WW or Hashberry Cfl grow problems

Hi all,

I'm raising either 2 ww, 2 hashberry or 1 ww and 1 hashberry. I'm not sure its a long story, I do know that I started with 2 of each.

They have been under ( [FONT=&quot]4) 23w 2700k, (2) 27w 6500k(daylight) in 18/6 for about 4 weeks now. Plants are in 1gal pots their soil is foxfarm's ocean mix. As of today the only nutes given to them has been some cal-mag given every other watering.

To me the plants aren't growing. A is 9" tall and B is 7". Now some spots are showing up with what looks like nute burn???

The only thing that I can think of is heat stress because their home is usually in the 80-82 mark on a cool day :cry:. I think the lowest has been 78 at one point.

Here are some pics of them. Thank you all for taking the time to check them out and help me if you can.

nitogean def flush the plants with water ph of 5.5 and let dry then carry on feeding.Make the feed up has you need it rather than haveing it made up in advance this can change the ph.If it is a burn of cfl's then i would swop a few of the warm daylight spec for cool daylight this will give the plants the light they need.A few warm daylight spec is all that is needed to get the heat needed to grow a good plant under cfl's.I would also transfer to bigger tubs the plan may be root bound prematurely water once a week bt when you do wet the plant through to combat this.Look at the drainage holes to check if roots are showing if so transfer into a bigger tub.

good lookin' out tyke. very much appreciated. I'll definitely get on it. They have been in those tubs for about 1.5 weeks. My space is limited so their next tub is a 2gal which I was going to put them in before flowering. Is it too late to top or train these to try and get more of a bush happening? after they healthy up some, of course.

Thanks southernsmoke. I might do it to these..if not definitely on the next round.
