My 2 and a half week old plant has a few leaves that are a very light green, with a little yellowish color to them. When it was about a week old i had it in a bad spot and the room it was in got to around 100*. the bottom leaves which i think are called the fan leaves got a yellow instantly and about 2 days ago have completely died and fallen off while the rest of the plant keeps growing. The room its in now is a constant 78* with the lights on and falls about 10* when they are off, it is currently on an 18/6 light schedule. I dont know why the leaves are yellowish and i would like to know if any one knows what it would be and what i could do to fix it, or if that is just the color of the plant. Thank you for your help.:rasta:

Need pix for better opinion, but you might want to consider giving them a very weak strength fert. Is it the lower leaves that you're losing? Sometimes thats normal for a baby plant.

Yeah it was just the very first 2 leaves that sprout from the ground, but i did some more research and i also found a lil white centipede like bug in the soil, so i researched and i think i have a small infestation of thrips, and when i looked underneath i saw 2 lil black balls under the leaves, so i added a lil fert and im working on making a jalapeno spray, but im also gonna transfer the plant soon and i turned a fan on, so im thinking i have all the possibilities covered, thanks for the help:rasta:

check the soil and your water/fert ph and keep an eye on it if you can raise the daytime temp n what about light ITS NOT ENOUGH
