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.

With the help of @B4RNS, I diagnosed that I overfed my plants in the previous weeks.😥 So at the moment I am not adding any nutrients, only water. My plants leaves are touching each other and have reached an average height of about 17cm (7 inch). I am planning on starting flowering by next week, is that ok? Initially I planned to do a sea-of-green-style-grow with 3x3 plants on 1 sqm, but 10 seeds germinated and I am having a hard time to get rid of that small number 10 plan (labeled X on my photos). Should I remove that small plant, so that the other 9 plants can have more space? Also I ordered an EC/TDS meter and can't wait for it to arrive.

OK, my first grow is done. I have yielded about 350g of which 50g did not turn out well. Too bad I threw away the package with the exact name of the strains and can't remember anymore. 😓 I learned a lot and hope I can do better next time.

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 ;)
the end.
