Ok I've been on this site asking for help for a few weeks, and being the impatient ass I can be, I offended some people and would like to apologize, I am just not sure what to do with this plant.
I took her out of Scotts Potting Soil w/ MG Perlite in 2 gallon and transplanted (root bound) into 5 gallon container with FF Ocean Forest about 10 days ago. She was 20" at the time. I took her out of the Scotts/ MG soil becuase she started slightly burning and I read so many bad things about it I didn't want her to keep getting worse. However, since I put her in FF Ocean Forest her leaves have been burning like crazy, first it was just the bigger leaves, now even new growth is affected, and leaves all over the plant are showing spots in middle and burnt edges, even the smaller ones. The thing I don't understand, is while the plant's health is declining, she has grown to 32" since. That's 12" since she has been burning.
I have noticed that I have to water her less as the root ball remains moist way after the surroundING soil dries out, and I think this is a big part of the problem. I have not added any nutes yet, and I'm keepin her in direct sunlight for 12-14 hours and under CFL when sun goes down for 4-5 hours, with 6 hours of darkness. Another part of hte problem is that I did not add any perlite or anything to the Ocean Forest soil because she was so root bound I did not want to wait any longer for transplant.
I'm not sure if I should try and add some no nutrient perlite, re-transplant and tease the rootball a little, just wait it out, or what. I wanted to put her into flowering but I was waiting for the transplant shock to get better, but its getting worse so I really have no idea what to do.
LEAVES ALSO FEEL EXTREMELY DRY AND PAPERY.
