You hurt that plant....

Here is what I would do.to help it recover...
Take a quarter cup kelp meal and throw it in a bucket.
Boil water and mix a tsp molasses into a cup of the boiled water.
Add a gallon of water to your bucket as well as the cup of molasses water.
Stir it, then put some of that in a spray bottle to spray down the plant, and pour the rest through the roots little by little until it just starts to come out the bottom.

Then find a place where it can get a bit of mild sunlight for a day or two.

On it. Thanks for the advice man. Is the boiling just making the kelp more soluble?

Good to see you too man.

I've been doing some google about phosphorus for you. I'll upload the links.

If you truly believe it's not the soap. Then I do think phosphorus is the problem.
What's causing your lockout though. I can't be sure.
I'd check your soil ph first thing.
Had symptoms already started before transferring? (before 10 days ago)
Or started after transplanting?
Watering often?

I had just a couple rough looking leaf edges before transplant, but they were small and i wasnt trippin about it. After transplant it just went downhill. I have a soil ph test kit but it doesnt work for shit. How should i check the soil ph?

Also i read online that the soap can burn the shit out of plants if they are experiencing drought conditions, which they were. I let the soil dry out hard to help combat the gnats. Btw everyone, black gold brand compost and ewc are full of gnats. Also temps keep getting up to 84 while im at work. Im sure that isnt helping so i switched the lights to 16-8 with the off time being in the hottest part of the day. They were on 18-6 off during hot hours but they were still getting too hot during the last 2 hrs. Im gonna flower em in like a week if i can get em to bounce back so the 2 hour loss in veg isnt a big deal you think?

Hey dude.
You make a slurry sample. And test with powder.
But it does sound like your fresh pot of soil is the culprit.
I'm not really sure of the best course of action really TBH.
I'd try to scrape off that top dressing.
I'd be tempted then, to transplant or maybe a flush.
Sorry OG I don't want to say which one. But if it were me.
I'd probably scoop them out carefully then transplant into something softer, and give them a big drink of plain water.

:peace:

I'm leaning towards scrape the top dressing off, giving them a big drink, and possibly using a softer light until they recover.
But this is a tough one OG. Because you don't know for sure what you have.
Sorry I'm a little stumped TBH

First thing I thought was soap burn too.
Then once you updated, it looked like phosphorus to me. So I searched it out.
It could be either, or both.
I really don't think it's lack of nutrition either..........
Something is toxic for your plants.

Best of luck dude.
Keep updating.

:peace:

Yea man i looled it up and a few of thr pics of phosphorus def look pretty similar. So do some pics of soap burn and also pics of heat stress. So maybe I've got a combo going on. Im gonna take a little of everyones advice. When i get off work ill scrape as much of the topdressing out as possible, boil up some kelp for a foliar, flush out the soil and put em under a less intense light. They dont look any worse today then they did yesterday so theres that. Ill update as shit happens. Thanks guys
