Pottasiam Issues?

Hello Members, I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction with my most recent grow. Plants are in week 4 and transferred into 10 gallon fabrics 5 days ago. At the time of transplant I noticed one of the girls had a slight twist on a few lower fans and since then all plants are showing some form of leaf necrosis. At first I suspected broad mites because I could see no sign of spiders. However I took a leaf sample under my microscope at 100x and could see no sign of pests. Environmentals are in the zone for age...68%RH, vapour pressure differential= .062 with 24c lights on/ 20c lights off. LED cobs are currently set at 18" and delivering approximately 400 ppfd.

So that directs me to my soil which is a slight modification to the Coots mix which I cooked for 3 months. I then do 70/ 30 mix with Fox Farm Ocean which I layer in the lower portion of my containers...top half is the Coots which is the same soil from my 1 gallon starts. I have used this mix for my past 2 grows very successfully in conjunction with a MBP top dress regime watered in with aloe, fulvic avid and silica. During these transfers I watered in with such minus the MBP. I have applied no other amendments.

Reading through my journals I came across a pic in the Rev TLO pg. 235 that references at Potassium issue that looks very similar? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.20191011_174410.jpg20191011_174359.jpg20191011_191050.jpg20191011_190213.jpg20191011_174410.jpg20191011_174359.jpg20191011_191050.jpg20191011_190213.jpg

Yeah your right my friend. I dont usually reach out to the forums anymore unless I'm stumped. As usual I initially do very little other than lots of observation and reading. In my case it appears as a bit of transfer shock and vegetative has now returned to normal.

There was a time when I expected to find answers in the forum, but to be honest, nobody is going to be able to answer your question. If you are tired of guessing https://www.amazon.com/Soil-Savvy-Understand-Fertilizer-Recommendation/dp/B079GMTHFD/ref=sr_1_2?keywords=soil+savvy&qid=1570993190&sr=8-2&th=1&psc=1

It's very hard to read plants and it kills me when someone says "listen to your plants" and I'm like "I don't know that they are saying"... There just came a point to where I felt like getting advice on here was the equivalent of walking down a dark alley. There came a time when I was done guessing and tired of bad advice. Another one that I absolutly cannot stand is when someone says "You don't need to have a soil test done, they are inaccurate" because I read that all of the leading experts suggest getting your soil tested. I would rather take advice from Dr. Steve Solomon, Dr. Faust, Dr. Lowenfels, or even Tad Hussey over the guy on the forum saying that they are inaccurate.
