Were those pix taken right after the lights came on?

Actively growing plants often have light green growing tips in the morning, and then they "green up" through the day.

Otherwise, all those various chemicals might have caused a Zinc deficiency. http://greenmanspage.com/guides/plant_abuse.html Look for Zinc deficiency, down the page.

Give the girls a bath and avoid going crazy when confronted with a mystery.

Better to ask first.

Did you get them cold? They look like that picture I saw in ICMAG

my lights are always on because theyre vegging with 24 hours on. What can i do if it is a zinc problem?

ive also been watering my plants lately using lemon juice because someone told me that it would keep my ph at the right level. i havent tested it but does that look like it could be a ph problem? can someone please tell me because they look like they might die?

It could be the lemon juice. Too much sugars during veg seems to affect uptake of some nutes.

Get a Ph tester. You can find cheap ones for under $15.

A quick way to correct your Zinc level would be a light application of liquid Ironite. It's easy to find in most nurseries. I've even seen it at Walmart.

Yes, there are products designed for Cannabis, but availability is limited.

Plus, I'm here to tell you that Ironite products have been around a long time, and they work.

Oh! And the lemon juice needs to be washed out of the soil, before you apply the Zinc. Flush thoroughly.

It is silly to try to adjust Ph without a meter.

Not trying to Diss you. Just trying to get the point across that guesswork has killed a lot of plants, and listening to misinformed friends will kill more.
