well, i believe, that my pH should be 6.5 and that is what it is. I just came back from work, checked the plants and it's getting worse every day. bottom leaves are completely yelow on some plants, on some there are brown and grey spots. Leaves higher up seems to be unafected on most of the plants but there is a few small spots on some of them an on the others there are spots of light green aroun vains. I have tried to give them little bit of trace mix with some Mn in it (1/4 of rec. dosage but it is gonna take time to show result.) But I think it should at lest stop spreading which it hasn't. I'll send pictures in a minute.
I am very nervous... And hopeles. I'ts like mile last crop, wher it was very simillar. I thought it was pH but by the time my meter arrived it was too late with them. And now again. And it isn't pH. And it isn't nute lock because I gave them fert only once before this happened and only 1/4 of dose. Please help anyone!

and this is the poor bastartd from my first try. It is about 4 weeks older than the small ones, but I still keep it in veg state. But what is realy frustrating is that I can't save the think. I flushed, kept it on ph'd water for 8 days thanstarted giving it low ammounts of ferts and no result. It doesn't grow anymore, even the new sprouts are yelow and it has a purple stems an very thin leaves. jus in case anyone has a idea. But my bigest concern are obviusly the new ones

If this were my problem, I'd remove the affected foliage and not water until the soil was all but totally dry, THEN soak it and thoroughly drain it. I see you have a drip pan under your plant. Wet feet?

2 weeks shit there big! wish I didnt stunt mine lol they still wouldnt be that big if I didnt. But anyway yea I would chop those leafs and only give them water for there next to waterings also keep ph 6-6.4

well, not really. I do water about 2 times in 3 days but my cuppboard is fairly hot (about 28-30C) so they drink quite a lot. I allways water when first inch of soil is dry. But what I want to ask is, how one plant can afect the other one. especially when the problems are nute related (very likely)?

they are 18 days old now. not 2 weeks anymore.

does anyone know, how often you should supply Epson salt and trace mix to plants, to keep them happy. If epson salt mix should be 1-2ml to 1 l and trace mix 0,25-1ml to 1L. And the same question about main veg fert. 2-4ml on 1l. (bottle says every watering, but that seems to be to harsh)

They could be using the energy from the lower leaves to build their root system if they don't have enough food in the soil. The one you showed in the veg state that's older have you been feeding it with anything? It looks nitrogen starved. Personally I don't worry so much about the lower leaves as they will be removed later or I'll use the lower branches for clones. I don't know anything about the soil your using. I use Fox Farm.
