From what I can tell from deficiency chart it looks like sulfur def but idk why never had issues before with anything… these are new from seed Runtz and Gorilla Zkittles … been four weeks in the big pots 24/7 , wee doing great had one with 9 point leaf thought looking good then first tops started twisting now new growth looks yellowish and thin. Only fed once lightly with fox farms grow big and big bloom… maybe need more before I start to flower idk? They had been under t5 and just put under led yesterday but the twisting started way before. Any help would be appreciated….thank544A5715-DED2-4ED8-B75B-12452026B6A1.jpeg664D9CC0-EABC-42F1-AEDB-342FB8DCEC97.jpeg

Where is the rest of the plants?

leaf twisting is typically a ph issue. i dont see any deficiencies

So really nothing is getting better.. I thought let dry out but more I read I thought bad ph so today I flushed one with ph 7 water… checked runoff… was 5.1!! So put last gallon in ph to 7.5 and added 1/4 cup baking soda to top 6 inches..( mixed it around) now I guess let dry out and start light feed? Any thoughts… they started canoeing bad today that why I decided to flush. Any input would be great… got temp at70, humidity 53, fan blowing gently… all from seed put in those pots April 1, so been vegging 4 weeks.

Aye that won't work, you need something to pull oxygen into the grow room. get your extractor on. As for sorting pH in soil, being a water baby I can't help you there bud.

Seriously dude, get your environment sorted and the rest is gravy.

Man, I remember my first grow I thought I could get by without an extractor.... hell I even thought I'd get by without a carbon filter! Baaaaaaad idea :lol:

baking soda is high in sodium as well to ph the medium calcium carbonate is much better and you should do that before planting in the medium, also runoff ph doesnt mean anything afaik, it doesnt mean anything in organic soil at least. i dont know what you’re growing in and in what style but its better to do a slurry test to determine the medium ph.

Thanks I’ll try that… never had this problem before always use same dirt from local greenhouse. Going to put some Dolomite lime on top too …. First I’ll do slurry test though….. ty
