why are all my new plants doin this? LOTS OF PICS

[bnoc450]

im currently vegging under 2 45watt 4100k cfls and 2 10watt 6500k cfls. temp is at 80 constantly and lights are on 24 hours. I ha dpreviously fucked up my plants so i cut the tops off and new growth started eveyrwhere. But the problem still exists here are some pics

I watered this one and right after it drooped like this i then didnt water it for 5 days and it hasent gotten an better:

New growth on an old plant, notice the tips turning brown:

My best plant, growing from an old plant the leafs are turning brown really bad:

and my new seedling, look at those tips!

Did you feed them nutes?

Do you ever let the soil get dry?

What type of soil?

How much perlite to soil ratio?

How far from lights?

Initially I want to say over-watering and nute burn.

Without waiting for your huge pics to fully load (on dial-up) you realize overwatering results in your symptoms, right?
From the mis-shapen growth, I'm guessing it could also be pH related. Do you have any idea what the water you're using is pH-wise?

I'd make sure I was watering properly before worrying about pH.

over watering would be my best bet.....did u feed them yet? if u havent keeeep waiting...a couple splashes of water when u can stick ur finger around in the soil...

Did you feed them nutes? No

Do you ever let the soil get dry? Always, i water every 3-5 days

What type of soil? Pro-mix

How much perlite to soil ratio?

How far from lights? 3 inches

Initially I want to say over-watering and nute burn.

i would say move your lights to 6-7 inches away from plant

ill try that, thx every 1 for replies. any 1 else got any input on this?

 

[PIMPLORD]

lol im just starting to plant i still germinating my first seeds but i heard light should be around 6-8 inches from plant depending on watts and volts

 

[PIMPLORD]

or i mean it says 20 inches but no closer then 14 but i think thats for LED lights but i donno

 

[bnoc450]

or i mean it says 20 inches but no closer then 14 but i think thats for LED lights but i donno

that would be for HID lighting

 

[PIMPLORD]

ya i donno im new i hasvent even made a plant yet but i heard 20 inches and 14 no closer but i donno what type of light

 

[peedy89]

the only thing i could think of could be the soil.

 

[saynotothebs]

do the containers have holes in them for drainage??

 

[Johnnyweedseed]

How often are you handling the plants?
What fertilizers are you using and how much?

yes

i handle the plants, as in move them around only to water. i JUST used 20-20-20 nutes yesturday on my 3 old plants seeing as i had them for about a month. i used half strength and they perked up back to life like the first one in my pic when straight up and there all looking healthy except the brown spots are still there...maybe they will go away?

the brown spots are permenant. If the plants are looking healthier, the new leaves shouldn't develope the dead areas.

If on the new growth, there are still brown spots, you might have a disease. Quarantine the sick ones from the healthy ones and clean the area.
