Yes, this is a problem, your plants are suffering from lack of nutrition and no doubt starving. Please see my answer that I posted in your other question for more clues to guide you towards healthy and happy plants. After looking at your diary, it seems your light should be adequate, just your feeding is missing the mark, as well as the cups being a dreadfully unsuitable size for proper seedling development. Cheers, Organoman.

Looks like she needs some nutes, she looks hungry, also just make sure you have great air circulation in the tent and that the pot isn't holding too much water...... Can't think of the correct term now lol... But yeah feed the ladies!

On Dwarf 2 the leaves became paler than two days ago. Since the treatment is the same I do not believe it is related to supplements. Or is it normal given that they are heading towards the end of flowering?

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?

The plant that stays in the center is having some problems. Sugar leaves are curling down and have brown-yellow spots, they also seem very dry (see the photos) . Only this plant is having those problems, what could it be?

So my leaves have started turning yellow and falling away. It started one by one in the lower parts of the plants, but then it spread even to some more younger leaves, some of them just turn yellow and fall, some of them started turning brown and burnt, see picture for reference.

Hey guys ! Any idea what type of deficiency it is ? The newer leaves are lime/pale green, spreading to the older leaves. So top to bottom. No spots, no rust. Thanks :) !

The further I move the lights out, they are now at twice the "ideal" placement of 14" at 28" and the yellowing on Maggie and Bra is disappearing to a great extent. Do yall know of any deficiency that makes a plant highly susceptible to light burn?

Hey Pros, All girls are from the same mother and they get the same feedings. I think my light is a little strong. The plants directly under the lights are lighter green than the ones on the outside. 😎 What do you think? Thanks -NorCal311

I have some concerns about coloration of leaves. anyone care to chime in? Do I have an issue going on? I had light about 24" from buckets, I recently raised lights up to 36" as I was concerned this discoloration could be caused by light burn?

Any idea what's going on ? The plants kept growing (slower tho) but droopy leaves and yellowing/pale green. Some have spots, as you can see on pictures. Also some purple/reddish branches/ The constant (temperature/pH/airflow) are undercontrol. Thanks a lot !

Can anyone identify what is happening with the lower shade leaves? A progressive, patchy paleness, from the spine of the leaf outwards and sides of leaves are cupping downwards. I gave cal/mag twice through the week along with bloom nutes. Is this a deficiency, small container..?

In week 4 I planted the plants in a richly fertilized soil mixture. The leaves of the plants are now becoming more yellow. Do the plants suffer from a nutritional deficiency? What should I do? Adding organic fertilizer to the water tank could lead tot clogging of the tubes....
