It defo wasnt underwatered as there was small amounts of Algae earlier on. The topsoil was replaced, and I left it to get dry then re watered. However I now know I have done this too early as it looks heavy from the stem and not wilting from the leaves
No I haven't ph'd and I have realised the drainage is inadequate. Still new to this thanks
Water has been evaporated and soil is organic lightmix. No nutrients have been added aside from biobizz root juice, I know I should have done it earlier but the soil hasn't been drying
I'm not sure what I'm doing with ph tbh. And I'm super paranoid about watering them now in case it's too early again. Although am I right in saying the leaves wouldn't perk up till they dry and are rewatered? Or would I expect to see them perk up before watering again? Thanks again
I'm not able to check right now but will let you know
That sounds dangerous lol, would you say there would be no chance they would just recover on their own?Soil is the only problem I have growing plants. You need oxygen and to clean off the root of dead stuff from over watering. I would look at hydrogen peroxide for a solution till they start taking water and growing again. Plants that are young don't need Ph'ed water as they are not taking in nutes yet and don't get deficiency's . Ph'ed water is for when you add nutes so that they get a full spectrum of nutes. Those plants need air!
Peace
Not in those pots with that soil.
At this point the Ph does not matter AT ALL! Duh, they are suffocating.
. LOL Do not Ph your water and up pot if possible. I have read that HP works as long as you don't have a micro culture that you are going to kill off(which you don't.) Being that I am just passing this info to you you may choose to do what you like.
I'm Not saying that Ph is not important. That would be insane. What's important now is oxygenAt this point the Ph does not matter AT ALL! Duh, they are suffocating.
My plants looked like yours 3 weeks ago so I just put them in hydro and they look like gold. Hydro might not be for you but, it will bring your plants back to life in days not weeks.
Ha look at my avatar... look familiar?
Peace
As I don't have any access to hydro and don't want to mess with chemicals do you reckon potting up to my final airports would help?At this point the Ph does not matter AT ALL! Duh, they are suffocating.

I'm almost tempted to throw them Away and start again in my 16l AirPots from the beginning. They're annoying me to look at lol
I unfortunately have no ph equipment at all at the moment as I think I have underestimated the importance. I also cannot access any funds to get any. But I will defo be potting up tonight then
I've seen much worse recover into beautiful plants. Just repot them in good soil and they will most likely be fine.
