Ok so 3 of my 5 plants are looking ill. Could you tell me what you all think may be causing me these issues.

Plant #1: This plant was tranplanted about a week ago and has been steadily getting yellower on the lower branches. New growth still comming from bottom nodes just the big leafs are turning.

Plant #2: This one is the biggest plant i have going to far. I had some edges of the leafs curling a week ago. I was pretty sure that it was due to heat, so i mavoed the lamp up and got my temps under control. Now the new growths are so curled they are almost curled shut. Sorry about the poor picture.

Plant #3: This girl has a few problems and i think i am on the way to correcting one of my mistakes. I think i may have beenn over watering this girl, the only reason i can think for the leaves to be so droopy. Now thought if you look at the bottom leaf in my picture there are brown spots popping up. Is this nute burn or something else?

Thnx for all your help.
 
Hi, 1 of them looks a bit overwatered to me...and the yellow spots... umh are you giving them any nutes?
 
I am using FF Grow Big. I stopped using it on the plant with the brown spots.
I started ferting them after 1 week of growth with a 1 Tbl Spoon per Gallon. Used that for a week then moved up to 2 Tbl Spoons a gallon.
 
For one thing Fox farms Grow Big says 1Teaspoon per gallon! Then you can increase to 2 teaspoons per gallon.
You also fertilized way to early never add ferts till they are at least 3 weeks old. They are all showing signs of nute burn. Just water no nutes for the next two weeks. Then start adding the Grow Big 1 teaspoon per gallon. You should be using Fox farm Big Bloom with these now.
 
I am not flowering yet. So should i use Big Bloom? I was gonna give em onter week veg then swicth it over. I gotta get these done a harvested because i got 6 more in my veg room :). Luckily all i have em under is 4 4' fluros and they are growing slower than snot.
 
they look underfed...with a ph problem...along with somewater andheat or humidity problems....


the edges curling like that is from water stressing of some sort... the small droopy plant is either under or overwatered and is experiencing a P lockout or defficiency. by lifting the pots after you water and noting he weight in your memory.. wait a few days and lift the pots and note the weight..also a cheap moisture meter may be a great tool for you

I agree. What is the Ph of the soil and water you use?
What kind of soil is that?
Twisted plants can be Ph problems, soil grows you want around 6.5
 
I have'nt yet purchased a soil PH tester but i am adding PH adjusted water between 6.0-6.5. Gonna pick up a moisture meter and a soil PH tester in about 2 weeks( gotta pay bills first :( )

And i am using Expert Gardner potting soil with some added Perlite.
