Leafs clawing down after transplant

MY OWN DANK

Okay thank you mate I watered them earlier and they seem to have got worse so I’m thinking it was the other way round haha, and cool how could I fix this I never really packed it in just threw it in, should I try sticking some holes through the soil to help the water run off?
What is the soil?...I usually cut mine with perlite to thin it out but this isn't a requirement...if its thicker you just have to watch it n may take longer to dry out is all...no I wouldn't poke holes you may damage roots...just after you've watered throughly wait a few days before you water again...you'll be able to see the leaves go from slumped over to perking up...btw the ones in the background of the plant you put in focus looked pretty good n on point with perky leaves

It’s called canna terra professional, okay thanks mate and yeah I was thinking that the others are fine just that one in the middle
 
This depends. If the medium is very dry you will see runoff almost right away. Typically we shoot for 10% run off.
Okay cheers bro, I think it was already moist cause I’ve watered it and the leafs have got worse so going to give it a bit to dry out and hope it bounces back

hey everyone I’ve transplanted these and gave them some water for the soil to settle and leaves have started clawing down could anyone help me out, I’ve been giving them Dutch pro multi total every 2 weeks 1ml/L of water, and they are around 4 weeks old under a 360w led and ph’d to 7 anyone know what’s causing this? This started 2 days ago and hasn’t really changed since
I wouldn’t call that clawing. Looks thirsty. Sticking your finger in soil and feeling moisture means nothing. Maybe you didn’t wAter it enough. Sure it’ll be moist to touch but how deep did you water? Looks thirsty

Can you guys think of anything else it seems to be getting worse I’m not sure what’s wrong with her, seem to be getting marks on leafs
I wish I could be able to pick those pots up to feel the weight for myself. That leaf crinkle I see sometimes in soil with good amount of fert that hasn’t “cooked” long enough. Might not be that but I’m thinking you’re high on the n but it’s cool. I wouldn’t worry about it. The plants look healthy for the most part. Green leaves, green leaf petioles and light leaf veins which is very good. Not seeing much purple in stalk. I’d guess a moisture issue still. Can’t tell you specifics. Really does look like a plant on the drier side that’s in soil with high N. Could be wrong. How big are pots and how much water goes in? Do you measure or can you estimate?

Yeah I was sort of thinking that it could be nitrogen, The pots are around 10/12 litres I would say, and probably about 600/700ml per plant

Do you think that one will turn around the rest are looking quite good compared to that one, couple leafs burnt at bottom on most of them though, and should I just take the burnt leafs on the bottom off?

Theres a drop of water on that leaf up front with spots...and that is why.

Transplanting is a process of merging two containers together. Your plants are large enough to fully water and have a wet dry cycle. They look plenty good and are fine. Water confidently and correctly. Slowly, fully water entire pot to whatever amount of runoff you want. Pause between cups of water so the whole medium is moist/wet.
