Lil green for my liking... any ideas? I’m thinkin light too close but younger plants are doing good so prob not that. Need a transplant is what I’m thinking? 1 litre pot 20 days old I can see roots at bottom. Do I go to 3Litre airport or straight to 16liter fabric pot? Any suggestions welcomed58A131B3-DA31-4F6D-B6C8-A26F94677B80.jpegE3090219-34D3-4B7E-A676-28D79ABB65C4.jpeg

Whats your ph at? What's your feeding schedule? Could be a slight deficiency or lockout.

I'd either leave em a lil longer in the 1L or transplant to the 3L and then the 16L

It looks like my best girl is lighter than others and my 2nd best is 2nd worst as in they gettin root bound.. that’s pure novice talk tho. I raised light 2 inches tho cause very slight upturn of end of tips. Even if light is optimal I think I wanna stretch em a bit. I will bury their lanky legs so it looks neater too. Thanks for input lads

Are you using the biogrow too? I could be wrong but I think those 3 are more soil/plant tonics than nutes? Totally beneficial but I don't think they contain any N-P-K, could just be hungry?

Yea eyeballing em to check how dense the roots are is a good way to go till ya get an eye for it

I am so scared of nute AE08752E-7A98-4B2F-B4D7-8BEBC15E79F6.jpegA164EC1C-EC61-4979-9F81-7EBAD9CF76BE.jpeg burn that I just givin them supplements with no proper feed, hoping the soil does its thing until I see signs they hungry/ google the issue. I had a toke n did the transplant and I dunno maybe could have waited longer?

Yea those roots look nice and healthy. They'll fill out your new pots in no time. What soil ya using? They usually have enough feed for a couple weeks

Great white? Do you mean perlite?
Perlite is good for drainage it’s the white balls I mix 10-15% of my soil with it. Great whistle is a fungi bacteria helper, so sprinkle on ur root ball or in the hole you’ve made for transplant and it helps the growth of plant due to its helping all good things in soil. That’s a retard explanation but supposed to be very good that’s why I got it31509F2A-00DD-4F81-A943-53F6EEE06DEF.jpeg

That's more or less it, its the spores of 25 different beneficial bacteria and fungi. The mycorrhizal fungi is the superstar tho, it has a symbiotic relationship with the plant. The plant can send chemical signals to the fungi that it is in need of something (calcium for example) and the fungi will search for it in the soil, break it down, and transport it to the roots. The plant then feeds the fungi with excess 'sugars' for a job well done. It's actually kinda beautiful
