    ok that very low. you want make the plant hungry that high ec is just making it not wana get feeding.

    this the plan,

    Rhizo 2ml to litre, check EC after that, then add in A/B to you hit about 0.5. PH 5.8 - this providing the background EC is 0.1

    give it good soaking mate lets flush the whole pot with the new mix feed. i would rather see the plants growing and going a bit lighter colour then you know it feeding and getting hungry which means you can bump up the EC / feed

    no need spray leaves yet, but you will need spray them with calmag at some soon stage. mix 2-4ml in litre spray bottle . this is because your water very soft bit like mine
    whats your temps and RH like?
    what light timing are you on?

    1.2 is going to be too high with a 0.1 background (IMHO!)

    I think the roots are fine, it got major shock when I transported it, the Peat pellet fell apart and the entire seedling was exposed, tap root. It's in 10litres of coco now. I have another one next to this now so if it doesn't turn out great so be it. Also how would I go about checking them? Thanks

    If you need to transplant again in the future, give it a drink with rhizotonic (4ml per litre) and that will help with transplant shock.
