Just out of curiousity, what kind of soil are you in and when was the last time you transplanted? Temps and Nutes? It looks to me like that plant wants more N. But if you fill out a troubleshooting form you will get a better answer. You said you just adjusted the ph to 6.5 about a week and a half ago. What was it before then?

Perhaps it's just the pics but the other two seem to be showing signs of yellowing as well. Tough to say with out more information. Post answers to pushit's questions and / or fill the trouble shooting form. Time to repot? Perhaps. pH imbalance? Maybe. Needing increased nute load? Could be that too. Did you check the pH coming out?

the ph was high before. the tap here is about pH 8 but i didnt know that till recently. good eye, yes the others are showing yellow but theyve been like that. only the one has gotten worse. the temps range from 70 light off to 78 light on. soil is just some i got from home depot, prob scotts or something i dont remember. last transplant was 5 weeks ago. nutes are general hydroponics maxiBloom (5-15-14). i'm doing 10grams for every 4 liters as per the package.

Oh... well... ok so you have a number of issues that need IMMEDIATE attention. The other plants haven't had that issue all along and even if they have so? They are still telling you something...

1. Up-pot yesterday. Since you didn't do that do it today. Don't delay. Flush after transplant. 2x volume pot size : water will be sufficient since you will have just added fresh soil. If you are in 1 gallon pots give them 2 gallons of water. Refer to item 3 below. You never told us how big those pots are that they are in now.

2. Figure out your soil. My advices is to get a bag of Fox Farm Ocean Forest. You won't need to add any nutes. Just go with it. It is so easy.

3. Fix your pH issue before you water again.

4. If you go with the FFOF in flower you can add a touch of nutes @ 1/8 strength. Also, no nutes for 1 week after transplanting regardless of the soil you use.

Act now. You are going to have real issues in a week regardless but if you act now you will recover. And don't use the Scotts soil. Likely it has some heavy time release nutes added. Go with the FFOF and save yourself some hassle. Please?
