Aloha!
Recently we re-potted our girls into larger containers. Unfortunately we strayed from our normal medium of OceanForest and Perlite or black cinder. This new medium was all organic and had some compost pre-mixed.
Shortly after transplant, 3/9 of the girls started leaf curling. We immediately bought some more OceanForest and re-potted.
Sine we re-potted we have been blasting them with a double dose of Alaska nute (5-1-1) every 2-3 days. Once a week we mix 2 tblspoons of black strap molassus into a gallon of water and split between the 3 plants.

We use catchment water, which is fairly acidic here in Hawaii. I don't have exact PH numbers yet, but will get those asap (starting and runoff).

We have had this problem before, and the plants always recover but never make up for the lost time in recovery. So the plant is smaller overall, which decreases yield. To get the plants to recover, we set them outside in some filtered light.

I want to avoid this problem going forward, would you be inclined to think that it was the soil transplant issue, ph, or trace mineral deficiency? Our typical nute is the Alaska (5-1-1) for Veg, occassionally we will mix up a gallon or two of some Mexican bat guano and feed the girls.
