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…Leaves. Color - Yellow

Why is one of her first leaves turning yellow? 😱 sud I be concerned ? She’s 15 days old. Other than that I think she’s nice colour not feeding with nutrients yet. Had a bit problem to keep temperatures down (30-31 ‘c with co2)during hot weather but now it’s under control. ThanksLeaves. Color - Yellow

Yellow new foliageFrom my research it could be phosphorus toxicity, iron deficiency or sulfur deficiency.
Or it could be over watering.
Or it could be poor drainage.
Or it could be light deficiency (I have a 42watt Tled with some led strips until Mars 600 arrives)Leaves. Color - Yellow

Fading? Time to start flushing?There’s a few plants starting to show some yellowing in the bigger fan leaves, I haven’t started flushing yet and am wondering if now is the time to start? I’m almost at the end of week 6 of flower, strains unknown. Also pretty sure that’s light stress/burn so I moved her away.Leaves. Color - Yellow
