Newbe grower question on leaves

I just transplanted my 17 day old plant into a 5 gallon pot. I noticed some of the bottom leaves are turning a little yellow. Will try to upload a pic.

Here is a pic of my plant.

What organic soil?

How many watts?

Are you feeding and if so with what?
Are you PH’ing your water/nutes?
Day/night schedule?

It’s easier if you go down the line and answer everything. It’s there for a reason.

I tried black gold once and no matter what, when I measured the pH of the runoff, it was well below 5. I couldn’t get it to rise so abandoned using it as a result. Others may have had success using it, I just worried that it wasn’t the right match for cannabis.

Assuming the PH meter is reading correctly a slurry test to make sure soil is in correct range then start watering at 6.5 PH. Likely a lockout causing deficiency. More light is going to be necessary soon.

Be cautious when watering as it can damp off the plants if kept too damp. Just allow plenty of time to dry between waterings.

You may need a jeweler’s loupe to see any critters, they can be very small. Look on the back side of the leaves and especially in the crease between the leaf and central stem. They like to hide in there.

One of the first things you may see are tiny dark spots, bug excrement.

First 2 pics that leaf damage appears to be related to the handles on your grow bag but def check for critters as per @merlin44 suggests. :+1::v:

It may help you inspect the leaf. taking the leaf off won’t solve the problem if you have one. The little devils travel all over the place.

@Deepsix……. Well, I think you’re looking at more like a couple months, not weeks.

@RockClarke ok ty

Looking great! I was thinking the same as @RockClarke. It will be while before she’s done and even after that I would wait a month for proper cure. It really makes all the difference. By all means, test some along the way during the cure to notice the difference. I think you will agree that it’s much smoother after a month cure. Keep up the good work.
