My marijuana plants have been growing in veg for about a month but they are slowing losing color, I have a panel led, heater and I've been using terp tea for veg nutrients. Any help would be appreciated.
Help they're dying

How often are you watering them too?

And clear plastic....roots do not do well exposed to light.

They are almost a month old. I would say you have over water from the start for one month they are really stunted. Hope you get things back on track bud and like others said ditch the clear pots.

Hi cb,
I know you're trying to grow organic...but to get them to survive...you may need to go chemical for a little while. Not sure why the plants are so yellow...the terp tea has N in it.
Flora Nova would be good...start at about 1/4 reccomended dose. Get them on wet dry cycle. Up-potting as has been suggested is def a good idea.

I haven't adjusted ph how do I do that? I'm using sink water
You need to purchase a pH meter. Even a cheap one such as this will do.I haven't adjusted ph how do I do that? I'm using sink water

Those plants don't need to be watered everyday. You're keeping them too wet.

Save those plants.
Buy some soil, Black Gold should be local everywhere. Thats decent soil......
buy fabric pots, put black gold in those, 3 gallon or 5's I suggest for those lil girls..........use the clear cup bottom to screw a hole in center of the Black Gold....turn ur clear cups upside down to remove plant...reverse it fast and drop it in that hole u screwed in the Black Gold.
Water far less..........just a cup of water every 2 days for now.......or wait till the first inch of dirt is DRY before u water again......they can recover.

If your watering in coco it comes PH at 6.1. To adjust ph you need PH meter and PHup/down with plants that small I use a 10ml syringe and water every day if you water to runoff then water around every 5 days or until the coco dryes out but not to dry. Good luck.

From the pictures in the OP's original post they are growing in soil not coco.

Agree over watering will kill the plant so gently replant and water by misting the soil before transplant cover more soil and mist that also with tepid water so as to not shock the plant then leave alone till color returns and you C new growth

If you’re going to grow in soil I suggest checking your soil’s pH first. You’re going to need some tools. You’ll need a soil pH meter and I also strongly suggest Acquiring a Hydro pH meter. You should be able to get both for under 20 bucks and while you’re at it get an EC/ppm meter.
If possible try using distilled water. The pH of distilled water is about 5.8 And by the look of your plants it appears to me as a high pH issue, As well as over watering.
Soil pH meters can be a bit finicky. Make sure you Thoroughly mix the soil You plan on using. You will also need to vigorously wipe The long shafts of the probes, being careful to not rub the sensitive tips. Lmao. I am being serious though.
if you find that your soil’s pH is too high you’ll then need some aluminum sulfate in order to drop the soil pH.

Cause you over water'd them. Plants that size should be getting water every 3-4 days.
