Hello, It's been 3 weeks now since I started my grow from seeds. Currently I am hitting my first bump as a couple of leaves are starting to show unhealthy behaviour. I decided to cut off the worst leaves. I hope it is not a fungus. When I moved the plants to my 9liter pots a couple of days a go I looked for rotten roots but could not find any. Everything looked white and healthy.

It’s Calcium deficiency. It can come from many factors. You have to be more accurate with your informations. Do you use any nutrients ? How often do you water your plants ? How many times do you feed them ? What’s the amount of mS/ppm of the feeding solution ?

@El_Chapo, ok, now I can tell you have a Cal deficiency due to an excessive amount of sodium in the soil , as nutrients build up into salt when they don’t get used after a while. Creating evapotranspirations problems. You must know it takes 3 weeks to use the nutrients in soil. You should follow a Feed Water Water Water Feed W W W F ... schedule and check the amount of ppm’s / mS coming out from the drain with each Watering and readjust next Feeding levels if needed. TDS/EC meter is strongly recommended, more than pH meter.

@JUNGLE_B4RNS, Hmm, how often do I feed them? Good question! Until now I tought that watering = feeding. That means that every time I watered my plants there were always nutrients mixed into the water (so far I only used 6.0 PH, destilled water). "I’m suspecting overfeeding as you’re following manufacturers charts..." Now you got me thinking! Because according to the manufacturers chart it says: add this and that nutrient to your irrigation water. And so I did. Maybe I shouldn't add any nutrients next time I water?! "It would be great if you could know how many ppm / mS ." Unfortunately I don't have a TDS nor EC meter. I am using test stripes to test my tap water (6.5 - 7.5 PH last time I tested. And yes, I know, thats not the best way to do it.).

@El_Chapo,ok, this is for the watering. Sounds good. The problem might come from the feeding, how often do you feed them ? It would be great if you could know how many ppm / mS . I’m suspecting overfeeding as you’re following manufacturers charts ...

Good luck with the grow, nice looking seedlings, minus the deficiency already mentioned by @JUNGLE_B4RNS

I'd say they are recovering nicely, good looking plants ;)
