Yikes! Give those girls some nitrogen! An iron supplement wouldn't hurt, either. Since you're in soil, you could use cal-mag. My personal preference is calcium nitrate without the water, but that's not always so easy to source.

Thanks man. Appreciate the input. Is it due to leaf color how you can tell it needs nitrogen. That's not under the light I had your move it for a pic. The soil I have is 26-8-14. More nitrogen?
Maybe your soil is depleted of nitrogen or something but that leaf color is not good. They're supposed to be green, not yellow!

they are pretty green man I don't know what you are saying must be the lighting. They are not yellow though. Might be the pic
Could be the light. You need good white light or sunlight to read leaves for deficiencies.

Compare those two pics. Now, you tell me why I think the first one looks nitrogen deficient.

are you using 2700k CFLs? these are the 6500k CFL lights I bought. I started with the 2700k because that's all I had when they were seedlings but since I bought these new light bulbs they are doing fantastic
Hey thx guys...sorry for the wait on update. ya this my first grow and I started with 2700k so pics looked yellow. I now use 6400k cfls (1-125watt 6- 23 watt and 2-32 watt) seems to be going good. Here are the clones....straight to dirt. 20150712_104554.jpg OK20150717_192556.jpg Here is updated photos. I did some trimming on this one i didnt like the way she was growing... I know everyone says don't do it but I think she looks a lot better. Im here to learn, the only way is to do that is, try it. That first guy told me give them nitrogen which was a mistake. I fed nitrogen once and had nute burn. Dont listen to everyone and kill your plants with nutes. I built my grow box and got a 600 watt hps yesterday for $65. 20150718_204859.jpg here is second plant only i only cut one off of her... I have pics of 8 week veg I'll post all pics here soon guys20150718_204935.jpg
