Howdy, I'm a first time grower and I have two Royal Dutch Cheese feminized and one Train Wreck. I germinated 4 RDcheese about three weeks ago but only one survived after one week. I planted the rest then and they were doing pretty well until this morning when they appeared bit wilted and one of them showing yellow spots....:cuss:I transplanted them from mini rockcubes to the big rockcubes 4 days ago and started giving them vitalink nutes at 1/4 strengh.
I'm using a NFT system gro-tank 250GTI, ph is about 6.5, got a 250w HPS and a phillips tornado CFL 20w. Got them in a 18/6 light rota and the temperature is 25C-28C with the lights on and falls to about 15C without light. Can't manage to raise humidity more than 30-35% but I bought a fogger mister today.
My babies need your help!
Thanks

The first pic looks like nute burn, and the other picture looks as if the plant is in shock.

May take a few days to recover.

I think you should change your nutes to a widely known company such as Fox Farms and follow the manufacturers feeding chart.

Good luck. ;-)

The one on the left seems nute burned, it looks too small to be taking nutrients and the one on the right looks fine. The first set of round leaves naturally yellow and die off. After these leaves start to die off its a good time to start giving light nutes. If you want to feed your plants anything while they're small seedlings try a seed and clone nute mix and or canna rhyzotonic for better root development. I would rinse the one on the left and just give it distilled PH balanced water for a few days.

Just a quick thought, ive never done hydro before and i take it thats what your doing? i have read that hydro likes a lower ph than 6.5, thought it was closer to 5.5, im sure some1 will correct me if that info is wrong and also please confirm this with more experienced growers before commiting to it, would feel bad if i killed ur babies in a round about way lol! good luck with them hope they turn into some sexy ladies!!
peace:joint:
