Hi all...My plant is over 3 weeks old now and growing well finally. I transplanted it yesterday to a bigger pot and used fert for the first time to try and help the move go smooth. I added 1 tablespoon of fish elumins to a gallon of water, its 5-1-1. I gave it a generous amount. I have a moisture meter and it is at about 3/4 at various depths and locations. Today the larger and older leaves are darker green and drooping or curling a bit downwards. But no tip burn or yellowing, just dark green and curling down. Any ideas?
thanks a bunch. i can post a pic if needed.

could be a ph problem, or sometimes to much nitrogin can darken the leaves and cause them to curl.

yeah thanks, I prob hit it w/ too much for first time. unless just overwater

[slipnslide087]

overwater would be yellow

possibly nitrogen deficiency, but curling up confuses me.

how hot is it?

[CrystalBaller]

yeah...well mostly just turning dark green. its curling down at the ends of the dark green ones. new growth seems great though today. but it was always fine untill I added the fert, wich was the same day I transplanted it.

The simple act of transplanting a young plant will sometimes cause it to temporarily droop, if it is because of being disturbed it should pick up over the next few days.

if u gave it to much nitro the new growth would start to twist. like psycho said it can be from transplanting it. wait a couple days to see what happens if nothing changes try flushing it cause it can possibly be to much nitro but i think its cause u transplanted it

It is definatley not to much nitro. 5-1-1 isn't all that strong. And she only added 1tbsp to a gallon which isn't all that much. I always use 2 tbsp per gallon.
