Last night I went to feed my plants because they were drooping I saw all the leaves were green, but this morning when I went to check on them some leaves are turning yellow and they are also getting black spots on them. I re potted them into some fox farm ocean forest and I took a couple of pics and was hoping someone could give me some guidance.
thanks alot!!

oh. i tested the ph of the soil and it was at 6.6ish (aquarium test kit)

Those pots look tiny.

I thought I may be imagining it, but you can scale from the texture of the soil.

If they are still in those pots I'd say they're rootbound.

Can we get a shot of the complete plant and pot, with a coke can or cigarette pack for scale d'you think?

the spotting is PH issues & its locked out potassium & nitrogen

Rabiez is right but since you transplanted already your good to go on that front, however Im concerned about the PH spotting, Im going to assume you did a standard transplant and the old rootball and soil was merley moved to the larger pot with new soil added......

next time you water....water slowly in the center to saturate the rootball, then to rule out PH related issues complete a soil runoff PH test.......
with PH corrected water (6.5-6.8PH ) pour enough water in the pots so the water runs out the bottom of the pot ...test the PH of this water....

I know there is a GW Bush recession goin on but get some 5 gallon buckets they are easy to get free

GG knows his shit, lol funny response as I was thinking the same. Looks like they stepped up in the world with a cubic inch of room in the pot.
