First time grower. Nute deficiency? Or light?

Here's an article on room temps & leaf problems. I know you're on a budget, but if you're using a low wattage light, you'll def need to get more or you're wasting your time. Especially with two plants. They look really good after the transplant btw!! Have you fed them anything yet? What nutes do you have for them?

Hope it helps!

 

Any pictures of the light itself mate? Without proper lighting you may as well give up now

 

Hi we'll try to lower your ph to around 6.3-6.5 pick up a bottle of ph down if u don't have one. Always good to have for issues. Also u should be feeding them nutrients clones come from mature mother plants that have been using up nutrients so the clones are an offspring that also need veg nutes. just don't start feeding at full strength try quarter strength at 1st n work your way up.

 

What?

Are you saying that plant nutritional needs are passed down?

Why would it matter if its a mother plant or a father plant or a flower or a shrub?

All plants require nutrition.

Clones will require nutrition just as a seedling would - but only depending on the nutritive quality of the soil or other medium. It has nothing to do with whether its a clone or not.

OP - your plant looks fine but you’ll never get anywhere with insufficient lighting.

And you’ll be fine at a pH of 6.8 - very slightly acidic is fine unless you start growing hydroponically but again - you might as well put your plant jn a well prepared hole somewhere outdoors because its a waste of time until you invest in a horticultural grade lighting system.

 

What medium is it?

Clones need nutes yes n his soil looks bone dry. Clones take on the same genetics is what I'm trying to say if the mother was being fed its basic knowledge the babies should be fed. Seedlings don't need to be fed if that's what your saying unless u want to fry them. Everyone's got there own opinions about shit out here but clones that size if he hadn't fed em yet that would be the issue to me. Fuck I've had plants living under 65 CFL watts till I got bigger lights.

 

“Clones need nutes yes n his soil looks bone dry.“

What does moisture have to do with nutrients?

“Clones take on the same genetics is what I'm trying to say if the mother was being fed its basic knowledge the babies should be fed”

But what on earth would it matter what the mother was being fed? The mother has zero to do with its clones nutritional needs.

“Everyone's got there own opinions about shit out here but clones that size if he hadn't fed em yet that would be the issue to me”

OP never stated what his medium was, what he was growing in. THIS is what would dictate whether he needed to “feed” his plants. I dont feed anything - ever, or check or adjust pH, or flush, or any of that crap. I garden in soil that doesn’t require this stuff.

Just saying.

looks normal to me new growth tends to be lighter especially up against that older dark growth of indica, appreciate you taking pics before watering. a lot of people wait until right after a watering then the plants drooping. makes it more difficult to tell if the drooping is from the deficiency or watering. you did well and clones look well.

 

id suggest to keep it healthy you should add more perlite when or if you transplant. and get another light bulb or 2. rule of thumb you average a half gram to gram per wattage so as of right now im guessing its a 25watt bulb youll get a couple quarters max probably less. whole lotta work for a quarter bag. id assume that's why your older fan leaves are drooping a tad bit not enough light is making it down to them mine start acting this way when I need to thin out my plant canopy.

 

Been repping ur veggie site to a few friends!!

No if your using bulbs like that u will need more I dunno about led but google it or grow with CFL bulbs the spiral ones they work. You probably have some around your house.

 

Even my seedlings I won't put them under anything lower than 65 CFL watts so 11 watts sounds kinda low for plants that size.

 

Hey man, I'd say it's your lighting..I had a similar problem with lime green new growth vegging under bunch of crap Chinese LED panels...i thought for sure it was a nute/PH issue (totally stumped) and someone explained to me that with inadequate light causes the parts of the plant furthest away from the source to produce more chlorophyll to become a darker color, which helps it catch more light and the parts closest looked lime green ....whether he was right or wrong, idk..but 3 days under 600watt CMH had the color completely uniform, but in your case it may be too soon to tell...hope this helps..
