Conditions!!
I am growing Himilaya Gold and the medium being used is Coco, the humidity of the room is 58% and the temperature is at 25'c. The plants are two weeks old and they are growing under a 400W HPS. Plants are tall and leggy however a fan has been added close by which is already showing signs of improvement by hardening the stem.

Problem #1!
A plant has turned yellow on the new leaves beginning to sprout and on the second newest leaves have a yellow spreading from the vein outwards. It seems to be a nitrogen deficiency but just confirming with you guys?

Problem #2
Brown spots have appeared on two leaves and where it has spread the leaf has gone dry and died, it is like dry bud ready to grind and sprinkle in a joint. I was considering removing the leaves however at such an early stage the stress may be too great? What do you guys think?

if they come off with a small pluck take it, if not leave it, the yellowing could be a deficiency, but i mean my new growth is never the SAME color as growth that has fully developed it more of a lime/greenyellow then itafter its to size then its dark green, without pics then i cant SEE what your talking about, though

I'm using a blackberry so I'm not able to upload pictures its too stressful. The seeds were from herbies head shop and I thought that could be the case with new growth however many other plants I have are not the same.. This is the only one yellowing. So would it be safe to say its a nitrogen deficiency? Another intresting fact is the one of the oval shape leaves under the leaf has a yellow bubble to it which looks exactly like pictures of nute burn I've seen so do you think that could be it? Has anybody got suggestions to how I can upload a pic easier as I have taken photos to show..

First time growing and commenting on this great forum so really appreciate this guys!

CANNA coco I think, I put hard water kept at room temperature in the soil sometimes however at the moment I am using a dilute solution of water, a green solution made by Canna called version B for use with canna coco, Cannazym, General Hydroponics's FloraMicro for use with hard water, and PH down by General Hydroponics. The lights are around 24 inches away, It is a 2000W set up with just the 400W light on at the moment. They are HPS's as mentioned before and a 400W as previosuly mentioned within this message.

not to be taken as fact, but when my leaves start turning yellow when they are young, it might be a defficiency technically or whatever but Ive found its usually too much of something (overfeeding) moreso than not enough of something (deficiency)

I have uploaded pics into the thread. I am quite suprised nobody knows exactly what's wrong? I am aware the picture doesn't capture the issue with enough clarity as you would have if you was actually present to see it, but I do need help with this so please somebody help me.

Answer #1 - no, probably not nitrogen deficiency. that usualy starts at the bottom, and not the top
Answer #2 - brown spots... never good. depends where they are tho. leaf tips? splotched all over the leaf?

HPS is great for flowering, not vegetative growth. what are you feeding them? whats your light schedule? and do you own a camera? or perhaps have one on a cellphone?

Yes I own a camera can't anybody see the pictures I uploaded on page 1? And I see, well the yellowing did start at the top so thanks for virtually ruling out N deficiciency. The brown spots are on the leaf tips spreading to eventually take over the leaf.
