Having problems self diagnosing

This is my second grow with one good seed and one bag seed. Its day 2 of flowering. I have tried to read and self diagnose this problem but I want to make sure I dont do anything wrong to hurt the plants. So im asking for someones advice whos a little more experienced than me. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. The new growth looks pretty healthy, the bigger leaves have some brown spots on them and the lower leaves are turning pale and have brown tips. Also im seeing some red stems only in the middle of the plant and some white spots. I know it is alot but please help me! :lol:bongsmilie

Well, I will be happy to do what I can but I gotta tell you, the first thing that went through my mind is "thats some fucked up genetics right there"
I could be wrong but what made me think that was the wrinkle/cabbage look to the leaf and the lack of deeper veins.

I can tell you the red in the stem is a sign of stress, could be low temps.
Looks like the plant is pulling nutrients from the lower leaf because for some reason its not getting it from the soil. May be a pH issue, maybe just not there.

The texture of the leaf makes me think it is having trouble transpiring, I see the fan, do you have fresh air intake?
Whats the pH and the soil mix. Are you feeding nutrients or just watering?
 
Yeah, one of the plants has been looking weird since sprouting, never seen anything like it..i call it the retarted one haha. And yeah im using CFLs so i just put a warmer light in there to keep the temps up. I will check the PH level, i've been using tap water so that might be the problem. I should have fresh air, i keep the closet open, and the plants arent totally inclosed. I planted them in MG organic soil and used MG nutes once before reading not to so not really adding nutes just letting it do its thing. Does the MG organic have nutes in it? and if not what nutes do you recommend for flowering and doctor it to health :p
 
Yes, Miracle grow organic has nutrients in it that are both quick and slow release nutrients. Slow release means when you water the soil releases more. I wouldn't use any more nutes then that, its pretty hot as it is. These are primarily "grow" nutrients though. They say the nutes last for up to 3 months. If I were you I would let the tap water set over night, ph it to 6.5 and flush with it. Then get some bigger pots and some bat guano. Mix 1/10 guano in some backyard soil then make a 50/50 mix with the left over MG. Put that at the bottom of the new pot. Transplant and stay on water ph at 6.5

Okay ill try that tomorrow when they need to be watered. Do you have any other recommendations? I'm not sure I know where to get guano
 
It doesnt have to be quano, you just want the bottom layer where the roots are headed to have a higher phosphorus content. that's the P in NPK
I would google plant nursery and my city or zip, OSH most bigbox stores with a garden center they got it.

If nothing is around you you could always get it online. AMAZON

If they are ready to water tomorrow wait another day. you want the soil pretty dry but not where the plants drooping.
