most defficiancies start at the bottom and work ther way up or on the outside edges of leaves and work ther way in feed em with a good complete fertilizer next watering and wait to see if it progresses it prolly will be fine dnt wrry to much they are not dieing just useing what you have guven them and i think they need real veg nutes now

What are you using for soil? I think you're feeding too soon. You won't need nutes for about a month with off the shelf soil. The one looks a bit nute burnt. How often do you water? Seedlings need more water than an established plant. I water about every 4 or 5 days, and I feed sparingly. The single biggest enemy of a successful grow is an "over-attentive" grower. But then, I have only 2 grows to draw from, there are other, way more experienced, folks out there.
Remember, these fuckers have been doing just fine without our help for centuries. Growing pot isn't so much a "doing" thing, it's more of a "along for the ride" thing. All you can do is sit back and watch em grow, feeding and watering when necessary. Not every little quirk is a problem that needs to be fixed. If you do your job as grower right, there is very little thats MORE rewarding than smokin' your own bud thats better than it's origins.

The node is where there is a branch coming off the main stalk, at the end is usually the fan leaves or tops depending on how you are growing, or topping. It's your own call to do any trimming or pruning. I usually take off the ones that are too big, or ones on the bottom that are dying. One other way is to tie down the big fan leaves so they allow more light to get through and also still serve the purpose of being there.

The grwfaqs have all kinds of methods for training and pruning, check it out it's very helpfull!!

I ain't to be a dick, but quit thinking for the plant!!! Believe me, it knows whats best for it. At this stage in the game, you're trying to get as much vegetative growth as you can. At about 3 weeks or so, the plant will need a bit of nutes. Start out at no more than 1/2 strength, preferably 1/4 strength.

You should have seen me during my first grow. I panicked at every little brown or yellow spot, started to try and "cure" things that were fine to begin with. Not every thing is a problem. They go thru some strange changes (strange to me anyway) and seem to be OK afterward.
