hi my friends plant yesterday had 4 yellow random shaped dry marks in random bits on bottom leaf and today it was more plus the over bottom leaf is doing the same but not yeelow yet more light green but dry the leaf around the marks seem to be ok it seems to be moveing fast i have seen a small fly on soil a few days ago but thouth nothink off it lol he has also spilt water on plant when watering and put it under light only useing tap water save to drink it seems to have done fine on it till now the soil is compost with 4 to 6 weeks food he waters them everyday when the soil a inch down is dry and ideas his some pics.

watering everyday isn't a good schedule
if the 4-6 weeks of food is some kind of time release nutes, that's a bad combination with watering everyday, since you fertilize every time you water, which is too much feeding

Thax for the reply it gets dry fast the top inch of soil is dry after 24 hours I was told to water when the top inch was dry I'm doing researching for my mate because he's on holiday and I'm looking after it he said I could have the harvest if I watch his house when would you say water them it would be his first grow so his info just comes from the net.

some soils do dry fast, but not that fast
roots grow towards the water, if the top is dry then roots grow down, which is what you want
i grow in dirt and water once a week, but every setup is different
every 3 days should be plenty, less should be even better

Ok thax sould I flush her also the nut burn leafs are curling up is this just the nut burn or somethink else also when u water do u give it a fair bit and let it drain

 

[growone]

flush is pretty drastic
you could flush, clean out the soil then start measured feeding
reducing the watering might be enough, though it will take a little while to see that

So water every 3 to 5 days then when I water sould I give it lots and let it drain or just so that I get all the soil in pot damp

I'd say it looks great. cut the watering to every other day, it looks perfect for a seedling/ early veg. Did he do any foliar feeding? that can leaves spots like that.
