Diagnosis wanted

Northern Lights clone, about 2 and half months old (not sure though), Soil is store-bought 60% peat, 30% worm castings, 10% vermiculite, 10 liters. Watering with tap water, when soil get's dry. I started fertilizing about a week ago, 4ml bio-bizz grow (8-2-6) per liter of water every other watering.

I have no means of testing pH right now (I'm guessing that's the problem), but I'll get some pH strips as soon as I can.

She's getting too big for her pot, but I don't know if I should transplant (in ground) now or resolve the issue first. When transplanting I'll use some dolomite lime in the mix, will this help stableize ph? She had those weird ass leaves since I got her, but kept growing like mad, so I though it's not that big of a deal. Was I wrong, will she be fine?

Leaves are droopy cause it's cloudy outside.

They look fine to me, get them in the ground ASAP if the weather is good.

Re: Diagnosis wanted

That my friend would be a PH problem. I only read to the 'tap water' part.

Re: Diagnosis wanted

Yeah well the thing is if he's 'guessing' its a PH problem and has no testers I am pretty sure my comment was appropriate.

Re: Diagnosis wanted

Honestly I use purified (bottled) water that sits out overnight...
And are you getting defensive really? I am pretty sure he said he was going to get ph testers.

GET SOME PH TESTERS MAYNE!

And some jugs of water to flush that bad girl with. Whatever the size of the pot, use 3x that much to flush... flushing with ph correct water should HELP cure (not cure totally, just help) any ph problems you have... when you rule that out all you can do is work on the next option.

Re: Diagnosis wanted

OK, here's next on the list:
I transplanted two weeks ago, being in a hurry and short on cash I used the local suck-ass clay soil. So four days after that I went back with 50 liters of good soil, dug out the plant and transplanted again in good soil. No major root damage, if any at all, she's fine at the moment. But here's dumbass mistake number two: the spot I chose seems to get just about 4 hours of direct sunlight a day (in comparison to 10+ hours just a meter away from that spot). Will it be worth it to dig her out once again, now that the roots have grown bigger?

Re: Diagnosis wanted

i'd move her superthrive can also relieve some of the stress that comes with transplants

i buy mine at lowes cuz the grow shops 20 mins away and 4 bucks more
