Can someone give me some advice.

I planted these about 2 weeks ago and they aren't really growing that much.

I think the problem is the fert i used after about one week.

It is called root & grow
4-10-3

I only added about 4 tsp to the 1 gal water chamber

Also i am using a 600w hps light. The light is 4ftish above the plant.

Anything you guys ?

Basically they have not been growing for a few days and the yellow in the middle of the leaves is just scaring me.

Well, you might've over fertilized, or you're lighting isn't too good.

Put them under a couple cfl's and rinse them real good with a flush, I can't give that good of advice with so little info. HPS are best for bloom, you can get a much better spectrum from flourescents.

Well what info do you need ?

 

[MrHowardMarks]

Didn' see the thumbs, definately flush them.

You should add nutes till the 4th node.

Looks like you are doing a hydro grow which is real easy to over fert early on, but I don't believe that is your total issue. The fert you used has the wrong npk ratios for young vegging plants (your fert is a bloom or flower npk) and it doesn't look like it is made for hydro or soiless grows. At this point you need an npk ratio that has a higher nitrogen content. Get yourself some food that is specific for hydro because it will have everything you plants need to live and thrive. Good luck

Yeah, to edit my last post you shouldn't add nutes until they have 4-5 nodes.

try using a clf light until they get strong... the hps might be too much right now

You are right especially in a soil grow.

I think I am going to sell this light today and get some high output fluorescent lights. But i did flush my plants today and the PH is at 6. So at least my PH dropped and they look to be getting strong in just a few hours. 2 of the roots started leaning yesterday but now they are getting better.
