it's hard to say, everything looks good in your setup. what kind of soil are you using?

[StickyIcky66]

Its a Royal mix soil...specially for cannabis growing. The royal mix means i basicaly dont have to use nutes for like 7 weeks, and seeing as theyr autoflowering, i reckon i might not have to use any nutes(or i am hoping), what u think? They are both in that soil, and the PHs are the same and perfect. The other one is doing brilliant, the effected one has been wierd since sprouting to be honest, very purpley undertones in places, curling leaf edges in places too.

Could the browning be a big problem? Or do u think its manageble?

Using a gutted out PC drive...3 fans- 1 input, 2 exhaust. 4 CFL 115watt 2700k(seeing as there is VERY if no vegatative state with the lowryder). Basically kitted it for the flowering.

that is very weird. you'd think if it was the nutes in the soil it would have burned them when they were little. what's your watering cycle like? are you letting them dry good in between waterings? over watering is a common mistake. how's the drainage on your pots?

I was kinda thinking this too... possibly damage from over watering in a previous week or something

[StickyIcky66]

Thats the thing...i let them completely dry before watering. Im definitely not over-watering them....theres holes in the pots and its mixed with perlite for drainage.

This is really boggling me! The other plant is doing superb and this one, since starting growth has been slightly wierd with these marks and stuff. Maybe its just like an ugly duckling plant? ha. The plant itself doesnt stink, but the other younger one smell fresh and pungent! Theyr the same strains...its leaves look nice but feel very dry to the touch compared with the other.

Should i maybe start to mist them just before dark period?

[fluid69]

wow, total mind blow. maybe it is a bad seed. one last thought here, I see you've lined your box with mylar or foil, maybe a hot spot? have you tried swithing them?

[StickyIcky66]

Its lined with that car window reflector stuff. Ya iv swithched them on numerous times!! Its not from the lights either as iv raised and dropped with no difference. haha its a boggler.

Probably a bad seed no doubt, maybe its handicapped!

None the less il grow it out, never know, might produce some "retardedly" big buds:stoned:

Will keep ye updated on this daily with pics right through the grow anyways!

Thanks for all your help, appreciate it!:thumbsup:

[greenatik]

are you sure you didnt let water sit on those leaves? after reading through that's the only thing I could come up with...

looks good though I'll be following through this one! my first grow was in a pc
