I have a chocoloco from vision that I got as a freebie it is 5 weeks old. Its in mg soil with perlite, 60% soil 40% perlite. I transplanted it a week ago into a 5gal bucket. The plant has 5 nodes, it is 4" tall and about 2" wide. Im using flora series nutes and a drop or 2 of superthrive every 2 weeks. I started adding nutes a 1/4 strength when the cotelyn leaves started turning yellow. Its under a 400watt mh dimmed to 50%. Idk whats wrong with it. I had some cheese seeds also from vision that were doing the same thing but they were in dwc, I thought I was doing something wrong so I switched back to soil but the chocoloco is doing the same thing. They would grow good for about a week and then just dang near stop growing. I really need some help here I dont want to have to pull it. Thanks for any help!

Its still focusing on root growth atm. If it doesnt do anything in 10 days on top, then hit it with some root stimulator and/or bat guano

your plants don't need anything grasshopper, you on the other hand need to grow some patience:bigjoint:
beginning stages of veg are always painfully slow,
As Diabolical666 said the 5 gal buckets are way too big for a plant that size. Careful how much water you give,
You could end up with root rot.:spew:

yeah i let the bucket dang near completely drie out before i water again. The only reason i did transplant was because i either thought i had root rot or it was root bound but it was niether

I transplant 4 times before flower, end up in a 5gl air pot all within 4-6 weeks...strain dependent of course.never be afraid to transplant but do it gradually...
