are you watering with water straight from the tap as it looks ike a mg and zinc deficiency, mg and zinc get locked out with the flouride in the water? or its lock out through over feed ,flush let some water sit 24to 48 hours in a open container then get it ph correct and flush and it should be ok.be safe the postman.oh and defenetly put it in a bigger pot that will help it also.
simular problems. leaves are droppy and discolored. light green and dark green. they culed up at the tips and are turning brittle a tiny bit. and some leaves are getting brown around the edges. 250w, 4 weeks old, fox farm ocean forest for soil, no ferts. any info would be helpful.
well not the same problems but some health issues. more pics

yeah it's been watered with water in a open container sitting around. i think ti's over fert. it's been on full strength and watered with it everytime it's been watered. but it's been flushed and back to just plain water. how often do you think it should be feed? once every two waterings?

oh ferd. what kind of camera do you use? thsoe are some good upclose pictures. my camera can't do those types of shots.
postman thanks. here are more photos after the help. dookie, i use a panasonic camcorder with digital zoom. i use a 24-8-16 miracle grow. i really haven't use it that much, i gave them some while they were young. and some about a week ago. any one ever use this and know how much and how often. i'm really new at this.
do you think the first pic is a pre flower?
i used spring water. to water my plants, proper ph with no nutes added. right after i feed them; they drooped drastically. is that over watering or something in the spring water.

How are you PH the Water?Something is being locked out.Can you check the ppms of the water? Peace
i'm sorry. i'm a newbie, i don't know what ppm is. the ph is around the 6.8 mark. i let the water sit in gallon juggs over a few days with the cap open. i don''t do much for nutes. i use foxfarm ocean forest for soil. i did give them a bit of miracle grow. that might have something to do with it maybe. i tried flushing but i don't think i used enough water. if i flush, is it safe to flush from the faucet and water with ph corrected water. and also i know soil needs to dry out for the roots to breath, is it safe to let the soil stay a bit wet till i figure this out?

ferd,
do you test the ph of the run off? I noticed that it is 6.5 going in and 7.0 coming out. i also would like to know when testing the ppm's do you test the runoff, the water mix or both?
i don't test the run off after watering. i have a ph probe that i stick in the soil. and the ppm's i don't understand one lick about them.

ppm's are pretty simple concept to understand. ec/tds meters are the same thing basically. total desolved solids=parts per million in the solution. say 1 ts of nutes makes the water 500 ppm's...hell i dont know. haha. i just got one. i am guessing you use that meter to get a nute recipe down pack for a certain strain you grow or to stay in the ballpark range of ppm's during the differnt stages
someone mentioned that no ppm's are to be worried about if fox farm ocean forest is being used for soil
