I'm thinking too much nitrogen. Are you giving them a flush.

 

Id be interested to know your ph of medium. feed. and run off.

 

What water are you using ..tap rain etc..

 

Id give them a flush and let the soil dry out before any more feeds

 

Good luck

Hey Howske thanks for sharing . I think your plants look good mate and perhaps your expecting too much uniformity so early.

 

The thing about smaller pots too is that overall nutrient composition can differ more so than in a larger pot. ie. grabbing 2 diferent handfulls out of a soil mix depending on how well its mixed could see slightly diferent profiles. As you upsize it evens out more... I'd sugest upsizing early for better plant structure as the roots will have found the sides ages ago .

 

 

Theyre always gonna grow better under a HID light and thats the fist place I would start for overall improvement but nah looking good man :thumbsup:

 

Cheers

ok guys a couple more photos and an update on the situation.. i just did a ph test of the soil using the manutec soil test kit which is pretty simple and direct and it was bang on where it should be between 6.5 - 7 pinched some soil from the base and side of the plant that had the most problem with foliage. i did notice some leaf curling under which makes me think maybe overfertilizing and overwatering. im skipping watering today and tommorow i will do a mini flush with water ph around 6.5 - 6.9 allthough when i water (Not Flushing) im not soo serious about being spot on 6.8 and that is because i think in an good organic soil mix. the soil microherd regulates the ph as bacteria and fungi release slime and residues.

 

one other thing which is weird is that the 3 plants with most leaf problem are the largest :wacko: and there are no sight of any bugs in the grow room so im ruling out pest's or ph for now.

ok for the photos i took one of the 3 with leaf problem, i also took a pic of the 4 that dont have any problem apart from slight leaf curling down, a group shot and the ph test
