Hello,
Been a longtime lurker & reader of this forum and I have mixed up a batch of LC1 using recipe #1. I have some Great White Shark seedlings about 1 month old in the LC1 mix with no nutrients and I was wondering how long should I wait before it's safe enough to transplant into the final soil mix?
Thanks,

As far as the soil mix being ready, if you used bone meal in it you'll have to wait about two weeks after wetting it before the bone gets broken down enough to be available.
If you're talking about your seedlings, plants from seed don't need any nutes until they're two to four weeks old. Clones only need to be rooted.

seedlings pictured are 11 days old. First two are of serious seeds feminized AK-47 and second two dutch passion strawberry cough fem.
My Strawberry cough seedling is pretty much exactly the same size as yours and a few days younger.
None of my seedlings are as yellow as yours though, particularly that first one.
From what I understand there's no need for any nutrients for the first couple of weeks as the seed contains all the food it needs to get started.
it looks burnt over fertilized to me?? could be to much or not mixed enough blood and or bone meal? im not so sure about the peat? what it your PH/PPM coming out of your mix?
WTF does this mean? 'Fermented' soil? Does he mean 'hot' soil that the microbes are metabolically active? Does this statement have any validity? lol.Maybe the soil sitting (wet?) for a month turned it into "beer"?

I don't know if this should be posted in the infirmary, but hopefully it is appropriate here.
I used a combination of Peat Moss and Sunshine #4 because I had some of both left over (2.5 parts perlite - but small grain; it's all I could find).
I used the bone, blood, kelp meal recipe. I added the dolormite lime (powdered) and greensand according to directions.
Instead of Liquid Karma, I used Synergy by Bio-Genesis (also because I already have it). It looks like about the same stuff but double concentration. I used half as much as the Liquid Karma dose (which is the same amount as what Synergy recommends on the bottle for "preplanting").
My biomass was loosely covered in a rubbermaid tub; about half the space used by air. It was stirred everyday for 3 weeks.
This is the EWCs I used:
Here's the problem:
This is a C1 Kandy Kush/Skunk that rooted and was planted on 5/17 (I just took 9 cuttings two days ago) - I would say a week ago I noticed the following leaves. Only two leaves on the plant, and and almost the oldest leaves. The plant is growing great.
This is starting to happen on my younger plants, but more severely. This is a white widow (the bucket says I planted this lady on 1/29, but it was probably 5/29). It doesn't look like it's grown in a week, and the problem is marching up the plant.
Ok, so my ideas as possible culprits are:
Aeration - Not enough perlite or wrong kind.
Acidic burn - from too much peat or dolomite not neutralizing because of a secondary reason
Biomass not aerobic enough to break down everything correctly
EWCs maybe sterilized killing the stuff I want in my biomass. I called aurora innovations to ask if they sterilized their stuff; the secretary didn't know and noone has called be back.
I tried to use the plant solver guide without success, but maybe I should entertain K+ deficiency.
I would appreciate any ideas of the cause and suggestions to cure.
Thanks,

Here are the pictures of my two seedlings as promised. I haven't grown from seed in a long long time so maybe I'm over nurturing them. They just aren't as green as I expected them to be and the edges of the leaves look faded green...I'll try looking at them under different lights maybe its just the lighting ?

EWC tea EVERY watering! Bet they look better in a couple of days.
