My baby is not looking to good, it was growing so fast for the first 13 days and since then it slowly has been turing yellow , the first two leaves on the bottom are green, but the rest is yellow, the whole stem is green tho, but the new leaves that i see growing havent changed size in 2 days and are yellow, im thinking i need nitrogen? all i have for the moment is starter plus as the pic shows its 5% nitrogen 10%phosophate 5%iron, my plant isnt dieing but also not growing :(

No it wont, but your plant is stressed due to the deficiency so dont go over nuting, use 1/4 strength recommended on the bottle.

Your nutes are backwards....you need 10-5-10 or something along those lines. Make sure your 1st number is higher than your 2nd number during this stage of growth.

I would definately visit the top of the page and read the GrowFAQ

i dont think that the nitrogen is the problem. first check the Ph. if your Ph is not right your plant will not uptake all the nutrients at the right rates. it looks to be a sulfer deficiency. if it were N-P or K your stems would be red and it would affect mostly lower leaves to yellow. since you say that it is the upper nodes with a green stem it makes me think sulfer or molybdenum, and since these should not be things you control yourself since you are using a premix, i would look at your Ph and flush the hell out of that soil. run water through it for 10 minutes or so. nutrient lockup happens fast in small containers with soil. hope that helps.
