Out of my 7 plants, two sprouted faster and steady growth. The others sprouted later, took longer to grow. Of my two best growing plants, all from the same bag (bag seeds) one is a rich green like the other smaller ones, and one is a brighter green. This was noticeable between them even on the two true leaves that first formed.
The brighter green is rather lime colored now. It had started to droop slightly and I could tell her roots were many and starting to collect along the bottom of my round container and that she needed a transplant ASAP. I was able to transplant two days later.
I am now two days post transplant, the new soil has about 30% organic compost I got from a friend that is several years old and well broken down. I watered right after transplant with collected rain water, until I had some run off, didn't compact the soil too much, raised my lighting fixture to minimize the stress, my other plants look better than ever but this bright colored girls bottom leaves are still slightly curled/drooped, new growth looks good, but still brighter green than the other plants. I dropped the lights down again last night, 250w of cfls, and this morning she really doesn't look much better.
What am I looking for as far as knowing the transplant is taking well? When should I see her start to perk up? Is there anything else I should be doing for her? Also temps at 70F and humidity around 71.
Do you think they need more nutes? Or give time for them to take up from the nutes in the compost? I will post a pic of her and the other best growing plant momentarily.
