please help. growing in soil in a tent with extraction and one fan with a 300w light about 600mm away from canopy, I fertilised them very early on, maybe that has damaged them. also I have sprayed them with neem oil twice could that be something to do with it, I haven’t checked ph as I don’t have a pen yet
I think you fertilized to early and sprayed neem to early also. I wouldn’t spray neem until they are healthy and wouldn’t feed soil until you see signs of deficiency’s starting. Let them baby’s settle in. Plain water for a minute. (Maybe a soil drench for pest). If you got pest already you may have to figure how you acquired them. Maybe look up info on good soils for weed to use also. Im sure there is somebody with better advice but I’d start there

Also those yellow leaves look like you overwatered multiple times. Let it dry out some more between watering. The purpling screams led is to close. ( I’m going through same thing with lights currently ).

Are they Autoflowers?

Clones yes?

If your lights really 300w then light stress stopping them feed properly , possible root problems too if they've been stressed for a while.

You need to provide a as much info as possible.
But I'd raise or dim your light

Because my last set of plants had spider mites and they ended up getting on these new clones so I tried to get rid of them

Before I put my 2 ¢ - Give us your grow info.

Strain
lights
medium
nutes
water / ph
temps / rh
etc.

We need much more info.
Like what you “ fertilized “ with ….

strain is unknown but I think itis mainly sativa dominant
Growing medium is terrazilla
And the fertiliser was growzilla part a and b
  • NPK: 28-5-30
  • 28% Nitrogen
  • 5% Phosphate
  • 30% Potassium
My temp is around 22-26°c and humidity fluctuates about 55-65%

That's the issue. Nutes are way too strong for the little babies.

It looks like too much nitrogen, I had the same thing happen a few months back, I repotted cause it happened in like 2-3 days, if yours has been in its pot for weeks I would say super low feedings like 200ppm or less for a while and it will come back. Next time get some soil mix for seedlings and clones or an organic mix with low nitrogen, then top dress after a couple weeks. I’m not a big soil guy though, I only know cause I almost killed my last soil plant.

Try to keep your RH as close to the 65% as possible as well

Did you look up on here watering techniques by chance? I think you will find it helpful. When my plants are small and I’m not transplanting up I do just a little water at a time and work my way up. If you give them more then they need all the time you will be asking for other problems. I could explain it but I know there is some really good info on here you can search. I’ve been guilty of not watering right and suffered the consequences. Good luck
