Yeah, looks like they're on the road to recovery although that looked more like a zinc/magnesium/iron/copper deficiency. If the problem reappears, add some molasses (1tbs/1gallon water). What nutes we're you using and at what concentration (full strength, half strength)?

I (who am not a pro) have a golden rule when it comes to changing the light cycle. I always induce flowering when I have 6-8 internodes, or the plant has reached somewhere between 20-30cm/8-12 inch for a pure indica to 50-60cm/20-24 inch for a pure sativa.

The way your plants are looking, I'd give them another 1 1/2 - 2 weeks.

Keep us posted on your plants growth and on their recovery.

yeah get your plants fully recovered before flowering, what lights do you have cause if you go too tall the lower parts will not grow good, but you could top while in veg to fix this. if you have the space and time i'd let it mature so you see preflowers

It was probably a mineral deficit caused by temp fluctuation or low/high pH, that seemed to have balanced itself right.

Keep up to good work and your plants will grow strong and healthy and show some nice lady parts later on.

i have know idea about cfls but were can you get them because ive seen them on ebay and there like 250w and need reflectors and stuff but i thought when ive seen them on grow journals there just single bulbs that can be postioned close to the plant????

My friend, that's really not good.

Temps are ideally at 68-77F during daytime (never go over 80F) and 61-68F during the night (don't go under 58F). RH should at first be pretty high (around 70-80%) and slowly drop during vegging so that at the beginning and during flowering it stays under 40-50% in order to avoid bud rot...so I guess humidity is great for when you'll be flowering, but still a bit low for now.

Such high temps and dry air can burn your plants in time. Leave some glasses of water or open bottles around the plants so humidity rises and use a stronger fan (don't point it straight at the plants).

Let us know how things worked out.

yeah go with the spiral bulb cfls they sell them at hardwear stores and yes you can get them real close to the plant,they dont put out a lot of heat:-P

One more thing, won't matter now, but still, you should know.

I took a closer look at your second picture. My final conclusion is that it was either a very severe and sudden mineral deficit, that balanced itself out or heat bleaching (aka heat burning).

Like I said, best you know for the future.

in terms of light penetration you should be good with 600. what do you mean by rh. and maybe like buggs said use some cfls dotted about, but what strain are you growing, as long as its one that doesn't respond adversely to topping i would recommend it
