If you see pinpoint size little white things wash them all off ASAP! If they have wings you're ok. If they look like little eggs, uhoh. Danger!

Try to keep the upper few inches of the soil dry most of the time. Moist soil is their niche. Fly paper works pretty well too.

24 hrs after transplant.....i know they will look worse before better, plants are drooping, one's stem is bending over like its top heavy...i just put a toothpick in the soil so it can rest on it and sit up straight........they are both still green thank god but i am worried about one because it shows signs of bruising all over the leaves.........I am just hoping this is all stress related, but deep down i feel this one is not gonna make it.........I WILL BE POSTING PICS WITHIN THE HOUR!!!

i forgot to mention the one that looks worse also had some white powder on the top of it, I hope that is just from the perlite.........if not what else could cause that? is it salts?

i also did a soil test with the new soil, i will add these to my pictures as well......im still getting a high K reading, P is about medium, and N is low..........this high K is worrying me because ive read that it can lockout alot of the secondary nutes and cause P to be high....idk this is my new obsession....i cant seem to stop analyzing shit

i can also be reading the mosserlee soil test kit for potassium wrong, when i test other nutes it tells me to let it sit and wait then read, i was doing that for all 3. Now i just read it and it did not say anything about letting it sit, it says shake then read...hopefully ive been doing it wrong cause when i shake and read without letting it settle its medium....

CAN ANYONE SAY OCD?!!!!
