Roots organic soil. And Buddha Grow nutrientsYour plants look good. The yellowing on lower leaves is a nitrogen definciency. What soil are you using and what are you feeding?
I got 5 Gal bucketsHmmm. Roots is supposed to be pretty kick ass soil. How tall is your plant and how big is your pot. Might be time for a transplant. Side note, not a big fan of square pots
Ive been feeding it around half the amount it says on the bottleWhat strength are you feeding, I don't see any signs of burning.
Also, 5 gallons is big for a four week old plant. Not a bad idea to do an in between size.
ThanksI would go up to 3/4. Maybe someone with more experience with Roots will chime in
I don't think there is anything wrong with your plants. That type of yellow is most likely from the leaves nt getting enough light, the plant will naturally do that.Can anyone help me with this problem. The plants are just over 4 weeks old vegging.

I think he means that they have been vegging for 4 weeks, I don't think that plant is 4 weeks old from seed. If it is, then that's a damn fast growing plantWhat strength are you feeding, I don't see any signs of burning.

are we seeing the same things?, because to me, I don't see anything wrong with those plants.Looks like a simple N deficiency.
But Sulfur can also cause a similar look.
One thing that's caught my eye is that your leaves on your plant look a little puffy.
I usually take this as a sign of under feeding.
How often are you using plain water vs how often you use nitrients?
Rather than up the nutrient strength and risk a burn maybe you could step up your feeding.
Eg if you currently water water feed.
Then try feed water feed at your current strength.

I believe you are right. The one from the picture was taken off the bottom of the afghan skunk in the front where it easnt getting a lot of lightI don't think there is anything wrong with your plants.

roots soil has enough nutes in it for a while, and a 5 gallon will have a lot of soil for the plant to feed off. I wouldn't do anything. Personally.
Many times the best course of action, is none at all.

It is just over 4 weeks old from the day it sprouted, and I started germinating 2 days before thatI don't think there is anything wrong with your plants. That type of yellow is most likely from the leaves nt getting enough light, the plant will naturally do that.

your plants look pretty good man. I wouldn't change anything if it were me, and square pots are fine, they are the best at maximizing space, I used square pots for years, they work fine, airpots work better, but those are fine.I believe you are right.

that's a fast healthy plant, four weeks in. Looking great!It is just over 4 weeks old from the day it sprouted, and I started germinating 2 days before that
Sweet! Thanks man everything should be good then. Ill keep you updatedthat's a fast healthy plant, four weeks in. Looking great!
how many watts per sq ft are you running?
Agreed they are some healthy looking girls, hopefully girls anyway. And I realize this conversation is kind of over.I think he means that they have been vegging for 4 weeks, I don't think that plant is 4 weeks old from seed. If it is, then that's a damn fast growing plant
I agree, for the most part, I do have a light-feeding jack herer that isn't too much of a pain to grow (and MAN is she tasty)Agreed they are some healthy looking girls, hopefully girls anyway. And I realize this conversation is kind of over.
...but if that is four weeks from seed my thinking was that this is a heavy feeder. Which in my experience is a good thing. Light feeders seem to be more of a pain in the ass. All sensitive not very cooperative etc. Maybe that's just me, maybe I tend to over feed, but damn a heavy feeder means a heavy producer.
So I'm not arguing that one yellow leaf means a definciency. It probably is aligt issue now that monkey has pointed that out. Just be prepared though up like that in four weeks. You will need to increase either the EC or the frequency of feeding.
