Looks like a ph issue. Check that first before we look at nutrients

New growth
New growth looks light green after transplanting, is this normal? I don't think the soil lacks nutrients, the plants also get enough light.

New Growth is Pale Green Despite Proper Nutrition and PH
Any ideas why newer growth on Slurricane looking pale/light green? Pre-veg soil test didn't show any deficiencies and was ammended properly. PH is in check water in typically 6.4-7.0. Plenty of calcium in soil. Feeding Micronutrients once weekly.

Seedling curving down and turning pale green
The leaves of my two seedlings are curving down and it turns a little bit palw green. I think I overwatered the first days, but now it looks like the substrate is really dry (I didn't watered the last 2 days) but I'll wait a little more. So is it the problem or I miss something ?

Ripple leaves, is it a problem?
This plant has not been growing as fast as I expected, she started with 3 branch nodes, switched to 4 branch nodes, then topped herself, now I have taken all of the bottom sucker branches off. she IS a little soaked, so maybe its over watering? but what do the ripples mean?

Low PH runoff, dealing with deficiency due to low soil PH. Added lime and PH went from 5.4 to 5.0 after watering. How to raise it safely and quickly?
I have been dealing with a nutrient deficiency so added nutrients.It looked ok but then got a bit worse and I took some runoff readings which were 5.4 and then 5.0 the next week after adding lime to raise soil PH. How can I best raise the soil Ph being that I added lime already.

Spotted Leaves – somethings wrong! HELP!
(See previous question as well) The girls are getting worse 😬 Only the bottom leaves seem to be impacted though. Only thing I've done today is water them (three day since last and they were dry). Any suggestion to what might be wrong with them?

Seedling issue
Hey guys my seedling got a little pale between the veins and started to get rusty on edges of leaves. I'm sure its due to unfavourable environment as it did get a little dry and humidity wasn't as high as it should have been. Looking for thoughts on whats up?

My Big Kush leaves appear to be more light green than I expected. My soil is 1:1 perlite potting soil and I only started adding nutes on the fourth week. They appear lighter than the bag seedlings I have running right now which is in pure potting soil. All normal?

Given the pH is 7-7.5, and given the fact that the tops are fading and thinning while the lower parts of the plant remain green, would you also agree that this is early stage iron deficiency?

Leaves are losing color
I planted the cuttings about 10 days ago. They have been growing well since then, but the leaves look unhealthy. The leaves are losing color, since yesterday also at the tips.

Crispy leaves on some lower fan leaves (day after increasing light strength)
What do you think the crispy leaves were caused by? Too much light? Had the light at 200ish watts, (45%) and turned it up to 80% (also raised the light up 4 inches) a day ago.
