poor drainage ned help?

i am having a a plants that is suffering with poor drainage and was wondering if any thing can be done to bring it back to health?The plant has been moist day for a 3 days know and it seems like it wont be dry for another 3 to 4 days.The plant is a mounth old right now but looks alot young i guess its becuase the growth has been slow becuase of the drainage.For the past week the leaves have been droppy and i think there getting some salt build up to.

transplant into a better soil that drains better!!

well the only thing i can do is transplant it in to the exact same soil and hopefully it will drain better.And should i do this before leaching or after?

Why would you be leaching? umm why would you be transplanting into the same problem? I mean if you have wet feet and you want to fix it.. you dont accopmplish that by putting on wet socks.. right man? So get up and buy some better mix man.. You can make your own.,. just lighten it up with some perlite and vermiculite. its not that difficult. If you know that drainage is a problem then fix it.. very simple concept.. water goes down.. your mix should be light.. your contianer should have holes.. two wrongs dont make a right. so do make the same mistake twice in your garden. Mistakes are your friend.. learn from them.

Didnt you read my message,i am leaching becuase its about that time and they are also having salt build up/nute burn.actually When i first filled the soil i pushed it down and compacted it as much as i could,would that have anything to do with it?Im groing with miracle grow potting soil but in the futrue i think i will change because i think a soil with less nutes in it would be better becuase ive always had bute burn probles.


ps.When would the precise time be to start feedings your plant becuase the nutes that im using have a feeding chart that says feed on the first week.The first feeding will not be a grow solution its a growth enhance and energy booster.the products are bibizz and i have there ntire line.

stop worrying about nutes, you definetly shouldnt have compacted the soil, the roots are probally having a very hard time growing and even using the nutes....... go buy some good pro mix, or soil mix, replant, water just plain water...... you can flower whenever you want, it all depends what your aiming for.

your plant will not get any better without better soil.

Im just gonna start all over and use these errors as a helpfull guide on growing the new ones right.

But thanks for the help.

Agree.. with mobby420.. those potting mixes with the fert added is really a waste of time. Go to your local garden center and ask for a batch of thier Pro mix.. that is the shit they would be using in their greenhouse.. not the stuff they have for sale on the shelf.. then you buy a small bag of perlite and a bag of vermiculite.. and mix it in a tub or something.. making it light. never try to compacte the mix by force let the water do that. Air in the root space is crucial to success.. No reason to try and leech at your stage . just do the transplant as a stand by in all situations like this.. even if it means shaking all the mix off the roots and give them a fresh place to put thier feet. Good luck man..
