-switched from 24/0 to 18/6 three days ago.
-lighting with one 26w CFL 18/6.
-temp 73-78 usually.
-humidity 35-45%
-switched from spray watering to bout half a cup to a cup pHed water every 2 days cuz I thought water droplets on leaves were burning it
-In about a half gallon pot with holes in sides and bottom (pic lower)
-50% FF happy frog 50% Pro-mix (so it shouldn't be nute burn..?)
-top-dressed a little bit of garden lime about a week ago
-No nutes have been added yet. ( Is it time for nutes to be added??)

Seems to not be getting better at all after I bought pH meter 3 days ago
and have been making sure it has a pH of 6.3-6.6 every watering

I have maxicrop liquid seaweed, jamaican bat guano and earthworm castings ready for when it gets bigger.
Is it time to start adding 1/4 strength nutes of Nitrogen ??
Does it look like nitrogen deficiency ??

Just give her time to adapt.. it wont happen over night.. in two weeks the LAST thing on your mind will be those old leaves..

If you know your PH is on, just LEAVE HER BE.. You adjusted her lighting schedule to a new one, you started watering differently.. she doesn't know what you are going to do next.. just let her be and adapt. She'll be fine if you do. Don't even look at her if it isn't time.. just back off and let her be a plant.

Also... no.. nutes.. not for some time.. not at all.. zip..



That's just my take, take it or leave it.. :)

The problem is heat/light stress. It's not got the airflow needed to handle that cfl right there. So pick raising the light or adding a fan :)

333maxwell has a great take on this. And I agree whole hardedly. you have been foliar watering, so not much of the "starter" organic nutes found in the soil has made its way into her cardio system, I.E. root up-take. So now, just let the little thing settle in, and start feeding. "All" The "nutes" this little thing will be needing, for quite some time,,, is right in the soil. Later your choices in organics sound like a great place to begin. Look into cold brewing tea from these components. A little unsulphered mollassas, An Air pump and a five gallon pickle bucket will accomplish this. It's a great way to grow, and many of us do it, because certain srains display certain charms when grown in just organic!!!! This is "key" for truelly remarkable complex exagerated flavours. I would recomend it a s a experiment for any grower wanting to improve on flavour and nose appeal.
