More or less water vs. more or less nutes?

"...usually causes yellow leaves at the top of the plant.." explain why the yellow is in the middle and the top is green?

I'm still going with hot soil for young plant that grew into the nutrient load.
I mean it makes sense And 18 inches during veg is recommended Soo idk...

Idk why new growers start in "organic" soil. It's the most difficult medium to control and diagnose. You ph'ing the water just adds another unnecessary variable. If I were to take a guess I'd say your plant suffering from nutrient burn.

Wonderful reply thanks "Green Refuge". Great question to spur comments and suggestions on what is a good medium new growers should start with.
Any and all welcome to please weigh in. :-D I'd even bake banana bread and put these in there if that made it at all any easier.

Lol at the banana bread. IMO coco is so much easier for beginners because you know exactly what the plant. Plus you can quickly fix any issues that come up. It takes more time and effort in watering/feeding and ph adjusting but it's so worth it when you have complete control over the plant.

Haa thanks! Definitely banana bread from scratch... bananas, sugar, flour, baking soda, sour cream. Eating some now. Appreciate the advice! Will start with coco on next seeds and maybe transition into coco mixed 50/50 with FFHF or FFOF. Does that sound ok or should I maybe try to stick with coco for the duration? Banana bread would be so much easier :-P

That is a terrible idea. Either grow hydro or soil but don't mix them. Later when you know what you're doing you can do that if you want but not now. If you think this is a guessing game try that.

Ok thanks! I definitely don't want to play guessing game. Will stick to soil. Much to learn, crash and burn on. Hate seeing plants suffer if I can do anything to help... Tomatoes and cukes took a huge hit outside this year with too much rain.

This is one of the worst examples:

Or just search on Canuck that should give you a wealth of info.
