hey all, just a little concerned about a few of my plants. They are all about 2 weeks old and just inside for a short veg before going outside for my first guerilla grow. 11 plants on the go. 10 easy sativas and a freebie seed which is a red purps. Im afraid the only info i can give is that im using cheap potting soil that gave no nute info and im using un-ph'ed water at the moment until i get my ph tester. And they are under a 400w mh lamp thats 2 to 3 foot above them. so heres some pic's

a few of the ES did this which i think may be due to the light being too strong but the 400w is my only option

A few of the baby leafs are dying off already. i know this happens but this early?

And finally a few of the tips got burned and are dying off. I think think this is due to the soil being too hot. as i said there is no nute info on the soil but im sure there are nutes in it

overall they seem to be doing well enough for 2 weeks old. planting out in another 2 weeks.

Well from your pics the new growth looks fine so id say it just got a lil nute burn. Just keep an eye out if it starts affecting the new growth. Its not very good to grow in soil you have no clue whats in it on top of using un ph'd water.

Just make sure you dont over water them with that soil not having perlite and things alike no telling how much moisture it holds.
