Im running a 300w Apollo led light. Roughly 18 inches from plant. Temps stays 83-85 with lights on, 18/6. doesnt get below 80 with the lights off. bottom row of fan leaves are starting to turn yellow and wilt a little. Soil is bone meal, blood meal, mushroom compost, black cow, perlite, lime. Got the soil mix from a super soil recipe. Only issue was finding the bat guano and azomite. Trainwreck feminized seeds. Two plants but only one is showing issues. Ive read its a nitrogen deficiency. If so, how do I fix this? Just redue the soil? Add some blood meal? im in early veg stage. Freakin out here.20141216_112814.jpg20141215_201523.jpg

They look ok to me if the soil is good you won't get any deficiencies for a while yet, although that soil does look very cloggy like not to great for drainage meaning no air to the roots (overwatering) can make them go yellowy sometimes, them 2 leaves u speak if they were the 1st leaves to appear from the seed (embryonic leaves) I think there supposed to fall off not too sure about that thoe I use cuttings usually

Dont spray your plants! You are asking for mold . Your temps are way to hot, your plant is showing signs of heat stress. veg 65-75f. I think we tend to mimick a tropical enviro but its not nessessary. Keep it cool and dry (no more the 40% humidity) and you'll have happy colorful plants

We dont spray them. Sloppy watering before picture. Ill take a note to that. Im worried about dropping the temp that much. Everything I read said trainwreck needs lower to mid 80s. We've raised the light and im go I to add some more perlite to the soil. Hopefully raising the light fixes the heat stress issue. If not, ill drop the temp. Ill post another pic here in a couple days. Thanks for the look out people
