So I started my first grow which I wanted to do outside, the 1st photo is of an AK 48 which i ordered from Nirvana, and the other two are some bagseeds. But they all seem to doing all right. The small one I plan on transplanting next week, right now she is in a 5gallon pot.
Here are the photos enjoy :)

They look great. For a first timer looks like you will have a nice harvest. Isnt great knowing you will have your own stash in a couple of months. Great job.

Nice plants!

You'll probably want to put them in bigger pots in a couple weeks. This will give you more yield and insurance against them getting root bound.

There's a good transplanting tutorial on page 38 of my grow thread, linked in the siggy.

in those photos they were 7 weeks old, ye I will be transplanting one soon, and the other I already have. I think I may have torn a root, but it seems to be making a recovery.

This week has not been going so smoothly, there was a nasty storm which actually broke the sativa looking one in half, but i think i may have been able to mend it, no signs of death yet.

The AK48 is acting weird, it is getting a lot of yellow leaves, which i know is a Nitrogen deficiency but i have been constantly fertilizing it. I have been giving it always lower dosage than the box says because I do not want a nutrient burn, but yesterday I decided to give it the full dosage, so hopefully that will help.
Here are some pictures, any help would be nice!

and can someone tell me how to get my photos the right way up. some are and sum arent pretty annoyin.
 
its july.idk where ur at but in midwest usa it is hot and relativley dry and i also have plants about the same age in five gallon pots (too small for a 4.5 foot plant). so my point is that they drink alot and im guessing its not overwatering but instead the lower leaves are diring cuz the older roots are getting choked out theyd probably benefit from a transplant soon if you can figure out a way t o do it

how long would it take to recover from overwatering? Because there are still yellow leaves forming i think, could another possibility be that the roots arent getting enough oxygen?

if the problem keeps happening it could be p.h.....generally id say it usually takes a good 3 days sometimes more to recover from overwatering. i recently fixed my ph lockout but ive still gott some yellowing also i think its just the plants way of boucin back.
