Over watering?

This is my first grow and this plant is just over two weeks. It's Northern Lights and I am growing with Happy Frog soil. All I have is 3 26W CFLs on this in a small rubbermaid setup. I am just wondering if anyone knows what this problem could be. The very bottom leaves are yellow and the tips of the two leaves above that are also yellow. It looks like it could be over watering which I have probably been doing. Also, the leaves are sticking up pretty straight. Is that normal? The plant is about 2" away from the lights. Thanks.

Hmmm, ive had my plants do this but i cant remember why it was. Check the marijuana plant problem guide.

Its to young to worry about bro. Just water when they are thirsty and it will all work out
 
The two leaves above the bottom most round leaves that have yellow tips in the pictures are pretty much completely yellow now. Is that normal too? Hoping this isn't going to be making its way up the plant anymore.

its underwatering. when the leaves go up its like the plant is praying for water.
I have no experience at all with happy frog mix, but I've heard some VERY negative feedbacks about it. consider changing it.
 
i have the exact same problem, using gold all soil light thought, not sure if its over watering/under watering or lack of nutrients so i gave them their first batch f grow food today and a good watering as im going on a trip for 4 days so hopefully they'll be better when i get back. let me know how yours get on, mine are white dwarf autos under a 250w clf bulb

Yea, I'll let you know what happens in the next few days and let me know about how yours end up doing. I am considering giving my first dose of nutrients since I'm now around 3 weeks but I don't know if that's what the problem is.
 
i wouldnt give them any nutrients!! i gave them some and probably too much water before leaving on my trip, came back 4 days later and they were all dead :( :( could also have been because we had no air circulation going while we were gone, going to try again tho, this time with lowryders no2 good luch tho with yours
 
The yellowing has stopped spreading and the plant still seems like it is growing slowly but it is no longer stunted. I probably lost 4 leaves all together and a few leaves still have some yellow or brown on them. I gave it some epsom salt in water and I also gave it some Fox Farm Grow Big. Not sure what the problem was or if it is even gone. We'll find out.
