I'm moderately worried. I'm aware the reason this is happening because of the PH in the soil.
what should I do?
I've concidered re-planting them with a diffirent soil with NO ferts.
I made the noob mistake of putting them in miracle grow potting soil + fert.
I can provide pics if needed, however I dont think it would truly matter.
the bottom set of runner leaves has begun to go the color of atomic yellow.
Should I go ahead, and re-plant them in regular soil, or would that be too much stress.
could I flush them? or would that just make the situation WORSE?
please help, i've gotten pretty attatched to these dumb plants.:(

Flush them with ph 6.0 water... 1 liter of water for every 20 liters of soil

may be cut back on the ferts aswell. miricle grow soil has alot of chemicals in it. After she drys and is dry off and on every couple days for a week or two i would flush that soil out hard core.

miricle grow is a big no no in my opinion wen it comes to growin...its will do more harm than good, transplant to different soil and just use other nutes..... the yellowing of ur leaves could be over watering or too much nutes..

if you transplant.. which you should, you should mix in 20-40% perlite... all newbs should use perlite....
Perlite makes it easier to flush your plants...... and it is much more difficult to over water when using perlite...

LOL! It's so true.
I heard one of those languages was actually used to communicate back in the days of Atlantis.

Thanks for the help guys.
I ditched the miricale grow..and now will only use that on myother house plants. (I am full of plants, from the marijane to spider plants O.o!)
I called a family member whos failr knowlegable in plants, and they helped me.
They are all trans-planted and happy now. they are actually "perkier" too! I also started to add some epsom salt to thier water.
..I have to go pick up more gallon waters, I'm almost all out :)
but once again.. THANKYOU!
