I have been growing 2 strains Lsd nd Blz Bud, but my Lsd plant started yellowing for some reason, im not sure if its the heat from my 100w cfl , or nutrient related.. i also noticed that this plant is wierd shaped on leaf is twice as big as the other is, im not sure if its related to the yellowing.

check the ph of the water that drains from the soil. you could be locked up, it looks like nute burn. lower the amount of nutes you use. how far away do you have the light?

You could back the light up to about 3-4 inches away. I'm not sure on your soil selection, I hear it's not good but as I said I'm not sure.

OK I hope I can help you out here.... Its not the light. The plants seem to be stretching for light. Seedlings are extremely sensitive and must develop a healthy root system before they show much leaf and apex growth. from the information ive gathered about that soil you are using, you have burned your plants. i.e. too many nutrients. and/ or too high of a concentration. Other posts on this site describe the same situation using that particular type of soil. you need to gradually add nutrients to that young a plant over the course of a few weeks before you have a higher concentration. Youve gotta get different soil!!!! I use fox farms, but it may be hard to find in some places, and expensive to ship. Roots organics is also good. Dr. Earth is a decent mix available at hardware stores, but needs amending.
Now to save those little plants of yours.... Did you put them directly in the soil or use a jiffy cube or rockwool pot?

Yea i kinda suspected it had something to do with the soils nutrients, but arent the plants gonna get more used to the nutrients as they get bigger? no i put them directly in the soil i was thinking of transplanting them to their final pot, is it 2 EARLY?:?::leaf::?:

as of now it looks that soil is killing your plants so no they wouldnt get used to it. it would be extremely stressful to transplant so young and sick but it could save them. it is too early cuz the roots havent developed a tight ball yet. you could transplant half of the plants into better soil or do them all. its up to you. You should spend the extra buck and get organic soil and planting mix. its worth it. the plants love it and the smoke tastes great.

Im about to buy organic, but do u think it could have been bc of overwatering? bc the miracle grow moisture control apperantly holds 30% more water nd i feed them using shot glasses, the day b4 this started i gave that plant like 2 shotsLOL nd it didnt drain from the bottom, my other plant did nd the other one isnt in any bad shape knock on wood, nd i kept giving them like a shot nd a half for 2 days after that.. does anyone know how plants look when they r overwatered? thnks

These babies need to be kept in a very moist enviroment. Like an incubator for plants...


Don't know where you keep them but it looks like the air is very dry bro.

they wilt when theyre overwatered droopy looking...forget about that moisture control crap. as soon as you get this emergency figured out, you need to check out some of the newbie threads where ALL of the questions you are asking have been discussed already. or pick up a book. Gorge Cervantes indoor horticulture will cost you like $22.
