Could be almost anything to be honest, need a bit more information. What type medium are you using? What do you feed and how often? what kind of containers are they in? Have you done any transplanting recently? Could be so many factors to be honest. Anyway you can upload a pic or two?

Like Vaporz said, there are loads of thinks it could be, can you post a photo (under natural light or fluorescent light, not hps or led) so we can see it, then we can try to help a bit more

I use Biobizz and i feed the every 2-3 days

I transplanting to this container in the 2nd week, and this is not the grow room , i move it just for the photo

For a start m8 I looks like u got nute burn, see the tips of your leaves are burnt, yellow and curling, when it's dry give it a good watering with just ph'd water, then next time you add your biobizz, drop the amount down a bit, what is the recommended dose on the bottle and what are u giving it? Do u give the nutes every time you water?

 

[Secretos Nikos]

I use the half of the dose for biobizz, i use bio grow, bio bloom, top max and i use them after the 3rd week

Do you think that i must give 24 hour dark???

nice looking plant to be honest, beside a couple light nute burn tips that are not really even worth mentioning it looks pretty healthy looking over-all. Are you certain it is an auto-flower? maybe seed mix-up?? do you have a pic of other auto that is doing better? Like I said, the plant looks healthy as a whole...BUT...if it is indeed an autoflower, I would think the pre-flowers/flowers would be more "advanced" at this point in time..so having said that..it does NOT look well for an auto-flower at this stage of the game......BUT again...if it IS a photoperiod, then it looks right about what you would expect...except the light cycle being 18/6...thats what throws it off being a photo I think

I have heard different opinions on the 24 hour dark. I think you'll be fine without it.

 

[Doo-flop]

no don't give it 24h dark, just try it with 1/4 strength nutes every other watering and see how it goes on that, don't mess with its light schedule. If the other plant is happy with your feeding schedule, don't change that one, but if that has any yellow on the leaf tips cut that back a bit too. Too much nutrients will stunt the plant and stop it growing for a bit, so I would think this is the problem m8

 

[vaporz]

I would not give it a 24 hour dark period, you could probably do a flush and see how that does

Looking healthy

as for the white widow it is automatic,, but i dont know what to do

 

[HydoDan]

The white widow seed may have been mislabeled.. It isn't growing like an auto.. you may have to
finish your snow rider.. then go to 12/12 for the white widow to finish...

 

[Doo-flop]

Is the white widow still producing new growth ?

 

[Secretos Nikos]

no

 

[Doo-flop]

Ok, I wouldn't of thought it was a photoperiod then or it would still be veging, try cutting the nutes down and just give ph'd water next watering like I said earlier. the nute burn is all I can see wrong with it, so sort that problem and see what happens
