Whats the problem with these guys..
The temp is around 80 and i havent fed them any nutes except some superthrive(3 drops in 3 gallons).
The leaves are solid, and the plant seems happy except for the contortionist trick its pulling..

Some of the leaves are showing a small sign of being hungry for some nutes.(a lil discoloration) and tiny brown spotting

planted on March 27 2006 from seeds in peat pellets. Sprouted 3-4 days later. I put superthrive and 1/4th of a tsp of GH floragrow in the half gallon of water iI used to expand the pellets. since then i have only fed them water untill the roots popped out the bottom. then went Hydro with them in 3 gallons of water. With 3 more drops of Superthrive and a 1/4 of Floragro.
they were under 125wts of florescent. now under 400watts of HPS.

They have been drinking this reservoir of water for 4 days now. Will change the water to PH 6.5-7 tonight. These guys started showing signs of the droop yesterday morning and Slowly continued to cringe over the next 34 hours. this is after 34 hours then..The leaves dont feel dehydrated or flimsy.. they feel really strong.

Ok, I rewatered my reservoir with 2 gallons of water with/// 4 Ml's of General Hydroponics Grwo, Micro and Bloom. Also, i added 2 drops of superthrive.

Will post pics in a few hours

Would still appreciate some info on what kind of deficiency this could be, or over/underwatered?

ok , the time is 11:00 apr 13th, and my babies have not shown any improvement. they also havent shown any signs of worsening either.
I'll post more pics in an hour or 2..

How fast can i expect a change?
Don't really know how fast they react to different environment.

Could be to much nutrient.
Jorge Cervantes book Indoor Growing has some great pics of both plants w/defiencies and to much nutrient.
Check it out.

Just a guess here. I live in the mountains and battle cold temps with the help of the lamps... On several occasions over 3 grows I've seen that look from the temp dropping down below 70 degrees. Wondering how much light you have to?

Good luck!
