First time grow questions

2kbone3 · #1 (**permalink**) 06-16-2008, 12:39 AM

This is a first time grow. Setup includes 10 plants all from premium bagseed. Soil is scotts potting soil from home depot. added perlite to soil.Lighting used is 26w(100)cfl.Plants are almost 2 weeks old. About 4 days ago yellowing started on the leaves of 5 of the plants(see pics). Can't figure out what the problem is. The pH of water was carefully tested so doubt thats the issue. Temp always between 80-85.What could be the issue? Please help!

Looks similar to the problem I had at that age due to lack of nutes.

Due to the spotting and twisting we're seeing on your leaves, I think your soil pH is off - way off. Do a pH run-off test to see where your soil is at.
