Hello everybody am new here! Some help would be really appreciated if possible.
OK, Can't get pictures right now but will sort some if the resolution isn't obvious... the plants are three weeks old, and were potted into Miracle Grow Potting Mix - the one that says it'll grow plants for three months. I realise now this isn't ideal as everybody slates it. What can I say, I'm a n00b.
The lower leaves on the plants are all yellow, have a brown splodge or two in the center of the lower leaves and they're slowly dying, seems like its working its way up the plant - the new leaves are green though. The top of the plants, have kind of twisted misfit leaves turning back on themselves. The PH of the soil is about 6.8. I very nearly suspected a deficiency due to the yellow leaves, but am now thinking that there could be too many nutrients in the Miracle Grow Potting Mix.
They were showing signs of yellowing bottom leaves when I repotted them as I thought they may be root bound as the pots were small.
They were being watered once every couple of days, but haven't been watered since the repotting about four days ago.
What can I do? I've already left this for about four days and although the plants seem to be growing at a quick rate, the yellow dying leaves, along with the tops twisting is worrying, although new growth looks OK, just a bit twisted in places. I don't know whether to feed, wait it off or cry.
