I have transplanted my 2 week old plants 2 days ago in to new soil & the leaves on 1 of them have started to turn yellow around the edges & are curling up! Whats causing this & what can I do to sort it out? My other plant seems fine so Im abit clueless as to why one of them has gone like that?

Sorry, I have got them under a 250w HPS lamp & a fan running, the compost is all purpose with a PH of just under 7 & was doing a good job until I transplanted, Im not sure of the temp in there I need to get a thermometer in there. I 've not started with the nutes yet because they're only 2 weeks old, I'll get some pics on tomoz so you can have a look at them. Just wanna know if this is normal after transplanting them?

Not normal in my experience. Transplant shock for me has always been just very droopy...and even then only some of the plants. If you only have one plant acting up it could just be shock. The others look ok? Pics will help.

whats the best way to transplant a plant with minimal shock? it says on this one bottle of superthive to soak the roots for 15min. what does that mean like all the dirt with the roots, or rinse the off then soak them? plz help

That must be for hydro? I try to keep as much dirt as possible so as not to hurt any of the roots.

Sounds like it is in shock from transplanting. did you give your plant vit.B before transplanting?You might try somehow shading your plants for a short while until it comes out of shock. good luck to you

Do you think I'd should raise the light a bit? It doesn't seem to be spreading to the other leaves & there is some new leaves sprouting through.

Mine always get full light after about one week from seed. I do vary the lights height though.

With a 250HPS right after transplant with those tender plants, I would be almost 60-65 cms. Lowering steadily over a week down to 30 cms as long as they don't start stressing and wilting, etc.
