Hello guys , i have a Sensi Seeds Northern Lights , i sprouted them on a already fertilized soil , maybe too much ;( big mistake , but when she was about 3 3 cm tall she started to show signs of nuteburn and after overwater. When i noticed this i took it out of that pot and washed is roots , and planted it in a Universal Soil , much less fertlized then the other. and watered just a little bit to had so moist to the soil!
My question is , did i do the right thing ? or did i just killed my plant ? :leaf:

you are saying sure to put it into the mini bubbler ? or just let it stay now in the soil and quit watering ? because i'm afraid too many changes in a short period will kill her , that why i'm afraid to put it into the "homemade" bubbler!
i'm sorry i ment 3cm not 33cm .. my mistake

Naww its not even worth it at this point, i would get rid of it and start over with a whole new potting soil and feeding schedule. Plants dont need nutrients for the first 2 weeks from sprout

I'd suggest letting the plant recover in the new soil. These plants are very resilient and the best thing now is to let the plant recover in the new soil. Don't over water, the root system is minimal at this stage, just let the plant chill for a week and re-evaluate. Less is usually more.

Since you already transplanted out of the hot soil...why not just watch it and see how it does? It may recover...just water occasionally.

I had 2 just like those!
Overfed the first week I had them (bought as cuttings).
I lowered the EC of the feed (to 1.0 maximum - 0.8 is better) and gave them TIME,

One seemed to recover in a few days.
The other grew painfully slowly.
Even now, after 50 days, she is 16" high when the others are 21 to 24"
BUT SHE SURVIVED and SHE WILL PROVIDE SOME BUDS....

Good Luck

That's good advice

The only amendment I may suggest is adding a little Rhizotonic (or some other Root Stimulator).

Agreed this is good advise. I'd wait for the recover period to end, then yes a root excelerant is a good choice. less is more when it comes to stressed plants

Let it do its thing, less is more and time will tell. Best of luck, at the price of seeds never give up IMO
