A poorly Lowryder 2 - light patches - not sure why

Hi everyone,

Bit of a noob here. I've been doing a stealth closet grow of an Auto-flowering Lowryder 2 using four CFLs (23w, 100w equivalent) on 20/4.

I'm currently at the end of week five, I think - showing sex already as female (hooray!).

There's a large fan which turns on every half hour for half an hour, just to cool things down. Temperature is pretty constant at 25C (I think that's about 75F).

Recently I've noticed these light patches (see pics) on the top leaves. Each new set of leaves seems to have light patches in a different place. Sometimes at the tip - sometimes near the tip... it's very odd and I can't work out why. I suspect it's to do with the light but I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

I'm watering every three days or every two days if the soil's dry enough. Not using any nutrients - I was originally using this stuff called Baby Bio but heard that it's crap and that I might as well be spraying my plant with liquid death, lol.

Any ideas? The leaves seem okay other than that - not massively dry, and the whole plant is pretty sturdy.

Please be gentle - I'm a noob :).

Cheers,

JB

Besides the obvious yellowing which I can't explain, it looks real good for 5 weeks with 4 cfls
