Hello this is my first grow, I am using a 3x1.5X2 tent (10X5X7)... 5 days on 12/12

Everything seems ok apart from a leaf here and there, air circulation is perfect, humidity is 50% temp is 25-27C... I've been spraying them with neem oil for the past 3 days.

Any advice pls

first of all, dont freak out about it. Planting weed is always about to have fun and learn more and more.
For me it seems that your plants are burning because of excess of nutes. I use to face this kind of problem often when I start planting. The tricky part is that when your plants burn sometimes they also show some sign of nute deficiency (cal/mag in your case) but not necessary you have to give her more nutes. We need more information about your grow, soil, what you`ve been giving her etc. but I would cut the nutes for now and give her just ph water and wait for improvements. If the yellowing leaves increase I would say is Cal/Mag Def.

There are a lot of people here that can help you. Your plants are looking good. Not worry too much is the key.

@CornerStone thanks a million, well I've been using my garden soil but I know it's rich enough, I've been adding to my back yard some cow manure, leaves, excess veg etc for years... I only added notes to my plants once and tpday was the second time since I thought it was deficiency in nutes, I only give them NPK that's all. I water the plants once every 2-3 days depending on how dry they are but usually I wait till they are completely dried out.

If it's excess nutes why didn't I encounter this problem in veg stage since I didn't change the pots, I am using the same pots same soil till now....

Thanks again

Can it be the water used? I don't measure the PH on the water since I am using garden soil I thought it won't be necessary. Do you think I should start using PHed water?

you should absolutely check your waters PH... if you are in soil which you are that would be the FIRST thing I check. Soil allows a buffer to an extent. If you're feeding 8.1 ph into your soil eventually it will catch up. Rule of thumb 6-7ph in soil is fine...

I'll water it with PHed water today without nutes and post pics tomorrow

It seems I found what the problem was, I took off one male and when I broke the stem it was hollow so I guess it's calcium deficiency, other problem seems to be too much breeze, I adjust fans number, speed and direction... hope it gets better.

yes.. water just with ph water and you will see improvments. Sometimes when a leave burn it tends do get yellow a little bit thats why people sometimes find that the problem is deficiency. You have to take a look at the new grow and let her do her thing. your plants are looking good buddy!

I order a soil PH and moist tester, water PH tester and I'll start paying more attention to PH levels both in water and soil... thanks again for the help

honestly man i wouldnt panic at all, i know im new to this forum and im also a very new grower. even with a crappiest set up with no nutrients ever added using a walmart soil for tomatoes and herbs it showed those signs, i would slowly take the really bad ones off as it grew and flowered, not knowing if it was disease or what? the first leaves that it hit were the big fan leaves. this was a very short veg (hence the size) and this plant is unknown seed found in a nug :p

all gotta start somewhere ;)

pics are in order as age
