Yet another plant issue. Yellow/orange spots and nute burn?

[cirrus12]

Ok so I went in and checked on my plants alittle while ago and...well...I'll let the pics speak for me.

They're 4-5 weeks into vegging on an 18/6 cycle. They each have 2 23 watt cfls each. They get a mix of half strength nutes (big bloom, grow big, and tiger bloom) and water, both of which have had their ph adjusted to about 6.5.

Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong this time?

Why tiger bloom so early? Your ppm's at even half strength of all three have to be in the 1000's. Do you have a tds meter? Other than a few weird ridges the plants look phenominal. Might be simply a little tiny nutrient burn.

so early? I was just going by the feeding schedule that FoxFarm made, except I'm only using half strength.

also keep in mind that the soil may contain a decent amount of nutes as well. Looks like nute burn to me too.

another thing to keep in mind is that u dont want your lights to be like less then a half inch away from your plants cuz they will burn the tips

I was thinking of switching soil. I've been looking at FoxFarm Ocean Forrest. Anyone recomend anything else?

If you do use ocean forest, I'd recommend not using any nutrients for the first week or two after you transplant. The soil is loaded with nutrients. Also if you're going to transplant now would be the time, you're getting close to flowering I imagine.

I was going to let them veg for 2 months. That gives them about 3ish weeks of vegging. Plus, I wouldn't transplant PC or Esmerelda. The Ocean Forest would be for everything new once I bouught it, i.e. new seedlings and clones.

Gotcha, ocean forest is a great line but there seriously is a good deal of food in there. I went by 1/2 strength nutrients on the fox farm recommended feeding schedule, nearly killed my plant. Check out my first journal.

Keep it up bro.

Consider that my plants on half strength now and theres some burning, it wont be a terribly big switch for me.
