Hey, I help my friend out with his new grow at his place. Today he saw the cotyledons were drooping on one of his plants and turning light green so he said it was because of the clear container he planted it in so he transplanted it into a 1 gal black bucket with holes in the bottom. He say he had a hard time doing it and was rough on the little plant and might have caused a lot of stress.

I told him that The cotyledons are supposed to fall off sorta like how baby teeth come in and so basically he transplanted it for nothing.

What I'm wondering is if the small plant gonna die now and if there is a way of saving her?

Here's a picture.

The plant is in FFOF with a little MG to top it off. It's buried about 6 inches up to it's true leaves. It's under a 150watt hps.

...the true laves should not be falling off, maybe the little cotyledons(round ones) but not the true leaves
he didnt transplant for nothing, clear pots are bad, light damages root systems, so he transplanted for a reason
the plant was probably drooping abit because of watering problems, and that MG will probly be too strong for the sprout
DO NOT GIVE IT ANT NUTES
and if it shows sign of nute burn, ull know its coz of the MG
and no it looks aight, it snot gunna die

ditto. ffof is a hot soil. cause me loads of problems. the mg on top of it is overkill. it will not need nutes for weeks.

too early for even the cotelydons to be falln off already, you burnt em up. the ocean forest should be fine, but why on earth did you put mg on it??? should get em outta tat shit quick n use a lil peroxide in your waterings for a lil while... bout a tablespoon per gallon
