first time grow!

How close are your lights to the leaves? I would also measure the temperature at the leaves (IR thermometers are great for measuring the temp of the leaves, too). What size pots are you using, and what type of soil are they in? How often are you watering and how much are you putting into each pot? Also, what are you feeding them and how often/how much?

Hey thanks for replying man, don’t have tape measure on me right now but I’d say light is probably 20 inches or so from top of plant. Have a few others going as well and they seem to be doing good. Been trying to get my temp situation under control so I’m still trying to find the sweet spot with that. They are in 6” planter pots from Walmart. Working with limited space here and trying to get the best of my light before I buy an actually light. Planted them in fox farms happy frog soil and have added no nutrients yet whatsoever. I did over water it this past weekend just prior to transplant so that’s probably why she looks like she’s over watered. Appreciate your help man. Any suggestions?

2 and a half weeks into flower

20" shouldn't be an issue. I don't believe that Fox Farms Happy Frog is anywhere as hot as Ocean Forest and, if you haven't fed anything yet, then I can't see any toxicity being an issue. What is your temp and humidity been at? The only other thing I can think of is maybe wind damage? You don't have fans flowing directly at the plants, do you?

My temp has been fluctuating due to me trying to get down my venting/exhaust situation. Cannot give you an accurate reading of the temp while lights are on but when they are off it’s around 70. Have it in my closet pulling air from my room. I installed two 6 inch fans I found at dollar general, one blowing air in through side of the box and the other blowing across the light to help cool it. I cut some vent holes in the top of the box so it can push air out. No fans blowing directly on the plant but I did have it outside while transplanting this weekend. Had it beside ac unit and wind was pretty strong off that. That’s probably part of where I messed up
