White widow or russian problem

Just some of my thoughts before someone more knowledge gets in.

You need at least 40% perlite in that soil.

It looks too wet which is a common problem with my garden. If you pick it up and it's heavy don't water again till you pick it up and it's light.

And I typically don't use any nutrients until the plant is about a month old. The watering too much is a big problem along with soil that doesn't drain well.

 

Indeed 40% perlite is ideal here

but 30% is a better number

over watering as above steals the air from the soil and yes plants need as much air as water

perlite does that plus reduces any chance of root compaction too

look to the soil and the plant will grow itself

IMO: replace the soil with a quality soil, as then you save of the plant food

good luck

ps feed 1x time per week, when watering lift pot first THINK: then water if needed
