New leaves appear yellowish

i would like to start by saying im newr to this so vets. correct me if im wrong but the new born leaf usually have a lighter color untill they grow a bit. but i do know 5.8 - 6.5 is ok for soil grow but is a little high for hydro, your looking to stablize at about 5.5 PH level in your system. hope that will help

5.8 is good for hydro to low for soil,my plants were doing the same thing but my plants were a week into 12-12 when they did it and my problem was in my nute mix all is well now,being that your plants are young I would check my ph and a 1/4 strenth nute mix if in hydro,I use gh 3 part nutes so its easy to balance you nutes peace and grow on

too soon for nutes flush with ph'd water and let it air dry for a little while then continue to water with ph'd water for another week then add a little nutes.

Huh? Hes running a hydro setup, if he doesn't use nutes, where is the plant getting its food from?

Ethabhae: what nutes are you using? PPM? Your PH looks to be good, your plant just looks hungry.

my temperature is sometimes 23 sometimes 31C
my ph changes very fast, why is this happening :S
now is my systems ph 7.0, but it was 5.5 :S
nutes (10 8 6) - 2.5 ml to 1 gal.
i think my problem is about ph ?

plants have enough energy naturally to usually last 2-3weeks on just straight ph'd water.

ph usually changes when temp goes up and down for sure need to get it stablized(water temp 65-70degrees and ph5.5-6.5). water smell clean? what kind of system you using? if you keep feeding nutes they will die

water temp too high and nutes too soon. like i said earlier they dont need nutes for 2-3 weeks that if you dont stunt them. i would say they need to be 3-4in tall and have 3-4nodes
