First Post on RIU. 2-3rd week into flower, growing medium issue.

Hey guyys, i have been reading info off this site for ever and finally i wasnt to lazy n baked i made an account.

So heres my current issue for one of my setups.

i have 5 Greenhouse seeds. Superlemon haze x Bubba Kush.
( my own strain, Crossed superlemon female with hermy bubba kush)
The strain tastes like lemon haze but has more of a bubba look/taste. but the indica from the bubba adds alot more weight at harverst i find.

any way my issue.

i had 5 plants planted at my friends cabin outside. im in vancouver canada and its Aug.30. So plants are deffs flowering.
i brought them inside and they are in 5 -7 gallon buckets.
they are in a 5x5 hydro tent with a 400hps and a 250w MH bare bulb hangling lower on the plants. ( plants are 3feet)

so when we brought the seedlings to my friends cabin we forgot dirt. so we went down to the marsh and got some really fertile bog soil.

problem is,, the medium has no drainage wat so ever. so first watering in the hydro tent. i hit them with budblood. flora nova and a orgainic kelp fert.

thing is i expected it to drain so i put like 5-6 litres in each pot. now for the last 5 days the soil has been soaking wet, grow has almost stopped and 1 plant the leafs are all hanging down and stuff. and the new growth tips. the new leaves are yellow and the growth look spindley and not very lush.

any help guys? thanks !!!!!

What the Bog Soil From the Marsh is not draining? Shocked.. I say.. :) you need better soil.. maybe make some 50/50 with the soil in the woods.. once it looks and fesl good, replant them. OH and stop watering them :)
