Ok that is noted also. No feed until the plant is big enough to fill the pot. Is it possible my plants have a root rot? Or am I over thinking it?

A good amount of perlite will be fine, and will stop the soil holding the water for too long.I didn’t mix sand smh but I did mix perlite #2 cause #3 looked too big. And didn’t think about the stick to see if it’s dry that make so much sense.

When you water the plants, some stuff builds up in the root mass and attacks the roots(but its a very low amount)Ok that is noted also. No feed until the plant is big enough to fill the pot. Is it possible my plants have a root rot? Or am I over thinking it?
As the soil drys out it kills it off, and the cycle goes on, the quicker the root mass drys out the better.
so if you over water the plant a few times in a row it can start to damage the roots (root rot early stage)
let the roots dry out and its gone, not bone dry, you looking about 80% dry(before the top leaves drop)
