New poster here...hi everyone!

I am a relative newbie...my first two grows went fairly okay, this is my 3rd.

I plan on upgrading my set up to a COB kit but I still haven't decided which kind. In this grow I have (L-R) Sour Diesel, Bubblegum XL, and Special Kush. I am running a pair of Platinum P300's and a GR8 Red LED. This photo was taken 1 week into flower. They were 4 1/2 weeks from seed when I flipped the lights. I have a 4" centrifugal fan pumping into the attic, and a pair of oscillating fans. Humidity is low 30's and temp is about 75 F. I am using Go Box nutes at about 1/2 strength and am feeding them on every other watering.

Since I don't really know any other growers I am trying to get a gauge on what I am doing right...or wrong.

Any advice or pointers will be greatly appreciated...

Thanks. I do notice a difference. The plant under the red is Bubblegum XL. Its leaves are bigger than the other two...much greener too. I'm not sure if its the strain or the light.

These were taken at 14 days into flower. This is my first attempt at SCROG. I also backed off on the nutes. I was giving about 40% measure of Go Box nutes at every watering, which was about every day and a half or so. I noticed a little bit of nutrient burn so I backed off to: WWWFWWWFWWWF. Per the instructions I am not correcting the PH. My tap water is consistently at 7 on the ph scale.

Some of my lower leaves have started yellowing from the outside of the leaf, some look faded...or bleached?

I don't have any pics yet as I am at work. There aren't any brown spots or curling...just a little yellowing. I am roughly 3 weeks into flower. All the upper growth looks green...just some of the lower fan leaves are yellowing.

Any ideas as to what this might be?

Sounds kinda like a N deffenicy starting. Idk though cause they do look healthy, it also could just be where those bottoms aren't able to get enough light aswell. Shoot up a few pics later when u can and tag me and I will see what I think is going on.. other then that everything is looking good bud..

I gave almost no nutes during veg as the FF Ocean Forest is pretty hot from what I am told.

Well idk, I've been using the same soil/medium and I'm constantly having to use shit loads of calmag myself, along with 3 part GH Flora line nutrients. Havent experienced anything not being able to handle it and I'm pushing over 1,000 ppms in that soil to. Just saying (:

Hmmm...I'm a noob and just assumed that less is more when it came to nutes?

any idea which of the Go Box nutes are good for N? everything I have read says nitrogen deficiancy but I want to know a little more before I add anything.
