Lower leaves dying in ALL of my babies.

If your going to try again better check that water, you need to know its PPM and PH or better yet use RO or distilled.

I have a feeling the tap water was the culprit here.

Lets hope is that because the soil im using is the only one I could find.... :confused2:

I use Miracle Grow Moisture Control and add Perlite and Earthworm castings and Lime to help the PH.

The only problem with your soil that I could see was that it lacked Perlite, which allowed the soil to get packed down.

It doesn't hurt any to flush the soil after you've transplanted, but the MG nutes will run out after a month or so and you'll have to add your own.

If you have any questions about using MG to grow in, feel free to PM me about it.

I have yet to use anything but Miracle Grow; once you figure out the quirks, it's a great medium to use!

Let your tapwater sit out for a day or two before you use it so the chlorine will evaporate

I started with 12 seed... I now have 8 plants that made it! (at least trough this stage)
