn’t look too sick yet, we shall see.

They were 40% off because our local garden store is closing so I thought what the hell ;) I’ll keep an eye out for megacrop
I can’t think of a store that would carry them unless your near where they’re located. It would be nice but I just stay stocked up.
