Temp average is 75-78, humidity average 45-50%. I am very comfortable with that. Besides I am way past this thread see Grow Journal....Plants are doing fine. They are being watered when needed, fed when needed and light adjusted as needed based off of suggestions and common sense. I almost understand my lighting now....lol

that wasn't really advice for you, it was kind of pointing out that the guy giving you all the bad advice got ONE thing right....

as to your original question about yellowing, they look like they're growing pretty good. coty leaves are supposed to supply all the nutes a seedling needs till they fall off, but its been my experience that if you provide them with a good enough environment, they can use more than they can get from those leaves. i'd just give them a light dose of grow nutes.

if this is one of your 1 st grows the best 5 things you can do to assure you have a good harvest are #1,feed as little as possible,as long as you have a good soil mix only feed once a month in veg,feed once during transition to bud,then feed low ppm bloom nutes of 200 ppm or less every 2 weeks during bud cycle.

The #2 step to assure a good harvest is to keep your light riding the plant canopy within an inch,as long as the glass is cool to the touch allow the plants to grow up into the light until all plants have an even canopy,then keep lights no further than 1 inch away.

#3 Humidity,keep it at 30% or less at all times.

#4 Heat,temps at the canopy & in the room should be below 80 degrees at all times .

#5 air flow,having clean fresh air blowing thru the entire plants is paramount for healthy strong mold free buds.

The way to get very good at growing weed very fast is to do the bare minimum the 1st grow,especially with feeding nutes ,watering & nutrient laden soils,on your 2nd grow if you kept the 1st ultra simple you'll know exactly what a healthy plant looks like,on your 2nd grow you up the nutrients 100 ppm every feeding & build from there,follow that routine to the letter & resist the urge to do more,by your 3rd grow you'll be a master grower & have avoided all the newb mistakes of burnt overfed plants & over watered moldy plants .

After careful consideration and looking at other posts of yours; it is clear your post was not intended to be helpful, it was done with the intent of laughing at a newer grower burning his shit up. There are allot of helpful folks on this site but there are also a handful that should not be allowed on here. It is nice to know however; there are enough decent helpful folks on here to call bullshit on bullshit! Have fun, I know I will growing healthy plants and trying to help others instead of jacking with them.

wtf are you talking about ?

show me a single issue I advised that isn't good grow advice !

while your at it explain how advising a new grower to keep his grow as simple as possible & graduly increase nutrients with each grow is bad,or how advising to keep good air flow thru the canopy is making fun of a new grower.

I've been here 10 years giving out good grow advice & this is the 1st BS response I've ever had,explain yourself !

you could also quote these "past posts" of mine where I've given bad grow advice or made fun of a new grower,your feelings are way too touchy because every bit of advice I offered that guy is spot on good advice .

This is my first grow for cannabis , but I didn't go into it totally clueless.

I am using a KindLED 750W, 1" from tops would burn my plants to the ground.
I have viewed a ton of Grow Journals, a ton of reading, allot of googling, and have asked allot of question of allot of growers. No where has it been stated or printed to my knowledge not to let your plants get above 30% humidity. through the growing period. 40-60% seems to be the consensus.
I haven't seen or heard any other grower to include professional growers specify feeding your plants only once per month and twice per month in flowering.....However; I have heard several state it is not necessary to feed nuts during the first few weeks under normal circumstances. Virtually everything I have read and seen was clear...Feed when they need it. Most feed reduced nuts once or twice per week or as needed and increase feeding going into veg. Some feed sparingly during seedling depending on circumstances.
From everything I have read and been told ideal indoor grow temp would be roughly 78 degrees in most cases.
For PPM. again I research this quite a bit because it concerned me along with EC. There is a wide range of opinions on this. PPM over 200 in most cases is fine and not detrimental to plants.

I never said you gave bad advice to others. I said I read some of your other posts.

Now if you didn't post just to be funny I stand corrected and apologies, however; if I would have followed what I read my plants would have been dead in no time. And if you were being serious I thank you for your input.

your plants would be dead in no time from cutting nutes down,having great air flow thru the canopy & keeping your cool to the touch light as close as possible ?

Dude you need help & good luck with that,if you think my advice would have killed your plants just remember the advice I gave you & see how similar every good growers advice sounds.

I give detailed explanations instead of quick one liners that say " lower the light " and you get offended,again good luck,your the 1st in a decade to dislike my detailed advice,I'll put you on ignore so you won't have my plant killing advice again .

best of luck .

The light issue I have already learned the hard way. I put a young plant in the tent. The KindLED was roughly 4 feet above the plant at 100%. In less than 12 hours it fried my plant literally.

Only reason why on the Big Bloom is because FF recommends using it as early as seedling stage. I planted in FF Light Warrior and it also recommended using it as early as seedling. I am not using their recommendation of 6 tsp per gallon; about every 2nd to 3rd watering I use 2 tsp per gallon. Should I expect problems doing that?

Keeping lights an inch away. Obviously you don't have much experience with real lights.
You told him to only feed once during veg, not slowly increase, and the humidity. That has got to be the dumbest humidity advice I've seen. And I saw someone put paper towels in their grow room to "absorb the extra humidity"

Then how in the fuck are you putting it an inch away :wall:. I've used everything from a 150w to a 1000w and never had them only an inch away. And anybody can buy equipment, doesn't mean you're using it right. Have you ever used an LED? Kinda weird to give advice on it if you only have HPS

if your light is cool ,as I posted to the guy,a cool light can ride directly on the canopy,all 24 of my 600 HP's covering 8 flood tables have some plant material touching the glass at all time with zero burn as all properly cooled lights can be ran .

as to your " use lights properly " stupidity do you want to discuss " PAR " and lumen loss vs distance & see who's right ? I've been doing this non stop for 3 decades & if your lights aren't cool to the touch then your doing it wrong & losing valuable penetration .

you should get off your high horse & reread exactly what I told that guy,then you might want to look up my decade of hydroponics grow advice from my panhead account & see 5-6 lbs a week being chopped & we can discuss what your not doing properly .
