Candy Kush is sad and limp, help please

[namvet25]

I will try out air pots for sure. Still learning and figuring what works best for me. So many options to try and I’m a curious guy so I’ll end up trying them all.
Waira, thanks for checking in again. Root bound seems to be the thing it could have been and there was no evidence of root rot.
Is it possible that having to much perlite at the bottom of the pot caused an issue? I had put a solid 1” of it in before adding soil mix. I thought it would help drainage? The roots were nice looking but really bound up in it.
As of this afternoon she still looked to be in a bit of shock from the transplant to the smart pot. I’m hoping a little fresh soil and some oxygen will get her of the right track. I’ll get some pictures when/ if it starts to perk up again

Ok,hope she comes back.Try air pots because they cause roots to self prune and they don't get circled around the bottom and not able to draw enough water in

@namvet25 which size airpots do you recommend for auto’s? Is 2 gallon enough or do I need 3 gallon?

When I first using them I started with 3gal but the pots were one solid root mass so now i'm using 5gal pots and the plants get a lot bigger and some guys use bigger sizes than that.Check Amazon and you usually can get a better price than a grow shop.If you do get air pots let me no and i'll show you a few tricks on how to water.

I use 20 liter pots do five plants at a time in Air-Pots.. I picked up some cheaper ones off Amazon as I was in a rush and needed Prime shipping, however they are not as good as my "Original" Air Pots so check out different options and if you can get the originals Air Pots then pick some up, so worth it.

Will take some close up of the newer ones and the ones from the original company who make the better ones tomorrow.

That last one (Fan fell on her) but she seems back on track now (That pick was taken a few days back)

If you look carefully your see the wider pots, they are ones of Amazon and materials not as great, the slimmer ones are same litre but taller and better quality product.

Thanks for the info. I ordered one up to try on my next grow.
I’m starting to think I’ll be replacing the Candy Kush soon actually. It still isn’t looking any better. I gave it a good watering with normal nutes this morning. If it doesn’t start looking better I’m going to give up on her.

Please take a look at her. I think I give up, she might be to far gone. Seems like she just refuses to take in water.
