Slight curling of tips and slight yellowing

My plants 1 month into veg, and 1 of them has some slight yellowing of the tips and slight curling of the tips. I don't think it's too much of a concern right now, but I figure I would address the issue before it gets too bad. Any suggestions would help.

I have 1 100W CFL and 1 70W HPS on a 16/8 Cycle, and I water with rain water every morning, and spray the leaves with rain water every morning.








I can post more pics, perhaps better pics if you have any suggestions.


Thanks in advance!

rain water what a treat!

stick your finger in the soil if it's wet or very damp don't water the plants, make sure you have good drainage


btw, beaks <> don't seem to work in this forum, i think they use brackets [] instead for image tags

ahh, there they are, wow they look healthy from the photos

I forgot to mention that, no, I don't water if I notice moisture in the soil. Thanks for your quick reply and tip on the forum help! I appreciate it!

have you checked the ph of your rain water?
Last I checked it was at 6.2, but I'll check again. It's been about a week or so.

Also, do you think I have enough light for the long run? I have another 100W CFL bulb and a 150W HPS bulb but no ballast's for either. If necessary, I will hook those up. Even though I know as a general rule the more light the better, always.

Thanks!

Right now I wouldn't just cause it's extra work. If you think it's not a big deal hooking em up and keeping the temp down then go for it. You could always hook them up and see if the extra light stops the yellowing. When you put Her;-) on 12/12, then I would but until then it's up to you.
