help with a poorly plant

I have an issue with one of my plants showing signs of distress. the all have been watered with RO water pH'd to 6.3 - 6.8. I use compost teas and sprouted seed to nourish my microbes. As can seen the other two plants are progressing. I transplanted 5 days ago and used some Great White mycorrhiza.

rReally suffering 2 days now. Some kinda deficiency

Could you provide any ideas to remedy this issue. The strain is Barney's Farm "MIMMOSA EVO".

You said you use r.o. water? Do you add cal-mag? Water in its pure form like r.o. is actually a corrosive, and will strip calcium from your soil. Thats why its good to add.

I use the RO water to get rid of the chlorine and other minerals to protect my soil microbes. if you look at the original post my two other ladies are flourishing but the poorly plant didn't make it, she wilted and passed on. They all got equal treatment, same super soil, same amendments, same sprouted teas. So Im still confused.

On the other two plants I noticed a couple brown yellow spots mine have those same spots on a couple leafs do you know what causes that is it lack of calcium bc i is RO water and was wondering if I don’t add enough calcium thank you

Hmm interesting. They are yellowing as if they have nitrogen deficiency and drooping over as if they are overwatered. I know cameras can be tricky, but it looks like the yellowing started before transplant?

That yellowing is exaggerated by the camera's tint. She was looking good and growing well.. really gutted she popped down

Hmmm i would wait and stop feeding wait for couple of days until they really need it. You might to check the runoff ppm. It could be nitrogen defiency because the bottom lower leaves are turning yellow.

I'll try a foliar feed if possible and give the roots a chance to catch themselves. Unsure if it's pH issue but I'll check runoff next watering.

Have you provide any nutrient? I believe soil only lasts up to certain amount of weeks. If you haven't at anything and these soil or from week 1 that could be your problem

This is a super soil mix which I made and cooked for 8 weeks.. I only add water with the occasional compost teas and seed sprouted teas.... I don't think it's pH as my other girls are very happy and they all get watered from the same res.... I did a check and no bugs. Between my heavy watering I just keep the top soil moist. ... Really not sure what to do next...
