they look a speck on the dryside of the nitrogen my man
i'd give em whatever source of nitrogen you have
personally I like a good topdress of fishmeal or manure, alfalfa meal, worm castings etc
or they are rootbound...
but you are feeding chelated nutes so rootbound issues aren't as dire
but i'm not the person to ask in regards to that type of feeding
my are is all about natural type of growing, replicating nature and the composting process

im using (flora nova bloom by genreal hydroponics 4-8-7) and (Diamond Nectar premium grade humic acids by genreal hydroponics)
only 2 things im using apart from water for my flowering stage, so not sure how i would go about adding more nitrogen? im new to this

im feeding bloom and diamond nectar every 4th water or so.
just using some random brand of organic potting mix think it has a slight mix of perlite, pretty sure it didnt have any slow release stuff in it was quite plain potting mix

well, like I said its not my area of nerdery, I did see your nutrients and it's got plenty of nitrogen in it, but again it's not my area, with organics it's much different, from the pics it looks like it could use some nitrogen, but if you are feeding it according to the instructions it should be plenty, but it's all about how much you are diluting it too

havent got any word on how to get rid of the leaf hoppers yet so ive done some looking it to it, thay are called ( passion vine hopper) and thay are aparently bad becuase thay suck the plant dry and head for the greener spots making them yellow is what i have gathered so far , ive gotten something called (expra synthetic insecticde 152g)

details are This 152g can of synthetic and natural pyrethrins is suited for the Expra Automatic Dispenser. Effective against most flying and crawling insects including (but not limited to) fungus gnats (sciarid fly), whitefly, mealybug, caterpillars and passion vine hoppers.

only thing that was cheap that might be able to get rid of them should arive soon, hopefly this gets rid of the leaf hoppers on the plants

From the information i have gathered, congrats on learning to grow. I would agree that you should try auto's ,as light leaks wouldn't matter. Genetics is key to happy harvests. Power must be cheap in your country. Use sticky traps you hang, change often too.

i only just now have been able to see what ph of my nutrients. not sure if im checking right but i have my bucket of water from the tap then i mix the bloom and diamond nectar in with the water and mix it, then put one of those ph stick things in the water and wait for the color to change it matchs up with color that is 6.0 - 6.5 ph , does that sound about right ?
