Afternoon all ✌ Can some say if this is lack of N?? She was transplanted 24hr ago from a root filled 1lt airpot into a 20lt airpot.. An I should say she is part of 9 others that got transplanted at the same time!

Strain- Dinafem critical 2.0
Canna coco
Canna coco a&b
Rhizotonic
Canazyme
PH 5.8-9
EC 0.6-8
Ppm around 700
Feed to 20% run off

Sorry if there's already a post like this I have searched most of the morning an N deficiency has more brown/yellow tones to the leaf!!

Any help appreciated!! ✌✌

A few things I noticed so far, correct me if i'm not seeing things right. It looks like you have no perlite in your pot. I don't like to run 100% coco because it can clump up and cause poor drainage. It's typical in coco growing to use a 80/20 or 70/30 coco to perlite mix. I would also be swinging your ph from 5.8 to 6.4 because if you stay at 5.8 and not gradually float up and down, you will lock out nutrients that don't intake as well at 5.8. It also doesn't show whether or not you are using cal mag. You will have to use a little more calmag than normal. I start @ 5ml per gallon and work up to 10ml per gallon during flower. It does look like your plant needs some more nitrogen so as you go to water begin to swing the ph. What does your feeding schedule look like? Feeding everyday? every other day?

She is having problems regulating her moisture in the larger pot. Let it dry out for awhile. Next time you might want to add perlite for good drainage.

Thanks all for your replies. Just to add I do feed them cal/mag, I find they drink loads of it!! I'll feed during the day then before lights out i will ph water with cal/mag an canna rhizotonic!! The 1ltr airpot was not full, I miss informed you it had a very good root base all round so I didn't think it was much harm to transfer to a 20ltr airpot!! Do you think 1.5ltrs a day split into 2 feed times is too much for the size plant in size of pot?? I've used perlite mix before, a biobizz mix but I found it held water to much for my liking, canna coco straight I find light a fluffy an I notice drainage is quicker than with a mix!! But I will definitely do a 80/20 mix an try it out!!! Mentioned above by a member was to allow 20ltr pot to dry out for a bit do to moisture control within plants.. I thought rule one with coco is never let it dry out because it causes pockets were roots can't grow an correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't it release more P when it's left to dry out?

Instead of watering every day.. You need to give them enough so you can water every other day.. twice a day never gives the roots a chance to dry out and could lead to root rot. Use the weight of the pot to determine when to water.. if it's heavy, don't water.. when it's lite, water! Hope this makes sense!!

Ok I'll hold back on the watering too every few days! I used to do the old school way of lifting pots for weight but once I learned coco is better kept wet I've always tried to keep it wet! An tbh roots is where I struggle in any part of a grow! Can't seem to get those masses of roots others seem to get so easy!! I'm I trying to hard???

Yes, like most new growers.. You need to let them grow..Not make them grow.. patience is the key!!
