NEED HELP

[saltrock1.]

Hello,
I am a new grower. And just haveing a hard time identifying my problem with my mother plant. My bottom leaves are yellowing from the bottom up. Not at an alarming rate or anything but I am a little concerned. Also my leaves are curling under as you see in the pic, not the sun leaves, but the leaves on the side branches like where you would clone. This is what I have: an advantage 400w system balice built in. A 3x4 foot closet. The light is about 15-18 inches from the plant. Temp 80 degrees tops but ave 77 degrees, night time as low as 60 degrees.The PH balance for my water is between 6.5 and 6.3. Also I water 250ml of water when the light turns on. For soil I am using a half fox farms and half happy frog. I attached the photo of the soil. For nutrients I am useing, bigfoot nutrient solution,grandma enggys F-1 solution, and liquid karma that I have posted the picture of the solutions. I have been reading around and I have not checked the PH in the soil so that mabye it. But I did read today that if your growing with soil you want your PH to be between 5.6 and 5.8. Any advice would be good I appreciate anyones time.

That's incorrect and I can GUESS who posted that pH number... grr... just one more reason I'm glad he's on vacation.
Soil pH range is 6.5-6.8.
Get your minimum temp up to 65.
FLUSH those plants well with water adjusted to pH 6.8 to bring your soil in range.
Those skinny leaves look to me like cold +too wet + too acidic = plant is not able to uptake nutes properly. You're in a flush-or-die situation! Fluuuuuush!!!!!

Hey thanks stinkyattic for your reply. I also posted that question at another growers forum and he told me that half of my soil ph balanced and half is not.What I did was transplanted into a 3 gallon pot and was growing fine then 2 weeks later I saw signs of yellowing and thought the plant had already used up all of the soils nuts. So that when I started to add all those nuts.Do you know much about cloning. thanks again for your time.

Thanks

Stinky knows a whole lot about cloning, but she's kinda busy right now with a sick family member and there are a couple other people on this board that know a thing or two about cloning. If you have cloning questions, start a thread in the Basic Growing section and ask away. Your questions will be answered. :thumbsup:

Oh shoot, I missed the end of the post, check out the link in my signature for my cloning instructions and as PC said, when you have any specific Qs, start a thread in Basic about them.
