can anyone diagnose problem?

hi guys

Im wondering if I need to introduce proper plant food instead of water..the plats are 2 weeks old today (have some rapid grow on stand by) I have found a couple of bugs which i have attacked with bug spray... or is it maybe just still too hot? ph is sitting at 7 and temp varies been 20 and 30...

sorry the pics are not great.. dodgy cam... but leaves are starting to curl slightly and turn a different shade of green on one plant... Thank ya

the cam is not dodgy , u need to go 20-30 cms further so to let the lens focus so to let us see if the bugs did anything bad to ur babies , ph7 is high tho so u should do domething about it

Its alittle hard to tell exactly what the problem is because of the blurriness, but it was be a ph problem: I like to have mine between 6.0 at lowest to 6.6 at the highest. Also it could be fert. burn. How much nutes. are you giving it and how often? When my plants are this small the only thing I water them with is Olivia's Cloning Solution and I give them that until they reach about 6"' tall or 4weeks old, after that I give them 1/3 strength veg. nutes and work the dosage up from that as they get older until they reach full strength. Spraying bug spray on your plants while there in full light and not washing it off the following day can burn/damage your leaves that can look a little like fert/ph problems. Hope this helps
 
thanks tbh i am just using water just now every other day, im worried about introducing fert too early? if i introduce it now would that bring the ph down?

What kind of soil are you using?

It looks like it is very dense from the pics.

I would transplant them into a lighter soil.

If you dont want to give them Nutes. too soon then id get some olivia's cloning solution thats what i give mine for the first 2-3 weeks. It feeds them a very light dose of nutes and it also has the ferts. necessary to make them root and it does make them root. Then once they get around 6" or around 4 weeks old starting giving them a 1/4 strength dose of veg nutes (which will only drop you ph slightly, ive found that only full strength doses really drop the ph level and its usually to a ph level that you want 6-6.8)
 
That makes sense... still wondering if it is a feeding prob... and not humidity or temp prob? not as simple as it seems this growing :)
