First time grower needs help with some young ones

Growing in a 4x4 tent with a 4 foot 4 bulb T5 and a 600 watt LED on the the vegetation setting. Lights are 24in above plants.

Feeding them RO water PH 5.8 with Flora bloom a cal mag added. Running 1/4 strength. I water them every day around 1/2 gallon in between all six plants.

I did have the box fan turned on blowing air out of the tent. Could that have caused wind burn on the leaves?

The biggest one that has 2 dying leaves is a blue dream.

The more slender taller one in the picture that has just one tip that is dying is Afghan cow. [IMG]https://www.420magazine.com/mobile-gallery/420-magazine-mobile353097633.jpg

Hi CG!

Looks like a little nute burn on early growth. They are moving out of seedling stage and into active veg growth, so shouldn't be a problem from now on. May be that lower leaves came in contact with coco or water and absorbed extra nutes causing burn.

Thank you so much for your advice that makes sense.

Is running only Flora Bloom, Cal Mag and seaweed extract from start to finish a good idea?
It seems like my ppm's are too low with only running these nutes.

Thanks again for your advice.

You may be watering too much, daily with such small plants, is not giving the roots time to began filling the pots.
May want to go by weight of the pots, let them get a little lite before you water. I know it's hard to overwater coco, but those are very small plants.
IMHO!'

I had some of the same issues. Water them less. Jus give enough to have to water 24 hours later. Give time for the roots to reach for food. Also Great White is the bomb really helps in coco for nutrient uptake. Things looking good jus cut back on the amount of water your giving them. I will be watching and good luck. Have any questions just ask. Also come visit my journal we both are doing LED and coco/perlite mix. I try to keep it simple since its my first grow. After I learn the process am gonna step things up!! Ur doing great keep it up!!

Alright hear some updated pictures.
No I have leaves dying on all my plants and it's starting at the bottom. Is this from over watering?

I'm growing in coco and water every day, (from my research you should treat coco as hydro)5gallons divided by three plants approximately 10% run off and no problems so far, could I ask what are your feed ppm reading?

I water my coco daily too. Just need to use less water when doing it. A few cups daily as opposed to drenching it every few days works well. Keeps them fed but not soggy.

Does not look like over watering leaves look like they are pointing to the light. Are you staying on top of PH? And if so what are your EC or PPM amount? Good thing is new growth looks good! Or did the bottom of the plant look lush and whatever is spreading up the plant? Don't look like a temp or humidity issue. I believe either ph not right and some kind of lock out or not getting enough nutes. I am also growing in coco. I geed everyday but a light feed so they are ready for another one with in 24 hours. Very hard to over water in coco but don't want medium to stay saturated cause it will slow root growth which will then slow plant growth. Hope you figure it out and I will b checking in to make sure u get a handle on things. If there is anything I can help u with shoot a question in my journal or ask up here m subbed in!! Good luck!!

U know what look at the beginning of my journal had the same issue u had with lower growth. Not enough nitrogen as soon as I gave them a boost fixed problem real fast. Check it out and see if it looks the same as your plants!!

Thanks for the info. My ppm is running around 600. And as for the growth it starts out great but seems to be moving up the plant from the bottom. I'm thinking it's a lock out or salt build up from running to much nutes? Should I flush with just R.O water ph'ed around 5.7?

It really looks the same but mine is ×100 worse. What did you add to give more nitrogen?
I'm running floranova bloom. And cal mag +

Great white for nute uptake. GH rapid start. Helped a lot!!

Hey everyone looks like it was a nitrogen deficiency.
Since I'm only running the Flora Nova bloom and not running the Grow. I looked up the Lucas formula and they seem to be doing a lot better.

Thanks everyone for the advice and help. Here's a few pictures.

And I'm also looking into starting a journal just can't remember the recommended layout.

I have the same one, bought it about 2 months ago. I like it, poles could be a bit more legit at the connection points but it's pretty nice. Any complaints on it so far?

Nope no complaints works good for the 120 I spent on it. Small light leaks but nothing to crazy. Zippers seem to be strong. Wasn't the funnest to set up by myself in a small space.

Hell no. I have 8 ft ceilings and a ceiling fan in the small room. Nearly took all I had to get it set up and in place alone. Agreed on the zippers.
