Looks like the light is a bit too close for 20/4. Try to stay under 20 DLI for your seedlings, then 40 during veg. You should try Photone app to measure light, it works fine !

Relax buddy. They go yellow because they expand. If you got a green rubber and expand it extrem it will turn yellow if it's narrow. She looks good.

Small yellow stains Hello colleagues! Would you kindly help me and tell what these yellow stains may be caused by? I think I could set the ph-level too low, so it may be a deficiency of some nutrients, but the plant seems developing normally.
