First Time, 1 Month into Veg. Few ?'s

[brandino427]

This is my first time grow. I got some AK-48 fem seeds from Nirvana. I am only doing 1 plant in my closet grown in Fox Farm Ocean Forest w/ Fox Farm Grow Big under a 6400k 125w CFL (5 gal pot). For the first 3 weeks i gave it no nutes and it was doing great. I started giving it the nutes at 1 tsp/gal every watering and it started doing even better (week 3-4). I am now a couple days into week 4 and i have noticed yellowing of the leave tips on the younger leaves, and slightly stunted growth. Also the older lower leaves have yellowing of veins and are slightly wilted. The plant still looks pretty nice overall. I was just wondering exactly what these small problems could be so i can avoid them. Also i was wondering about how much water i should give it each watering.

could be nut burning or not giving it the right amount of N

Yellow tips useually mean nute burn

and even though your feeding half the recommened nutes you should feed every other watering.

Thanks for the posts, What do you guys recommend. Flush? Less nutes? change nute schedule?

To answer your question john... the Fox Farm Grow Big is 6-4-4, and i was planning on using fox farm tiger bloom for flowering which is 2-8-4 possibly in conjuction with Big Bloom which is .01-.3-.7

Ok so heres an update. I checked back with my baby this morning and i dont really think the growth is stunted. But... I do notice a little bit more yellowing of the leave tips. I fed her 500ml of clean water today (Is that enough for a 5 gal pot?)
