I just got my first plant and it's about 3 or 4 weeks old. I'm growing it under 2 CFL's one is 100watt and the other is 65 watt. I water the plant every other day and feed it every other day. Anyways here's the issue, the bottom leaves are turning yellow and curling up one even has a weird burn mark look to it. But the top leaves are doing fine. My soil is fine I promise you. Also my PH level is at 7. I'm lost. Please help. Also don't judge, this is my first grow and I just need help.
First plant, having weird problems.

Pictures help.
But, I will take a shot.
Watering every 2 days. I would consider over watering and a bit excessive. You need to do the lift and weight system for watering.
Over watering can give you erroneous problems. Looking like and not related to nute def..
Good luck

I water every 3-4 days. Depending on weight.
Nute only once a week.
Depends on what kind of nutes you have selected to use.

First, pics ALWAYS help.
What are you feeding, and how much? Are you in soil or hydro?
I think you are way too young for food and water every other day, and 7.0 PH is too high, either way.
Bottom yellow and curling could be combination of the water and/ or food.View attachment 2392722View attachment 2392723

That does look overwatered to me. That's a big pot for a little plant. You want that soil to dry out Until the pot feels light so that the roots have to search a little to find moisture, then water thoroughly (until it drips out your drain holes).. Also, I would HIGHLY recommend adding another inch or so of soil ("top dressing", it's called) so that you cover up those roots.
Alright I just took it out of the soil, took the roots put em in good ph leveled water for 30 secs, mixed the soil again till it was loose, put the plant in again, and covered it loosely with soil and sprayed the soil with a light mist spray bottle. Hopefully all my problems will be solved. But I'm getting more soil tomorrow. But the reason why I have so less of soil is because I have 3 plants at the moment, so I had to spread it out.
