Is there time to rebound?

3353BE9A-0C6C-4588-BE2D-1738DCCA393C.jpeg Hello so this is my first grow. I had my plants in the ground for a month and saw little to no growth due to it being too hard and full of clay. I threw them in pots about 2 weeks ago and this is a current pick. They are covered for a few days due to excess of rain. Is there still time for them to rebound a produce at least a decent yield?

Outdoors? Where do you live ? What is average first freeze? They’ big enough to produce.

You can always throw a cover over them and start forcing them early if you have seasonal concerns.

Why do you advise going light on nutes? I ask because I'm in a similar situation. Tia
Virtually every problem you see here outside of bugs seems to be related to nutrients. Cannabis needs nutrients. But if the plant is in the ground it will derive most from the soil it roots in. Even in potting mixes salt accumulation screws with the pH and can cause lockout. In flower it gets worse as everyone wants to throw in Big Bud and other bloom boosters.

I just transplanted mine into bugger pots with fresh soil (just regular container potting soil with an npk something like .05-.01-.01 which seemed almost insignificant in my mind, but the soil looks great, rich but not heavy. I added maybe 15% pearlite which also seems insignificant.

Anyway my question is... Might this new soil be enough nutes not to supplement at all?

Watch the plants. Nitrogen is the most quickly depleted element. If it’s short you’ll see leaves start to fade a bit. Usually on the lowest parts of the plant. See fade? Give a feed.

.05 .01 .01 might seem insignificant but you gotta think about volume, that's gallons of soil vs. Teaspoons of nutrients
