Hey all,

I'm led to believe this is either nute burn or light burn or some kind of burn?

Am I correct?

first 2 weeks of it's life was under shit light (sun (a lot of overcast))

Im using 90W of CFL

The plant sprouted on the 7th june so is 24days old

The plant's soil is made up of roughly this:

10% (12.5 : 5 : 25) Water Soluble Nutrients

30% Perlite

and 60% (Miracle Grow Root Boosting Compost Potting Mix)

these are all estimates

I don't see any nute burn mate but what I do see is a plant that needs much better lighting. For some reason the Miracle grow is working out for ya, never worked for me and I don't like it but to each his own right? Anyway ya need better lighting, your plant is stretched and the node spacing is bad. At 24 days old the plant should be 4 times that size.

Well the plant looks fine mate other than that be careful with that miracle grow as it will probably give you nute burn. And bring the lights closer to the plant if ya can, I'm talking about a 3 inches from the plant.

I used to use MG as a soil enricher when using coco, and pro mix type mediums on/w new clones.

use the normal dose; I know I could be using better nuet$$$, but cost wise starting XXX number of pots and not having to feed them for month+ is worth it.

since the greentrees, I only use a pinch every now and then, if there is a case and rather then spend days working on the cause add tsp (25 gallon barrel) the normal nuets work out the problem by the time I have to remix. its just a time saver, really.

plant looks fine, but MG will not take you that far, set up the veg feeding program for next pot change. lots of stuff in MG you don't need in veg, but a lot a new plant does.

yes, but other stuff you don't need. MG has never been a good clone/seed to end feed.

if you followed the directions you should be fine, but she gonna grow out of that pot quick. and you should have a feed plan organic or bottle ready for veg.

Bummer... Definitely looks like she needs more light though. Add more bulbs, or get stronger bulbs, and bring them down closer. Other than the stretching she doesn't look bad to me.

Not absolutely, but I did try MG for my first grow and ended up with spots and dead leaves.

MG set aside, what else could it be, I have another plant iwth no nutrients in the soil etc if that gets the same thing that this plant is getting I will know then that its the MG, but what else could it be?
