Read the FAQs, still not sure what's the problem

Currently growing two plants from seed. Not sure the strain, but I bought them in a Feminized pack from Sensi Seed in Amsterdam. Currently in 3 gallon pots in a mix ofFox Farm Ocean Forest and Light Warrior and are under flourescent lighting.

From the start, one of the two plants grew a little slower. At 3 weeks, as I typically do, I FIMed both. They've been fed only water except of for once in week 3, where I fed it light organic Nutes. Water fed twice since. One of the plants is flourishing, while the other one is looking weak.

Currently on week four and the top pair of leaves on the weak plant has some slight yellowing on the leaves. But it almost looks like a slight tint of brown. And a little wrinkly. All the rest of the leaves are green, but it's not growing near as healthy as the other girl. And I can't figure out where the yellowing is coming from.

Surely not light burn from flourescent lighting? Is it possible it's just a weaker plant and that's how it is?

Not stressing, just trying to figure out why one girl is growing so much better and the other a little sickly under same conditions. And what is going on with the leaves??

Here's some pics. Thanks for any input!

They are both receiving the Exact same conditions?

If so and 1 is healthier then the other then chances are its just the seeds.

They do look fairly healthy overall.

That's what I'm guessing. It's my 4th grow from these seeds and they've all grown great from the start except this girl. But still not sure why the slight yellowing. I plan on flushing them anyways before flowering, so hopefully it'll clear up...?

They actually look pretty light IMO.

I would consider starting a low dose feeding schedule.

You did say you've only given them nutes once right? Its Definitely Not nute burn.

right on. thanks for the input man. i'll start giving them a little more nutes next feed. hopefully the girl will perk up a little more once i kick her into flower next week.

Yeah I would get her on a low nute program ASAP. Just dont overwater


Really light green leafs and purple stems show that the plant has very slight nutrient deficiency. Most people think Purples are just the strain, But usually a plant will turn purple in low temps or with basic nute deficiencies.

Its Not something I would get stressed out about, if anything its the Slightest of Slight nutrient deficiencies.

And remember, Less is More. If you try to force feed too much nutes it will just lock out.

Yeah, my previous grows seemed to get a little burned to early in the flower stage. So I was trying to back off of the nutes, but maybe I backed off a little too much on this grow. That and I'm going to give my grows a good flushing before flower as well.

Still perfecting my formula! Thanks for advice. I'll keep an eye on her and get her some nutes. Don't worry, I won't overcompensate and burn her!!

Cheers
