as far as wind it's only a fan i have on low, or the grow cab exhuast for the ones under the HPS. either way, i switched out every single plant in that soil. i took off all soil, to the bare roots, and planted them in better stuff. they look okay, upright and stuff but i'm sure it was tons of stress. this really sucks

crazy man, i've never heard anything like that. it kinda sounds like nute burn, but ST has no NPK value. either way, i use maybe less than a drop per litre actually, more like 2ml per gal. my girls have always seemed to love it

well if its workt b4 for ya bro ya probly na beter than me, but a wud say the superthrive at a seedling stage cud b the stress.
Just so you have a good comparison for what your Autos could/should potentially look like, I germinated one of my Easy Ryder autos on 8/19, same as you, and planted her on 8/20. Below is a pic of her on day 5 (roughly the visual age of your plants even though they're nearing 3 weeks old. Next to that are pics of her from this morning, so you can see the potential for a similar auto after the exact same amount of elapsed time as yours. I'm sur eyou know but Easy Ryder is Lowrider #2/AK-47 btw. I have 4 other Easy Ryders that I started about 5 days later and they're all growing exactly the same give or take.
For reference, I only used FFOF soil and PH balanced water around 6.2-6.5, NO notes, and NO additives whatsoever until about a week ago, when I started adding an enzyme and a silicon product, NO nutes. I planted all of them directly into their final 2-gal. pots from germinated seeds, no rock wool or Dixie cups
Can't say for sure what's going on with your plants, but I think getting them into another media is definitely a step in the right direction. They ALL look VERY sick, and the common denominator is the soil (and the water). Can't reccommend the FFOF highly enough. I know it would take a while to get, and apparently you'd have to pay for shipping, cuz that's more than twice what I paid for mine at a local shop, but the soil rocks and it's worth the money. Btw, I'm no expert but it looks to me like a combination of nutrient burn and over watering, definitely not just a result of over watering though.

true, i definitely appreciate that but i've grown lots of autos and i have learned a lot because i've certainly fucked up a few in the past. i use tap water, and have never had problems, so i feel like it has to be the soil. i'm actually going to try using this shit soil for veggies and see what's up. idk, i just hope they don't die because they are VERY sick
Sorry, didn't know if it was one of your first Auto grows or not. Just assumed it was since the plants were having such a tough time. Hope the new media works out for you, I don't see how it can hurt. Only problem is that you've lost what looks to me like a good 2 weeks off of them, even if they were in ideal conditions today and ready to start thriving. That might be too much to overcome with most Autos, but to be honest I'm not too familiar with the lifespans or flowering times of your strains. Good luck!

yeah, i know. that's what i'm worried about at this point, idk. i guess within the next three days or so i'll see what's up. i'll be able to measure the damage once these little things get going
