10-??
The 2 SLH like the soil more soil than hydro so far it seems to me. The Afghan is a bit of a slow learner, as well as the Purple Kush. Temps are at 78 here. I started adding some nutes. Im still a noob, and am using GH floragro and floramicro hardwater. mixed them correctly and what not i believe just dont know what to expect lol. Do they look funky at all?
The soil that ur using should have food already in it if its any good, i dont add food for a good at least 2 weeks im not saying you cant but at make sure that its like 1/2 strength or less.My opinion from what i do is based on my results,others add food alot earlier than me but its just that I've burnt alot of young plants.The most i add is root exl and superthrive. Dont overdo the the watering but nake sure you water every part of the pot when you do,in some pics only the center looks wet.
Pic 3 dont look the best .. think it could be the watering..

actually dre your prolly right on the watering call. I used 1/8 strength nutes of floragro and floramicro for 1/2 gallon of water at 7.0ph. i dont know of a good water schedule in general with soil. Ive only grown in hydro before so i understand mixing the nutes. A watering plan or link to a good one would be awesome. thanks for the help!

They all seem a light green in color. I figure id back off the water since ive been watering once a day and it seems thats too much possibly. Other than that im still seeing great growth. They like the nute soup for sure though, the little ones finally got a spring. And now they are all in soil. The Afghan went into a solo cup for now

I water mine twice a week with water only ,i feed them every sun/mon with food, put your finger about "1" into the soil if ifs moist then dont water . Dont water every day you'll def mess up you plants ,they're way to young to need so much water.

sun-feed
mon-
tue-water
wed-
thur-
fri-water
sat-

thats just what i do ,you'll probally find someone who does it diff,but this works for me, sometimes i add a teamix(guano&molasses) on the watering days.
Always check the pots first though and this schedule is not set in stone sometimes they get fed on monday it all depends on how the soil feels/plants look but i also spray every 2 days tea/or water.
Hope this helps..

ya the soil has been wet. I will wait till it dries up a bit to think about watering again. As for molasses, does it really make a good difference? its had my attention lately. I wish there was a place in one spot to easily find all the lil tricks like that. the forum is great but the search feature is something that you have to work with a bit to make work accurately. But its still good. will prolly post pics tomorrow..

The leaves are looking dry and crispy in Picture number 2, 3 and 5, too much nutes it looks like to me, they need a good flush and watering everyday is bad practice man you need to let the soil dry out a bit, hope they recover for you!

ya i only use the nutes once, and water every other day. wont be watering today. the soil is so damn light n fluffy. i can easily put my whole finger in it and sometimes it wont be moist at all. is this when i would use epsom salt? it seems like they are missin a good amount of summin. thanks for the reply! btw i did raise the light a bit, cuz one day it got warmer outside then the news said so it was like 90 all day. but nice n low temps again.

Looks more like nute burn than a def.. iron or mag. Looks more like rust I believe than yellowing and shriveling

Just feed every time with just water I give a gal a peice wait tell the soil dries out a little than water again until they bounce back

Than start using nutes again but only like 1/4 stregth than build up

Your right it doesnt look like nute burn at all!!!

What type of soil is that....does it have anythign to feed them in there at all.

Just lookin at your pics looks like the plants are a little on the yellow side and thats a sign of them being hungry for sure.

well i have well water which is right around 7.0 ph. i dont have a digital meter. only digital meter i have is a ppm/tds stick for nutes/hydro. So i have a feeling my water could be causing it, but im using happy frog soil which i believe you are also phyre, i could be wrong. I have a bottle of floragrow and floramicro HardWater. but since its soil its like a new book compared to the hydro i did. I feed them every other day in the mornings. usually the soil is dry about an inch down when they get water.
