Could be over-fertilization, or maybe something like not enough ventilation/too much heat?

havnt fertalised it before but just done it today to see if it makes a difference and given it more ventilation which will cool it down as well . but getting a bigger wardrobe nxt week which will hopefully help and enable me to grow two plants .



will post some pics soon

How old is the plant? and what kind of soil are you using? At about 2 to 3 weeks you really do need to start using some nutes, something that is high in nitrogen, that is why your leavs are probably turning yellow, because the new growth on the top of the plant is sucking the N from the lower leavs in order to premote new growth.

Yes u need nutes. but not a whloe lot. also it would help if u transplanted to abigger container. if it is to tall start training it, by tying the plant down. be careful on far u pull the plant down.. good luck

could be over watering, thats what causes my yellows leaves most of the time, but if they turn brown rip them off to avode any rot,

tying them down stops them growing to high.
