Shortcut: To early, to much_, lockout. Long version. Your soil contains enough nutrients for minmum 4 weeks. The plant can handle to grow longer without extra feeding.( 18 l soil) The nutrients adding up. a+b +B52 adding up to 5 percent N and they get a big amout of it( 6ml) and that is only one Nutrient. If you start feeding it better to use inly 25 percent of the amount that the company recommends. I would recommend to you, stop feeding, purew water for 10 days, and then start slowly with a and b and voodo juice. B52 you can add if she is in the stretch. The water,,, maybe a mistake=? in writing? if not pls reduce drastically 200ml should be enough for 2-3 days. The Light distance looks good. your plants should stretch a little to the light( you see it on the space between the nodes. and the leaves should look good and flat ( no cupping). If they start to cupping/ tacoing the light is to near. Happy growing

From wat i see these plants are so underwatered its crazy the reason you had this problem was underwatering in the first place not over watering the sagging u see is they dying of thirst all your leaves are eating up the calmag so fast its killing this plant all those leaves are from a mag deficiency i would give these plants 3 solo cups of water,calmag,asap and cut off those dead leaves

Looks to me like nute burn and they are definitely overwater I would be watering until every 3rd day or with a smaller amount each day and a plain water feed until run off every 3rd day.

How often do you water? at this stage i wouldnt be more than every 4 days, I would also test the EC and ph of the runoff ( bit that comes out the bottom) you might be surprised , EC acceptable range 1.5-2.5 ph acceptable range 5.8 - 6.5 Just looking at them you have over done them.

These ladies are suffering from over watering that's what it looks like as I look through your diary i can see the classic droop signs of over watering accompanied with the little bit of yellowing . I might also suggest dialling back your nutrient solution based on the stats that I see its to strong for the current stage of plant growth . Try giving it to her at half strength and only every 2nd or 3rd watering to prevent nutrient burns and lock outs . In between use PH corrected water to ensure your plant can absorb the remaining nutrients left behind in your medium before adding new ones . I would also suggest raising your pots off the ground and having air flow under them this way it can help dry out the medium abit faster so you dont run risks of mould or root rot . Id say only water them when you stick your finger in the soil and its dry to the first knuckle . The need a dry period for the roots to expand and seek water . I hope this information helps you to understand what is happening to your plants as well as the simple ways to correct it to get back on track rocking and rolling ! -Happy Growing!

Hello @Steve24 ! I don't really see any yellow spots, just some nutrient burns at 1-2 older leaves and yes they are over watered. Although their size is just fine. Happy growing ! 👊

Their size is fine, but a few issues to improve. First, with 5 gallon of soil, you should not feed yet, not for quite some time, let the plant feed on the soil, the spots are most probably a result of feeding too early (and too much). Second, 2 gallon of water a day? really? 2 glasses of water every 4 or 5 days is enough at this point. Give it plain water for now
