You should put it in a smaller pot for future reference as it's hard to male sure all water and nutrients gets to and stays with the plant, but congratulations, bro, it just broke ground.

I think your soil's a bit hot, nutrient-wise, and your substrate is a little dry. You didn't add nutes this early, did you? And how often do you water?

Thanks! I heard it takes longer for the seedling/plant take off since its in a bigger pot is this true?

Yes, definitely. The nutes disperse into a larger area so the plant has to root out and look for it, which is ok, but the bigger the pot is, relative to the plant, the slower it will grow in the beginning.

Switch to Nature's Care ASAP. It's what I use. It's the only MG product line acceptable for growing marijuana with surety and ease, if you're looking to grow organic. OMRI-listed and completely natural and organic.

Cheap. 5 bucks for an 8-quart bag. Get the potting mix, and use a smaller pot. Transplamt and shake off as much soil from the root as you can. If you're afraid, just leave as much will fit in your smaller pot.

leave the soil that is around the roots less stress =happy plant all plants suffer a little stress during any transplant but it's gotta be done ,they soon thank you for it,it could be left where it is,the only reason I suggest smaller pots is that you will be using less nutes in a smaller pot,a lot don't feed seedling I all way have,once first set and f leafs have grown and I put em on 1.1 ec.I also like my plants to become really root bound,so that once they are transplanted into there final pots they fly up growth wise,,,,,,tyke
