Do these look OK to you guys ?

[splatm1n2]

These are NL from Nirvana, 3 weeks into veg, no nutes yet just tap water everyday. The lights are 2x125w(6500k) envirolites, photoperiod is 16/8. I will get a PH adjusting kit soon as i approach 12/12. Any advice you can give us?

N.B. I am concerned as to the brown marks on the plant in pic 3, is this just burn from the light ?


Thanks guys.

I noticed that they are all growing at a different rate, some fans are fatter than others from plant to plant, i guess this is just genetics. Please don`t laugh that they are soo small.

Why are the so compact ? no lateral branches yet.

More of the same, i hav used milar, not tin foil and the lights are about 2 inches from the tallest plant.

Hey splat u said the plants are 3 weeks old ?....If so they look a little undeveloped for that time frame?hmmm...I would think maybe u should switch to a light period of 24-7 for another week or so....just to get them a little more developed...or 20-4....have u used any superthrive with ur waterings i used it and it works very well for the transplanting and for vegging....its not a nute its an additive and contains vitamins and hormones for building healthy roots and increasing foliage....u should definately get a ph kit and test that tap waters ph.....just my 2 cents:thumbsup:

Thanks for the reply dude, i would say newrly 3 weeks, and yes i will increase the light cycle to 18/6 and see if i can get some superthrive and see then what happens.

I have moved the lights a couple of inches away incase it is heat stress.

no prob.....I would try to put them under for 24hrs for 7days or 20-4 for a week......just to give them an extra boost....How far were ur lights? I keep my cool blues about 3 to 4in away max..... u want the light close but not that close to burn them.....the browning of the leaves might be a ph problem....need to check that asap before u start adding any nutes...here is a pic of one of my plants blueberry strain..in first week of flowering:thumbsup:

Wow how long has that been in veg for ? Looks nice and tight, bet you`re looking forward to flowering?

I`ll get a ph kit today, do i need to test the PH of the soil or just the water i`m adding ?

Splat,
You have good light obviously because your internodes are tight.
But it is time to start feeding.
One thing I am seeing is that those plants look a little overwatered. Luckily they will be ready to repot very very soon, and when you repot them, mix even MORE perlite into your potting soil for better drainage. You may be also seeing a combination of low pH and wet soil. That yellowing and spotting is not JUST from the lack of nutes.
