Looks like you need some nutrients. Yellowing is nitrogen deficiency. Dry, papery texture is potassium deficiency. The purple stems are also phosphorous deficiency so you are lacking all three macro nutes. You need a fertilizer.

I'm going with the crowd, time for a low dose of nutes. Start low and build up weekly. U will see improvements within 24 hours.

thanks for all that guys, but there is already fert mixed in with the soil. Its called blood and bone nutrients and we did the mixture right for the soil:fert ratio.

What ph water are you using? Because if you are putting in the right nutrients then the roots are not taking them up.

Either way, your lower leaves are toast. The ones that are yellow, etc.

THat seems overly complicated. I just throw some tap to a gallon jug with some 20 20 20 and bam. Sometimes I squirt it with water. Also those leaves at the top are kinda curling. Do you have a fan on that thing at ALL??? It could also be from no air movement.

yeh theres a fan on it now venting air but not on it 24 hours a day.

I also made diy co2 today so hopefully should see inprovements. Thanks for the advice about water ph mate, what ph should soil and water be?
