ok.... so i planted a couple of seeds and now i have them under my t5's. they have been doing very well up until now. i habve been watering with distiulled water at a ph of 6.3-6.6. twice i had to use tap water with the same ph. on the bottom two leaves there is a rust colored area on leaves tips stretching to the middle of each leaf. top leaves and new growth are great. any input is appreciated.

I had a similar problem with my coco plants. Turned out they didn't have enough food and a healthy feeding fixed it very quickly. Are you giving them any nutes, yet?

wait till the soil is dry, then wait another 1/2 day or day, trust me. when they're thirsty they'll drink fast, you want your roots stretched and healthy! +rep if this helps, check out my grow if you ever get a chance!
