Any idea what the pH of your soil is? What type of soil are you using? What nutrients? How often are you feeding the plant nutrients (if any)? That would really help out...knowing the pH would really help point to any nutrients being locked out or not.

Just from the photos, I am willing to bet a pH-associated problem. Get to your hydro shop and get some litmus strips, or a cheap pH reader and let us know!

Yea what nutes are you using? It does look like Nitrogen def but I'm not 100 percent.. What's the ph levels? And def what kind of soil are you using?

I am using this soil less mix---> http://royalgoldcoco.com/basement_mix.html

I think ph of soil was anywhere from 5-6.3 Um I found out that feeding was really really lacking. Plants were feed once about two weeks ago and then they started to get flushed maybe 10days ago since there was a salt build up... I Just started the BMO full line that feeding 2 weeks ago but that was it since.
