Slow-Growing Plants with Pale Leaves Turning Yellow - Need Advice!
losgrowershermanosstarted grow question 6 months ago
Hey friends, I need your help. My two plants, over a month old, are only 5 cm tall, with very pale green leaves. The temperature has been normal for three weeks, but the lower leaves are turning yellow. Any ideas? Check my profile for photos!

Hey mate, yeah they don’t look good at all, sadly, the truth is you should toss them and start over, you’ll have one pure joint per plant in about 3-4 months from now, maybe more since they’re stunted. So yeah, prepare some new seeds and start over and keep an eye on overwatering and maybe buy a better soil 🙏🏻

You seem to be feeding with a flowering formula type of fertilizer, which is incorrect for seedlings.
You need to buy some cannabis specific liquid fertilizers designed with the "grow" phase formula.
These contain more nitrogen and will make your plant green again.
Generic garden fertilizers designed for ornamental plants are not suitable for good results with cannabis.

The light might be too close or intense. That will yellow leaves. They may also want to eat. If they are not getting a appropriate npk ration of 3-1-2 in vegging they will yellow as they starve.

I have been battling ph drop for a week. Lowered Ppm to 900 from 1100. Seems to have stabilized the ph and now the leaves are doing this.

What do you think the problem could be?There’s something going on with some of these plants and I can’t seem to identify the problem so far. I have been doing a lot of research and I’m in a process of elimination at the moment but the plants growth hasn’t been affected. I will continue to try treat the problem.Week 5

Help: potential over fertilisation or over waterningI used Biobizz bio grow, 2ml/L and sprayed them more than usual. The tip of the leaves is getting yellow. 2 plants have the leaves pointing down and seem more textured and tick. The other 2 (the biggest) seem better, but the yellowing of the leaves is more evident.
