Hey guys, so let me get straight into it..

Ima first time grower, plants are under a 4 bulb T5 CFL Lamp, almost a month old (strain is OG kush and the small one is Blue dream)..
as you can see in the picture the plants are burning, yellow, very dry leaves...You can also see the purple in the stems/branches. I have flushed already.
I started feeding them half strength of "Age Old Grow" which is (12-6-6) for 2 weeks then flushed then started at full. Oh, the soil, they are in fox farm ocean forest...

Everything was done correctly to my knowledge, only thing that i may need to measure (cause i am unsure, is the PPM)

I just want a clear ID of what nutrient deficiency or problem they may have...

any questions please feel free to ask...

Thanks a lot

Do you have mites? Have you looked under the leaves w a loupe?

and I would clean those dead leaves up.

I sprayed using "Safer" Organic, helps for mold and some other things like insects..etc etc...

Im really lost as to what it could be...other then nitrogen over dose and ive flushed 2 twice..

You shouldn't have to flush a plant that young, or even feed it in FFOF..if its not a bug problem then maybe just back off the food for a minute and see how it goes..

Agree with this. Pics 1-7 look fine, last couple a little worse but nothing to fret about in my opinion. Pretty hard to grow a plant to maturity without the occasional tip burn or leaf spot or something popping up on a few leaves. Just like Playboy centerfolds, the pictures you see in High Times have been retouched!

I think your plants look great and unless the discoloration gets significantly worse I'd just tone down the nutes and keep an eye on them, just my opinion.

Thank you guys for the opinions and suggestions. Also the compliments. ;) my friend told me not to worry as well, as soon as I watered them yesterday(which was a full watering) , they started standing up and saying "hi" so they looked a lot heathier.

Im going to go back to feeding it half strength of the Age Old, and ill post pictures in a couple weeks for you guys to see the plants and how theyve grown...thanks again, and any other ideas are still welcomed. Thanks again

What he said, and flushing won't do anything with an amended soil like FFOF.... You should get a basic book on growing, and read up. Mel Frank is a great place to start...

You shouldn't even have to feed it much at all in the vegetative stage with a highly amended soil like FFOF, listen to what Bublonchronic said... I mix my own soil and rarely have to feed the plant anything at all during this stage. If anything back off on the feedings.
