i have a few 3 week old plants that i recently transplanted that are showing some problems. I think i over fertilized them.
The mix i used was 1/3 perlite 1/3coir 1/3 of 50/50 castings/cow manure. I believe the manure was too much. If nute burn is my problem here, what can i do to help these poor plants? Flush the soil a few times?

thanks

Your new growth looks just fine. I would actually leave things alone at this point if the new growth is good. But you want to be on the look out for more burns if that happens then something has to give. Your plant will get bigger and utilize more of the nutrients in the dirt anyway. There was probably a bit too much for a seedling size plant but now its big enough

It definitely looks like nute burn, but it also looks like they have settled in to it now, but keep an eye on them. You might also want to read up in the organic soil section, they have a ton of insight on soil mixes. Apparently once you mix a batch of soil, you need to keep it moist and not use it for 3 weeks while it "cooks". The microbes in it help break down the manure and make it so it is not as hot of mix.

thanks for the advice guys. Its been a few days now, some of them are getting worse, some are looking a little better. But I think a few of them might not make it.

Transplant the sick 1nz again and leave out the cow manure. Give them a good flushing and remove any leaf that is less than 1/2 green. And hope they pull through
