Help !!!! Please save the blue cheese for the love of the weed


HI GUYS FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO DONT ALREADY KNOW ME
im growing in a grow tent under cfl lighting 250w @ present but will be doubled when the new cfl arrives also put in some smaller cfls around the side of the tent in a warm white ?????
as recommended by one of our fellow thc talk members
got a 6" fan running at the top of the tent for the whole light cycle
i am growing in bio bizz all mix soil
using bio grow & bio bloom nutrients (though not yet)

i am growing blue cheese fems (apparently barnys farm ?)

if you need any more info please ask i will respond asap

my plants have now been under the light for 21 days now and up till a few days ago all seemed well the plants were growing well & looked really healthy(and even got the thumbs up from peeps on here)
but ive just looked in today and the yellowing has got a little worse but ive noticed a brown spot in one of the leaves and theres some slight shriveling on the ends of the leaves other than that they still look ok to my un experienced eye ...they are due a water tommorow but the soil is still quite damp


please see pics below to try help diagnosis











THANKS IN ADVANCE PEEPS FOR ANY INFO & ADVICE YOU GOT FOR ME THIS IS MY FIRST GROW SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME MY GIRLS ARE NOT GOING TO DIE ???

I'm not a soil grower, so I have no real advice for you, but your light distance is fine, its surely not that. It looks to me more like nutrient burn, aka too much juice for a small plant. But, the reason I post is to congratulate you on having a HELP thread with a LOT of photos!! Some people post no photos at all, its annoying. :)

They look different to what happend to mine, the fan leaves started to go really yellow then burn at the tips, I think it was my fault, being a newbie, I left them too long in pots too small.
Are you feeding yours? Looks like your using the same soil (allmix) as me, mine has a ph6.6 ec2.4 standard, so i didnt feed mine for the 1st couple of weeks, just ph6.6 water was all i needed.
Im still on my 1st grow, with a hell of a lot to learn, hopefully i can learn something from this.

right peeps really sorry for the lack of updates on this thread ive been away for a few days
its been a week now since i originally posted this thread and i ve got some new pics for you all to have a look at and see what you think because to be honest im really not sure how there going
all i can say is there not dead yet and the yellowing seems to have stopped and i havent really had any new problems with the tips of any other leaves ....
growth did seem a bit stunted for a few days but as of yesterday i spotted some exiting and healthy new development on a couple of the plants

i havent really made any changes either other than lifting the lights up a few inchs cos i swear the big red cfl was burning the tips of the suffering leaves ,also a friend of mine came down to see me and he been growing good quality bud for about 22 years (hes well old school)lol .....and when he had a look he advised me to snip of the very badly damaged leaves that clearly had no chance of coming back to life .....he said basically while the leaf is still attached to the plant that it will be still trying to repair an heal the damaged leaf taking up most of the plants energy with no good ending(i think this could be the possible reason around the stunted growth to ???)
so i removed all the dead leaves from the plant and it seems to have benefitted them at the moment !!!
also i did managed to give the plants a good flushing once the soil dried out so hopefully got rid of most of them nutrients i gave it ???? but i was wondering if it would be good to flush them again next time they need watering ????

this is now three weeks under the light for the plants and 26 days into the operation i was kinda hoping to start my flowering stage after they have vegged for 5 weeks ?????? what do you guys think ??? you rekon i shouds wait an veg a little longer ????

please have a look at the latest pics of my plants below and give me your oppinion on them because all i know after the nute burn incident is that there not dead yet ...what do you think ????

















one last thing guys i been haveing a bit of a problem getting the humidity down in the grow tent its rolling on 90 most of the time ....any ideas how i can get the humidity down please
