First time grower here. I'm trying to figure out what it is happening to my little babies but I'm not confident in my diagnosis. I'm using a mars hydro light led light, the 300w. I did use some dr.earths transplant fert when I moved them to bigger pots about two days ago, using less than what was recommended as this was the first time the plants got any outside nutrients. I was going to flush the tallest one with spotting leaves but can you flush a plant that has fertilizer mixed in? The first 3 are of the plant im most concerned with. The fourth is of my second plant, showing a little purple on the leaves. The 5th pic is my favorite so far, but it looks like it has just a lil nute burn. The 6th is one that I need to transplant but I did give it just a lil fert on top and I'm guessing it got burned as well... The last photo is of a plant thats been growing all wonky from the start but I kinda like it so I'm letting it grow.

Any comments or advice would be awesome.

Welcome to RIU, and the wonderful world of cultivating the world's most misunderstood and feared medicines!!!

The only 'advice' I can give you or anyone is to read and learn and then apply what you have read and learned to your garden and you cannot fail. Anyways, remember the search tool is your friend...Lots of folks here willing to help a new farmer get up and growing. But at the end of the day your grow will be only as good as the knowledge and work you put into it.

It is always great to ask questions but do not take anyone's advice or opinions and follow blindly. And remember anyone may have a well-known member status…but that means they have posted and responded to many threads and does not always mean well-educated growerz. Do your own research, you will be much happier knowing you have done it for yourself and by yourself. The first buzz you get from your own budz...is by far the BEST high you will ever have!

Do a search using your current question as the keyword(s) and ZOOOM!! Like Wonka's Great Glass Elevator…off you go to tons of threads answering all your questions. Read all the Newbie Central stickies and learn…

Soaking up all that information and sifting through it, is going to take time. You will likely finish your first grow by then. Viola! grow complete and education well under way.

If you want opinions on how your plant looks it is usually best to provide a picture that actually shows the issue...Shut off the LED and take some others to get better responses. Mine is the first but others will tell you the same thing.

Anyway to make even a nearly accurate diagnosis much more info is needed...medium, ph, rh, any additives in the medium nutrient wise (not what you have fed), watering schedule and amounts...these will help for starters.:bigjoint:bongsmilie:peace::leaf:

You should turn off the LED and take your picture as color matters. I was stoned and stared at those pinkish leaves with appreciation and confusion for some times, haha. How old are they? from what medium did you transplant it to the new medium? What is the new medium?

I don't think it's nute burn because even with weird lighting you should still see shit on the tips.....

Hello again. I was high as hell last night when I posted this and the photos so I wasn't thinking straight, ha.

It is always great to ask questions but do not take anyone's advice or opinions and follow blindly.
I wasn't asking for a diagnosis really, just input from others who know better simply because they've been at it longer. I have been doing quite a bit of research, I just want to make sure I'm not wrong...

So here is the breakdown of my grow... I have 5 plants that look promising, and then one derpy one. Planted on 5/16 (see first photo). I've been running them on 24-0 light schedule.
I used Black gold potting soil for planting and transplant - https://www.google.com/express/product/15866007939554570541_11854442800121770478_8613692?mall=Arizona&directCheckout=1
The same day of transplant, 6/3, I used Dr. earths seedling and transplant but used a lil less than recommended. https://www.google.com/express/product/8973781640292091724_7806948155661821209_8613692?mall=Arizona&directCheckout=1

I'm guessing there was some sort or nutrient overload along with not enough water, and possibly a little boron issue. So I ended up flushing them yesterday and they are looking much better to me. Stalker grew a lot overnight, as did the others. It looks as if the leaves are starting to repair themselves so I'm hoping that the flushing fixed the issue until I can get my ph meter and get a better idea of whats going on in the soil.

Here are the photos from yesterday in better lighting along with how they look today. Thanks for reading!

Great pictures for three weeks old ,If I were you I would stop using extra help like Dr.Earth, If I'm not mistaken black gold is good on its own, nutrition wise. I burst to laughter when I saw Derp haha. I noticed on some that they still have the primary set, IMHO I'd wait for them to drop for a while before starting to feed

I didn't realize I forgot to include more photos of Derp to get a better look.

As far as the black gold, I believe it has only .05% nitrogen and nothing else.

hehew tiny derp. I personally have not used black gold, I followed the link and noticed it says + fertilizer, anyway the material in it sounds good enough for seedling on it's own IMHO. I'd still suggest to wait for the cotyledons to fall off first before any new food. However you should review more advice to make sure....

Look mike, first you need to change that avatar pic like you said you would (remember that?), its atrocious. Second don't hate on LED.Half of these grows and posts on this website would still show stupid CFL rigs and people asking how to cool their grow room temps in the summer due to their hps lights (lol those posts still exist actually but far fewer). And I can say that because I've been here since '08, I'm an OG.

I know for a fact that signs of overload of a certain nute starts in lower leaves, can't remember which, too lazy to look....

How close is the light to this one it looks like it could be simple light burn
