Do you think she's too sick to transplant right now into foxfarm soil? She definitely got more yellow the past 2 days

I would say you’re taking a risk doing it now. Start ph water and try to nurse her back to health. Hopefully others can comment on this as well. The fox farms soil has a fixed ph of like 6.5 so that’s a start but you gotta ph the water. Is this your only plant? If it is I would wait till it got healthier.

Well I started them indoors because it's too hot where I live in July so I think they stretched from that. But yeah I feel if I transplant right now she will just stiffen up and turn into a dry twig. Her sister on the right I've done everything the same and her leaves look happy so I'm not sure what's going on.1628965145101.png

I would say the want a bigger container also. The one on the right looking nice. Once they both get transplant and are looking okay I would top them but wait till they have 5-6 nodes or sets of branches

When you transplant move the first set of leaves down to 1 inch above soil surface to help fix that stretch

So do you think I should leave them in the direct light for now or keep in shade until she recovers? I was just about to transplant them both this week until now.

That mix claims to have enough nutrients for 6 months. My guess is they're time release salts rather than organic inputs, but I'm not sure on that.

I agree that this is likely a pH issue and the teas and fish mix you've added likely threw off the cation exchange.

Try just pH'd water for a bit. It should straighten out and in the future, select a better substrate for your plants.
What up girl glad to see you back in action on here !

That is could be a rootzone issue. Take the advice and get those into a better substrate asap. I'd also get them into bigger pots but dont go any bigger than 1gal. They'll need time to develop a decent root mass before moving to their final containers for bloom. Place them under dim light until they snap out of it.
Use any well amended soil and use a good water source.
Just be gentle when transplanting

wa wa waaaaaaa ouch dont do it till you straighten things out that poor thing is already on it's last leg the shock of transplanting no matter how small i wouldn't suggest for you to do.
Yes need to wait on transplant. It’ll make em sicker
