Stop all nutes, when the soil is dry, give her a decent watering with atleast 30% run-off. If you are using pure ocean forest it will sustain her with the organic nutrients already in the soil for a month minimum but usually 6 weeks. There is no way she should have any deficiencies right now, its possible she has a lockout or ph issues. How old is she? The yellowing went away after transplanting?

Yellowing started right after transplant.
shes only a week old after transplant! im ifreaking!!!

So flush and just straight PH6.0 water?

I just fallowing what i read to do.

Should i run any kind of flush product threw the soil? Sledge hammer? or anything?

Will it bounce back? if corrected?
Yesterday the whole dam plant was yellow.
today the stems are coming back green.

What i did was 6.3 ph water with 2tbs per gal Grow Big from someones form on another site. IDK if it helped or not but it looking better and its reaching for the light now.

You don't need to feed for the first 3 weeks in ocean forest man. Over-feeding can lock out iron -- excess P especially. Also your soil looks very wet. Let it dry out and stop feeding.......water only for the next 3 weeks or so.

Do i flush with pure water on Sat?
at what PH Range?

Will the yellow leaves turn back to green once the iron has entered the plants system? if so about how long?

I honestly have to get this right. If this one goes bad i have 8 more chances to get this right. This is becoming a obsession for me for some reason.

But i would like to get this right on this run.

ok the feedings on the bottle depends on alot of things like strain, soil type, age ect. A newly sprouted seedling doesnt need nutrients for atleast the first 3-4 weeks and maybe longer if you have a seedling/young veged in big container of ocean forest. Save your nutes untill she gives you the first sign of being hungry. You can feed after she asked for it. Just some things that can cause yellowing on young plants, too much of one of the elements like nitrogen, phosphorus iron or calcium can cause lockouts of one anotheror another element regardless of perfect ph, at this point further feeding will cause more damage especially in ocean forest. I never buy flushing products. I use water. What lights are you using? When she dries, just regular ph'ed if you like ,water untill 30% of what you put in flows out. It will wash salt build up from early nutes. Your plant should bounce back and ask for nutes soon.

Ok watch your tops. Make sure the light doesn't have too much energy transfer at this point because 24" of 750w MH is about 40'000 lumens assuming light is reflected. So keep a watchfull eye on your plant. It is possible to burn them at that age and bulb output. If you notice any type of canoe looking (boat shaped) top leaves then you have to much radiant energy going into your leaves.

On young seedlings, if you catch the yellowing soon enough from being underded then they can usually recover. However once she gets older, any burnt leaves, yellowing ect will not heal because the plant will focus most of its energy on vertical and new growth.

I think she will bouce back. The top is still being developed. Iys not old growth. If you burn them though, may be a point of no return

Don't flush, it's stressful to the plant and it compacts your soil. Also, that pot won't need water for at least 1 to 2 weeks with such a little clone -- so don't do anything to it on Saturday.

That's why you, as a noob (no offense, we've all been there), shouldn't plant clones in such large pots before gaining a little more experience on when and how to water -- it takes a little more finesse than if you were to have planted in say, a 1 gallon.

The top 1/3 of the pot will need to be re-moistened (not really watered) due to air drying (not plant uptake) while the bottom half of the pot will still be fully saturated. You don't need to water fully until the bottom of the pot is light, which might be a week or two or more in some cases.
