Happy to be of service.Thanks @kratos015 I will chew over all this. Really appreciate all the feedback.
I was wondering how much LUX you have on them at this point? And what size fabric pots are those? 3G?
Seems like my main mistake was not adding a lot of pertlite. Damn!
I thought normally these soils should be pre-cooked so no need to water/sit for 30 days prior to use... I had better ask before assuming.
Not sure about the LUX. It's a 1000w DE Metal Halide, so only thing better would be a top of the line Cree/COB LED. They're in 5g pots, started them from seed in those pots 3-5 weeks ago.
If you add more perlite to that soil you'll definitely get better results.
Normally these soils are supposed to be pre-cooked, unfortunately many large scale commercial businesses tend to cut corners. Best to err on the side of caution and turn/water it to be sure everything has decomposed sufficiently.
