Hello,
Here are some pics of my seedlings. I am following the same watering cycle for each one, the one as of today has brown on its tips, the other is doing good as far as I know along with the 4 small ones.


My question is what could cause the one to have its leaves turn color? It is fairly smaller then the one plant too, though the same age.


My friend said it might be from an accidental splash of nute water on the leaves?


Any help would be gratefully appreciated! :-)1356242654058.jpg1356242659785.jpg1356242665657.jpg

I have been following the fox farm chart and have the small amount of big bloom for nutes. I have been watering in a 3 day cycle, 1 nutes, 2 ph water(6.8), and 3 let dry. Then repeat.

And when I water I use a measuring cup with a pour lip, however every now and then it splashes, thus with the plants being small still some will hit the leaves.

no nutes. what so ever (unless root stimulant) till the cotelydons fall off. any nutes when they are that tiny= nute burn. you have probably stunted your plants

dont nute them till their round leaves turn yellow and fall off, thats where their initial nutrients are stored in ;)

OK. Haha typical noob mistake. Haha. Its a good thing these are my bag seeds and not my lemon Diesel or one of my widows. Haha.

So when I do start using nutes, would I start at week one? Or start at week 2-3 depending on when they fall off?

whenever they fall off, start giving them 1/4 strength nutrients. thats the sign of them using up all their stored nutrients.
