am i just being worried??? grow virgin problems

[cturner1984]

right so here i go problem first i have 2 plants both in pics the biggest one has started to get yellow patches appearing on leaves about 5 days ago with slight brown spots apperaing over the yellow some deformed maybe??,not growing very tall there 15 days old.(ive sprayed them once a day with normal stood tap water as they look dry i water once the soil looks dry untill it drips slightly out of the bottom say every 2 days or so
the strain is a royal dutch six shooter indica feminized
id just like some reasurance they look healthy and are growing well.as im new to it any changed and my heart beats a little bit faster lol theyve become my new children
im using a 600w hps light in a grow tent temps are 27 celsius upto 33 humidity lights on 30-30% lights off 70-75%
westland multi purpose compost with added john innes
nutes added are 1 slow release miracle grow tablet and i added a small amount of cana A to boost N as im thinking this may be the problem?.nutes i will be using are canna cocoa a and b combined?but not to sure when to start introducing a small amount~? also some big bud stuff (molasses)etc
repotted to 5ltr pots 2 days ago as i noticed roots coming out of the other pots
water ph'd when added is 6.8(i can use a 7.8 mineral)? i tried a run off and it came back as 5.1
so ive added garden lime to the top of the soil and raked it in abit also watered with some garden lime in around a teaspoon?
these are things im going off through research but........theres so many different things
anyway heres some pics to start of and any info would be very much appreciated thanks.

Good be numerous things. Fill out the troubleshooting form please?

I'm no pro but may I suggest it could be related to:
-Over nutes?
-PH?
-Heat?

Relax Brah,:rastasmoke:

You have addressed the PH problem, now you need to wait and see.

The old growth will not tell you much it will likely get worse regardless of remedy.

Watch the new growth for guidance.
Be a good idea to fill out the "troubleshooting sticky" for missing details.
You will get more useful advice.

yes it seems to be on old growth new growth seems quite vibrant!it stinks allready lol
do you think they look ok? as i have some more due to sprout dont wanna f it up?!

Yeah my guess on this is a pH problem. You've already addressed this situation so just sit back for a week or 2 and watch the new growth that'll tell you if you're on the right track.:thumbsup::thumbsup:

[Agoblue97]

Another thing to help with the soil's pH is to raise your ingoing water/nute pH lvls to maybe around 7.0-7.5 pH until you get the soil runoff to start coming in around 6.1-6.5.:thumbsup::thumbsup:

[cturner1984]

ive tried tests with the water,when i add nutes (cana a and b) the ph drops my tap water after its been stood is around 6.1 to 6.8 ph could i use a mineral water with a 7.8 ph for a while till i start feeding then add nutes to it which will probably drop it to around 6.5.6.8 mark
thanks

compost plus feeding at 15 days? there is a big problem. start flushing with a ph of 7-7.5. no more nutes added for a while. your soil has a low ph and does not require extras for a while. in fact it shouldnt be used for young ones. use a simpler soil then upgrade nutes.

[cturner1984]

thanks for the info,the only nutes i have added are a minute bit of cana a ass i thought it might be N def,also a slow release miracle grow tablet...which ive now raked back out.the soil ph level is 5-6 as it states on the back of the packet when bought with nothing added..at the mo im letting them dry out..so once this is done ill just water with the best ph'd mineral water i can find buxton is 7.8 so then hopefully they will look more vibrant.
i have big new growth of better colour but the tips on a few leaves seem to point down.maybe because i have been overwatering.i havent watered for 36hours now and they seem moist enough.?

youll find this an ongoing battle so keep flushing and hope for the best. seems like the root system is shutting down aka not using water/nutes fast enough. mineral water might be bad because it might have too much ppm's. try using reverse osmosis water, at least for a while. check that out though i think we are in different regions. flushing for me always a problem...drowning. so i prefer preventitive maintnence. you said 27 celsius and then lights off 70-75% is that celsius also, because thats too much heat...way too much.
