NorthernChemist May 30: Transplanted outdoors in rural Alberta. Rototilled garden plot. Had decent amount of rain the past week and soil is moist. Thouroughly watered in seedlings and covered with plastic houses as the nights can get close to frost. Forecast for coming week is hot weather.

NorthernChemist June 6: Clearly not a good week for this one. Leaves looking necrotic. Unsure of cause but this is the only plant showing this issue. Watered it in and covered it back up. Will see how it goes.

NorthernChemist June 12: We had about an inch of rain this week. Kept the plants covered with a small plastic cover given still mild weather but removed the covers going forward. Not looking good but it still has some green. It may come back....?

Well it's super f*cked up that no one has said anything so far when it's very obviously overwatering + poor draining/quality soil. You see she was doing great until you put her out in that mud. Never had a chance poor babies. So basically young plants in their first few weeks can't handle a lot of water especially in such dense muddy soil. Their roots system is just too small to be absorbing so much water so they just sit and stew in it until root rot occurs. Which prevents the plant from taking in any nutrients and slowly "drowns" them. Overwatering is apparent when the leaves start turning yellow, fold upward and start getting crispy on the edges. I definitely would NOT recommend trying to grow in that soil even with moderate waterings. It looks very muddy/sandy and while cannabis is a weed it will survive most the time in soil like that it will be fighting the whole time and you will need to be supplementing nutrients in frequently. If you wanna grow in that same area again though you could make your own soil blend and grow in whatever Gallon sized pot you want. Fabric pots are cheap and ideal.

@Fallingthroughstars, thanks for your input. Adjacent plants with the exact same treatment are thriving. The soil is very fertile prarie land that drains extremely well so although appears 'muddy, this is just after watering and I don't belive overwatering is the cause of mortality. I believe the mini greenhouses may have caused too high of humidity early on and likely some botrytis got the better of a fragile seedling. Very happy with @Fast_Buds genetics overall. Sometimes you win sometimes you lose. Happy growing.

Ouch. I use those covers too but I mostly use them overnight and try take them off during the day. It will likely rebound. With the infrared light we get here things can heat up quickly in the sun.
