Quickly yellowing leaves, stunted growth for 10 days
kevzzzstarted grow question 5 years ago
Ooph I need help again. My plants are starting to yellow –– quick. They were a bit pale about 12 hours ago, now they're totally yellow.
I haven't watered in 3 days yet the soil is still damp (not wet), but about 30% perlite. Organic potting mix, no nutrients added. Water pH 6.5

Chronic overwatering in thick soil led to these symptoms I'm guessing. It’s very easy to overwater young plants when you have a small seedling in a big container. When that’s the case, don’t soak the whole growing medium. Water in just a circle around the plant until its leaves are up and growing fast. At that point you can start watering more thoroughly. Does your soil have any added nutrients in it? Do you ph your runoff? In water might be good but you need to adjust the in to make the runoff right. Cheers and happy growing!

So –– I think I diagnosed the problem, thanks to you both in the comments. I realized the drainage still was pretty bad. maybe needed more perlite or just better potting mix. Pulled this girl out to assess her roots and see what the soil situation was like. horrible drainage.... All my fault.
Starting a new question with a picture of my root system. hopefully others could learn. from it. check it out if youre curious. Thank you for all the help

Looks like n-def.. feed them .. they are hungrY! :P
ph the diluted fertilzier too... may need a little something on occasion.
in genarl, the cotyledons (2 non-serrated leaves) will start to fade abit and that's a great indicator to start feeding.
becareful.. start slowing, even though yo have a deficiency andsee how she reacts.

One plant (the one on the right) is going yellow, with brown mottling on the leaves. Both plants have been treated exactly the same.
I’m giving the plant some calmag and extra nutrition after flushing it (which had no effect). Any ideas to save this plant? Worried…

Too much light or PH imbalance?I dont know, something strange about the color, the spots on the leaves maybe? suggestions accepted. Maybe I need to add a fan ASAP, or let more air into the tent?
Dimmer is sset to 20% 25% , maybe I should give more light? or maybe less?

Seedling Light-burn or ToxicityHi growers!
Is this Light Burn, or nutrient toxicity from nutrient dense soil?
2 Mars Hydro TS600 lights at 27" from seedling.
PH 6.3 misting soil - RH is 75-80%. - Temp is 77F
No light meter, so I estimate PPFD is in acceptable range despite using 2 lights in 2x2 tent.

Yellow leaf tipsHello,
I think I have a slight over-fertilisation.
Could someone have a look at this. And could someone explain to me in this context whether and how bad it is that the water does not flow through when watering. I have never had water under the pot.

Surplus or deficiency?Can't tell if there's a surplus of nutrients or a shortage of potassium? One plant looks like nitrogen burn and the other two look like theyre maybe a little k deficient. Was thinking of chilling out on the feed on the burnt one and just feeding micro to the other two. Thoughts?
