thx for the plus rep.yea this is my 1st grow and its easier then expected.and also fun.theu grew so quick itsn ot even funny.and my electric bill stayed the same as before i started growing.thx again
 
ok so its been five days since i switched the lights to 12/12 and changed bulbs to 2700k,8 of them to be exact.i set the timer on the lights to go off at 11 am and on at 11 pm since i work all day late hours and its the warmest time.anyway i have problems.there turning yellow and alot of leaves are dying.i drained all water out 5 days ago before the 12/12 switch.didnt add any nutes and this is whats happening.and alot of the stems turned redih pink.checked all the temp and the high when light are on is 84 to 88 steady.and when the lights are off it 67 bbeing the lowest and 72 being highest.stays between there.

what could thios be to cold? to much 2700 bulbs? need help before i loose my crop

No nutes at flower inception is not a good idea. I'd give them some grow nutes if I were you. They are hungry as hell. In fact Roseman usually keeps in on veg nutes for the first week or so of flower to support leaf health and has recently add a touch of grow nutes to his flower nutes when he does the switch to try to keep the plant as vegatatively healthy as possible. It is normal for 3-6 leaves to drop per day for the first couple of weeks when going to 12/12 without the extra grow nutes. Good and bad about adding the grow nutes. Plants are healthier but it's hard to get enough light to the lower buds with al the vegatative growth. I'm torn as to what to do myself but decided that I will keep some extra veg nutes for the first 2-3 weeks of flower to try to control the leaf drop but this is purely experimental. If I were you as a first time grower I would keep it simple and give them veg nutes for another week or two and then switch to the big bud nutes.

It's you res temps that would concern me. Got to keep in in the low to mid 70's and sixties are better if you can pull that off. Around 75 you rist some root problems. How are the roots looking?
 
ok so im in week 3 of flowerin and here are some updates one plant died.and so far i have 5 femles out of 6 plants.im guessing the 24hrs a light makes the femaqles come.who knows.but hey it worked.plants are less bushy since the switch to 12/12.here are some pics
