Check the pH in those tubs dude. A myriad of problems like that is normally caused by pH flux.

It looks to me like most of the yellowing is starting from the base (petiole) of the leaf. If my eyes do not deceive me, that is an iron issue.

Is this happening in both tubs? Or just one? If one...which one? The one you have had nutes in the whole time or no?

EDIT: Out of curiosity, what are your temps and humidity averaging now?

I check the PH daily TRY to keep itat 5.5 but im just using my eyes, i have a PH meter on the way, should be here any day now.

It is happening to the bigger ones, three in the 80% nute tub and two in the 40% nute tube.

the temps are always at 78-80 and humidity around 20%.

The yellowing is starting big time mostly from the new starts on the biggest plants.

Aaaaahh. Using one of those liquid pH kits? I almost guarantee that is your problem. Those things completely suck. I had pH issues when using a kit like that, I got a pen and things have been so much smoother. Glad you got a pH pen on the way.

Your humidity is still crazy low. I don't care what some others have told you, they need that moisture in the air to function properly. The plants stomata (little pores on the underside of the leaves) will close if humidity is out of whack. In your case, they are probably trying to hold onto as much moisture as possible. When plants don't transpire (breathe/sweat from the stomata) normal functions (such as nute uptake and usage) slow down. Do you function right if you don't breathe or sweat?

Just something to consider. I'd be trying to raise my humidity a bit. At least to 40%...but that's more like for flowering. 50% would be better (I actually keep my vegging pants from 50% - 60%) RH).

EDIT:

How do the the leaves feel to the touch? Dry? Velvety? Supple? Firm? What?

Sorry for the third degree...the more people know the better they can help.

Hooray for CalMag+! Give them little ones a foliar feed at 1/8th - 1/4 strength about 15 minutes before the lights go out. Will help with the defs from lock out, and raise the RH a little bit...and I mean a little bit and not for long. Try getting some standing buckets of water with a fan blowing over them down in the room man. It's at least something.

ok ty ty ty ty ty for sticking with me and helping, i will do that at 7 in the morn, add the other mix, that is tomorrow.

in 55mins im going to change water try to get the ph as close to 5.5 as i can, use 60% nutes then add that in the morn.

the light goes off at 8 comes on at 2, ill put the water buckets down there right now!

Always gets a little worse before it gets better. Keep that in mind and don't freak if it spreads a lil bit. If it KEEPS spreading then yeah things are still off kilter. If you notice no significant progression come tomorrow then you should be fine.

So day 23 is here, looking better for all of them glad to say. Changed the water put them all on a 50% nute diet.

I found that i think i may of had some root rot, due from when i took them from dirt to hydro not sure,

but the roots on the plants that turned yellow, the roots were kinda dark, not really that white, healthy look you want.

The other 11 plants, the roots in them look great white and growing by the day! I got pics of both root systems.

Other than the changes i made i am going to try to lower the water temp some, and put all my new goodies in

the works, ill have pics of the new stuff i got when it all arrives, prob wednesday.

Comments, Concerns, Please feel free.

Looks like you got the RH up a bit. Good stuff. They indeed look happier today. Do my eyes deceive me or do I see some of that yellow pushing its way out of the leaves?

NOPE YOU GOT THAT RIGHT, i think the yellow is leaving but not THAT sure. dont wanna get

my hopes up and nothing lol, but it is only on 4 the others are fine, not spreading so thats good.

the new leaf starts are opening up on the yellow plants to, so i am a lil happier as they look to be. tomorrow will tell me alot i think.

Plus i hope the new air stones, PH digital checker, and new air pump with 8 outlets show up :) I am gonna try to get another humidifier soon too, wanna hit that 50-60%

But i am going to do my very best to stay on top of the probs, check them and update my setup to a better, smoother running one, i have a partner in this, I DONT MEAN A GUY IM NOT GAY have a wife.

Just my brother from another mother lol but he is the money man he has helped the most with buying shit, just dont mention him, Im the builder checker lol.

But getting there why using bag seeds lol after this one the WONDERWOMEN and SKUNK lol cant wait
