Hey up folks...
So my kerala has been transplanted for a coupla days now and it perked right up within a coupla hours, and continued growing as though nothing had happened...so i guess i kept stress to a minimum..

I have noticed tho, that 2 leaves, one recent growth approx 4 days ago and one new growth have got a yellow edge..only on one side on the larger leaf and the smaller new growth is entirely yellow...please see pics for a better idea..last pic has areas marked out.
All other leaves on the plant are nice and green (please note some may seem to have yellowing on the PIC but its merely the lighting)

SO, what do you guys suggest??
I repotted with the original compost ,so its still in its original potting medium, havent fed any nutes since transplant on sat nite..as i thought i'd leave it a week to be on the safe side..

Nute lock?? does it need some nitrogen?? is it stress???or just a good flushing out??

Go steady n have a good wk. :)
 
Brown leaf edges that are indicative of heat stress.

This damage looks alot like nutrient burn, except it occurs only at the tops of the plants closest to the lamps. There's only one cure for this...get the heat away from the plants, either by moving the lamps or moving the plants.

These symptoms are also seen when the EC concentration of hydroponic solutions or soil solution is too high. These symptoms also appear when strong nutrient solution is splashed onto the leaves under hot HID lamps, causing the leaves to burn under the solution.

Hope that helps.

I don't think it's nute burn. That plant doesn't have a very dark green look to it...it looks like it's lacking N and or mg. I would give it a nice feed with a good N source with some epsom salts predissolved in warm water at a rate of 1 tsp/G. If you don't have epsom...add some molasses at the rate of 1 tbs/G.

Drink!
