Hey guys,

First time grower, I'm growing 2 plants (bag seeds from great bud), germinated them and planted them in small containers. After their 2nd week, i transplanted them to bigger pots with the same soil type to avoid any possible shock. I'm growing indoors with 3 swirly fluorescent lights on 24 hrs and a fan blowing 24 hrs

I'm using 1/2 the dosage given on fish nutrient of 14-10-10 and i water (spray) them daily as the soil gets dry quickly.

Now it's their third week exactly, they both are growing fast but however, one is growing faster and bigger where the second plant is getting yellow spots that started in the center and are moving outwards towards the leafs edges.

I can't afford loosing the plant, i need to cure it if there was anything wrong with it.

Back off on the nutes and flush her with water and see how she does in a couple of days. Start nutes at 1/4 strength and slowly work up from there.

Yeah, may be too much nutes for the youngn.. Flush and slowly introduce them again... And unless thats an autoflower, I would let them breathe once in a while (darkness)... Atleast 4 hours a day.

It's just weird because i was giving both plants the exact same nutes and watering, but perhaps one is stronger than the other!! I will stop the nutes for a couple of days but anyways, how do i flush the plant without over watering it?

oh and thanks for the help ! I really appreciate it, how would the 4 hrs of darkness a day help the plant i would like to know plz :) cuz i read in several links that 18 hrs to 24 hrs of light has the same effect on a plant!?

The yellow is moving outwards, towards the edges of the leafs, and the center is getting back to green.. Is this a good sign of recovery? Or is it getting worse?

Please help!

Plants don't need nutrients until 3-4 weeks.
Thanks PurpleKrunchie, i've cut down on the nutes for 5 days now, and the yellow is moving outwards towards the edges and tips of leafs, leaving the center and the new leafs green. Is this a good sign ? How is my baby doing now?

Hey guys,

here are some photos i took of the plant today, it still got yellow spots on the edges of the top leafs and more than that on the lower ones.. But i wonder if it's actually getting better or should i be expecting a full turn to green recovery? Also my cotyledons are yellowing and drying out!! Is that good ?? But what is driving me insane is the fact that the plant is much smaller than any other plant i've seen online of the same age. 28 DAYS SINCE GERMINATION!
plz help anyone!!
