hello everyone how are you? I have a 4x4 tent with 3 plants in them 1 tiger milk and 2 cookie wreck. i have a 600 watt dimmable ballast and a 600 wat mh bulb inside it right now. the setting of the ballast currently is at 400 lumens. the temps in the room are a constant 70 to 85 degrees with the humidity being between 40 and 60. i made the mistake of putting the baby plants in pots to big for them and i also made the mistake of adding 1 nutrient shower to early. since then i have flushed them and they are fine. but the tigers milk is starting to yellow and i dont know why....im doing a hydroponic setup and im on my 2nd week. i have added no nutes since the watering before the previous one. i will also add pictures. I think its a nitrogen deficiency because the leaves are yellow and the new leaves are curling. Thanks for the help.

Hi! In the beginning you need to give more nitrogen for plants. I agree with you about deficiency and probably it can be nitrogen but I may be wrong.

I wouldn't say the pots are to big, gives them room to grow and no transplant later. Yes I think they need a light feed.
Need to stay away from that 97° high temp, way too hot. I keep mine around 80°. Humidity a bit low on the meter at the moment, babies love humidity.

Stressed roots from flushing that huge pot! I start seedlings in 1-2 gallon pots. I water one time(saturate but dont flush) untill about 10-15 days. If they show drooping, give them a teaspoon of water.
