Hi, Plants are 3 weeks old. They were a bit to near when they were under my 600W LED. Now under leaves are more and more yellow. Led is on 50% power at 40cm of the top. Is N missing ? Last flushing tonight was with 0.76 mS EC. What should I do ?

.7 EC for that plant should not be an issue. My concern is it looks like you have nutrient lockout due to pH imbalance. You should be targeting a pH in soil of roughly 6.2-6.5 for every feed and water. Our plants have a particular pH range where they can uptake nutrient. There is a helpful sheet someone did that shows all the nutrients and their pH absorption range. When the pH goes out of range they cannot up taken up by the plant. I suggest that if you do not already have a pH reader that you get one asap. Then you can flush out every pot you have with a pH adjusted water to correct the pH of the soil. When doing this I like to use roughly 3-4 gallons of water in a 5 gallon pot. Most of the time I take the plant to a mop sink for easy cleanup I hope this helps.
