Acapulco Gold suddenly yellow leaves, somewhat claw like

Hey guys.
Got one of these little Acapulco Golds here that I recently transplanted into a larger pot. The pot it got transplanted to is approximately 50% FF Ocean Forest and 50% Happy Frog. I think the plant itself is about two weeks old and was growing like a CHAMP before I transplanted it. Is my soil too hot? I am using a tiny amount of FF Big Bloom when watering as well. Thanks in advance for any insight you may have for me.

IMO New growth looks nive and healthy, maybe scared her a little on the transplant. Id just continue as usual and watch. If it takes a decline from there id start seeking solutions but i think for now she is okay. Yet again this is my opinion.

Thank you. She is a very healthy little plant other than the discoloration.

The new stuff sprouting at the top looks great. Wouldn’t worry about the lower old leaves. Plant looks good to me bro.

I wouldnt overly worry it looks like a tiny bit of nute burn but the 1st set of leaves almost always die off eventually( if they arent trimmed off 1st since they re almost always bad light collectors)

I’ve grown alcopoco gold in that same mix. All that is needed is to give some Cal-Mag or in my experience it will have a lot of leaf issues.
Both of those soils have enough nutes for 4 to 6 weeks. I personally give Cal-Mag at 1 teaspoon per gallon of water and then ph it to 6.4 to 6.8 . I do that for 4 weeks every other watering . Then I start big bloom at 1/2 teaspoon a gallon on the watering days I don’t give Cal-Mag. I do that for only 1 week. Then start big bloom and grow big 1/2 teaspoon each mixed together on those days. For two weeks. Then flip to flower and change to big bloom grow big, and tiger bloom 1 teaspoon each mixed together every other watering. Still giving Cal-Mag in-between till 21 day Defoleation. Then it is 1 and a half teaspoons big bloom and 1 and a half teaspoons tiger bloom for 2 waterings. Then 1 teaspoon Cal-Mag the next watering. I continue that cycle to the end.
2 waterings big bloom , tiger bloom 1 watering Cal-Mag 2 waterings big bloom, tiger bloom 1 watering Cal-Mag. So on and so forth.
It seems to work for me but I must admit if i get a leaf that looks bad I just pinch it off and move on with same.

Also I am switching back to just straight happy frog and perlite. 3 parts happy frog 1 part perlite I think my grows looked better then.
I’ve tried happy frog and ocean forest and just staight ocean forest. Then I tried an off brand. Didn’t like them compared to just happy frog.
