  5. I'm thinkin some kind of H2O deficiency lol. the leaves aren't drooping so it's likely not under watering, but humidity might be low. Also, i wouldn't be surprised if heat stress is contributing.

    What's your humidity and temperature?
     
  6. hey got ur pm lol

    im just trying to think, i had that on couple plants while back, cant think what it was, its not from heat as in the 4 pic i can see its not right at the top of the plant, obviously if it was heat it would be at the top of the plants, but maybe connected to humidity(leaves drying out somewhat)

    can you give bit more info on the grow, soz if u said before,

    but whats seeds are they,strain? bought from a seedbank?
    how old sinse they poped above ground?
    whats soil are you using? have you added anything to it? or added any nutes etc atall?
    are you PH adjusting your water before use? also is there anychance it could be related to the water with it coming from an outdoor 'spring'
    what are the temps in the room?

    the leaves are not dry at all but it got worse over night i moved the light up and have a fan on them all day id its about 72-75 with alot of fresh moving air i used fox farm nutes once about a week ago and then gave them water the night befor all this started i set the ph at about 6.8-7.0 and the water i use comes off the moutain and its drinking water the cars line up to fill jugs of the spring water oh and the plants are 2 weeks from the day the poped out of the dirt and ther purple kush seeds someone please help me
     
  8. what should my humidity be?????
     
  9. No more nutes!

    2 week old seedlings neither need or want nutrients. That's what those little round leaves (cotyledon's) are for, they supply everything necessary.

    Wet
     
  10. did you look at my pics? why are my plants doing that

    I agree with Savage that it might be low RH (humidity). The RH in veg should be 40-70%. If it's constantly lower than 20% it can do what yours are doing. It might be something else though. First, try spraying/misting them down with a water bottle a few times a day, just to moisten the leaves, not the soil, and see if it helps. Second, you should try to get the RH up to about 40%.
     
  12. Well i went out and got a nice little humidifier and opened my fresh air vent a little more and moved the light up to about 24" above the plants and i got the temp to about 77-80 and got the humidity up to about 60-65 and the plants look alot better all the newer growth looks perfect so lets see what happens
     
  13. I will update some more pics in a few days once all the new growth opens up!?!?

    Thanks for all the info and help guys!!!!!
     
  14. Oh and this is a purple kush strain
     
  15. Fixing the problem quickly is good. I hope it goes well and that low RH was the only issue. Good luck and keep us posted man! Peace :smoke:
     
  16. let us know if they start to recover post some pics, you may not see the effected leaves get better, but you should see the new growth growing fine
     

  17. Stop the nutes until they get a bit bigger. Also PH close to 7 can cause issues. If you have a meter and PH up and down, try and get it in the 6.4 - 6.8 range, but pref exactly 6.5.

    IMO its a combo of nutes and PH.
