My Indoor Grow,
Thats great, but my next question is, what kind of soil are you using and have you been giving any fertilizers at all? Make sure they get the light they need and read the links iv put here. Plus you really need to read more. There isn't a grower here thats ''good'', that doesnt read all the time, so being new, you got to read as much as you can. Read some grow logs, they have helped me and there are pic's which can give you plenty of incentive to learn! Cuz your going to say to yourself, ''i want what he/she's got:thumbsup: Start here and find a solution to help with root growth, then copy and paste other link. I have got ya started, now do some reading and if ya got questions, just let me know, im glad to help, but ya need to help yourself too, by reading. This nute chart was posted by BobBong in the Grow FAQ'S, its a great place to start reading. Good luck:rasta:

Hey gang.. i've noticed a lot of us seem to be incorrectly identifying plant problems.. so I thought i'd do some digging and came up with this..hopefully it clears up any misunderstandings some people might have about picking out a nute deficiency.
NITROGEN (N)
Pale plants, red stems, smaller growth. Rapid yellowing of lower leaves progressing up the plant. Add any chemical fertilizer containing N. Treated plants recover in about a week.
PHOSPHORUS (P)
Slow or stunted growth, red stems. Smaller leaves that are dark green. Lower leaves yellow and die. Add chemical fertilizer containing P. Affected leaves will not show recovery but new growth will apear normal.
POTASSIUM (K)
Affected plants are usually tallest and appear to be most vigorous. Necrotic spots form on lower leaves. Red stems. Leaves appear pale or yellow. Add chemical fertilizer containing K.
CALCIUM (Ca)
Lack of calcium in the soil results in the soil becoming too acid. This leads to Mg or Fe deficiency or very slow stunted growth. Treat by foliar feeding with one teaspoon of dolomatic lime per quart of water until condition improves.
SULFER (S)
Plants suffering from S definciencies exhibit yellowing of new growth. Mix one tablespoon of Epsom salts per gallon of water until condition improves.
MAGNESIUM (Mg)
Lower leaves yellow and may even turn white while veins remain dark green. Blades die and curl upward.
IRON (Fe)
Leaves on growing shoots turn pale and veins remain dark green. pH imbalances make iron insoluble. Foliar feed with chemical fertilizer containing Fe or rusty water.
MANGANESE (Mn)
Necrotic and yellow spots form on top leaves. Mn deficiency occurs when large amounts of Mg are present in the soil. Foliar feed with any chemical fertilizer containing Mn.
BORON (B)
Growing shoots turn grey or die. Growing shoots appear burnt. Treat with one teaspoon of Boric acid (sold as eyewash) per gallon of water.
MOLYBDENUM (Mb)
Yellowing of middle leaves. Foliar feed with chemical fertilizer containing Mb.
ZINC (Zn)
White areas form at leaf tips and between veins. Occurs in alkaline soils. Zn deficiency can be treated by burying galvanized nails in the soil. Chemical fertilizer containing Zn can also be used.
OVER FERTILIZATION
Causes leaf tips to appear yellow or burnt. To correct soil should be flushed with three gallons of water per one gallon of soil.
