I looked at the roots on them and they are just now barely at the edges and the soil seemed pretty loose still. I figured I could transplant them on their next feed so hopefully the roots will grow some more and tighten up the soil.
Thank you! I had just bumped them to 2.5gr/g one feed and 3 days ago so kinda afraid to jump to 3.5gr/g so I’m gonna start with 3gr/g first if you think that would be ok just to make sure. The new growth is the right color green so not sure if that lower growth got so beat up from just being on the 2gr/g for so long.
That’s good to know! Just got worried cuz I hadn’t seen those kind of spots/ markings yet.I found a typo. Surely you meant “sorry this post isn’t longer”?

I just felt like I was rambling! 
I was/am inclined to agree as I also thought ‘they look hungry - low in energy’ but that didn’t stop me wanting to reach in and turn the leaves over so I could see the underside! Virtual frustration, lol! The urge to turn the leaf is overwhelming. I don’t even have my own pants growing at the moment to go and exorcise it on...
I don’t know if the dunking technique would work for you - but it’s very good for fully hydrating the soil in small pots. (I document it in this post.) When mine are in small pots, every watering/feeding is a full dunk and coming up close to transplant time, that’s nearly everyday.
Hey lady.
I'm caught up for the moment.
I used the dunk method many times at the greenhouse when I'd come across hydrophobic soil. It does work well.

If the new growth is coming in fine, then yes 3g should be fine.
Soil will handle excess nutes better than soiless grows, so there is room to be on the heavy side. The plants look big enough to handle the larger dose silica now too.When you first see the yellowing that's when to increase. If you waited a watering or two before increasing the dose then it will turn on you fast.
IKR! She still should check though. That much spotting, and the lack of food, led me to believe it was a nute issue.

Sorry! Next time I’ll take pics of the undersides! I’ll dig around and see what I can find that will work for a good dunk like your example.Hey lady.

Hey miss lady back atcha! I used the dunk method many times at the greenhouse when I'd come across hydrophobic soil. It does work well.

I’m gonna go ahead and bump them up then since the soil can handle a lil extra! Do I go to 2ml/g now on the silica?Yep! Lesson learned! I haven’t really had issues like this bad in veg before ( minus the AM a few grows ago).. I don’t know what the heck is going on with my brain and growing lately! It’s like I’m backsliding and I thank you for all yer help!
Just stopping in to say Hi, Candy!
Sorry to hear about the nute problems, but Mr.S. will have you squared away in no time!

Yes, but it's actually 3.1mL/gal. (3mL)
Haha, well the AM we won't count. Something whack going on there. Not like your typical grows. You'll be back on track in no time!

Hi back atcha Carcass! Thank you for stopping by and I hope all is well over your way with everyone
I need to go visit some journals! and we are well on my our way!

I drenched most of them today like Amy instructed in her journal (bottom and top) with 3.5gr/g MC 3mls/g Silica and I put a lil bit of Aloe powder in there as well. Hopefully these gals will stay perky here real soon. Once they start to dry again I’m hoping to be able to get them transplanted into the 5G fabrics!

Update!
Back on the 5th when I drenched them I also topped them. On the 8th I transplanted and fed (3.5gr/g MC, 3.1ml/g Silica, 1/2tsp/g aloe) to SSH,APS,GDP, & Pre-BK 98
On the 9th I transplanted & fed the same to WW1,WW2, & AFG.
I decided to keep that “extra” widow as I am going to be taking a short summer break to go to Upstate New York and get some of my sisters sentimentals (she passed away in her sleep in 2018 at age 40) and it will give the electric bill a break.
The gals are looking mucho better since they have been in the bigger homes with their increased feed! I ran out of ticklers and the roads are too bad today to go get any so they are either partially in training or on the wait list.
I hope everyone is well and thank you for stopping by and for the support! I’ll be trying to get caught back up and making my rounds on journals!
here’s some pics for proof of life! They tent pics always make them look a little lighter in color than they actually are.

Nicely done Candy! 
The WW2, was she that dark green before the latest feeding? Compared to WW1, she may need a lighter feed. It could be the lighting so your eyes will have to decide. Something to be aware of though.
The 3.5g should hold them for a while now.
I love all the Sauga views!!

I was getting a lil worried there fer a minute! I think with WW2 it’s the lighting, she looked good to me in the natural light when I swapped her home. I’ll bring her out into the normal light on the next feeding/pic day! Thank you again for helping get them back on track! I sure hope so and they sure are seeming like it! 
I hope you, Mrs C and your mom are feeling alright! - Thread starter

Update!
I don’t know what happened to this week but I’m back! I hope everyone is well and I’ll be swinging by journals here shortly to catch back up
I’ll start in the 2x2.. Afghani doesn’t have any notable deterioration that I can tell easily. WW1 does appear to be slightly worse (as in deficiency climbing to the next set of leaves).. they have had one drench of 3.5gr/g MC 3.1mls/g MC , 1/2 tsp/g Aloe and one regular feed at the same 5 days ago . The top set of leaves are in the good green range so I’m slightly perplexed and wondering if WW1 needs more time, needs more nutes or needs less..The sequence of events tell me needs more but then I question my memory on the sequence.. it’s probably a good thing I’m taking a short break after this as my skills have been lackluster so far this grow
here’s some pics for proof of life and possible suggestions
The 4x4 girls are fairing better and I don’t see any notable further deterioration. They are all on 3.5gr/g MC with 3.1mls/g Silica, 1/2tsp/g aloe. They were last fed 6 days ago and need a feed today!
Then there’s the lonely WW2 in the craft room closet. She is on the same nutes as the rest and her yellowing has definitely stopped but she does appear to be slightly a darker green. Other than the slightly darker shade she appears healthy and on track. (She is under the weaker blurple now so I’m wondering if that maybe made a difference) anywho here’s some pics for proof of life
Sorry for the rambling just feeling out of wack and it’s unfortunately really filtering into my grow..the med increase of the lyrica has really helped the nerve pain but has made me brain feel like slushy mush and having a hard time with decisions and a lot of the time words in general. (It took about an hour minus pics to make this post) They said it’s usually temporary while adjusting but it feels like it’s been a hot minute and no change.. I’m hoping I’ll be back too me soon cuz me no likey.
Thank you for stopping by! I appreciate your company and support

Hi Candy,
I wish there was something that we could do do make you feel better
. It doesn't sound very pleasant to say the least.For the plants, well they all look droopy. How often are they being watered? Have you watered to runoff at all yet? We can try and narrow it down to over or underwatering, then maybe something else. I don't think it's nute related at this point.
