A bit worried about first one. A bit of leaf burn. A piece is missing and the other leaf has a burnt tip. What could it be? Nutrients too soon? Very hard water? Not enough or too much breeze? **Day 14 update** They live. Joyous. To be clear this is 14 days after laying the seeds into kitchen roll moistened with distilled water. I had the LED at 45cm but lowered it to 25cm and I'm sure it's stopped them stretching. Gradually increasing watering. Every other day they're getting 160ml each. Just watering near the stem to avoid drowning them. I think they're going to need more of everything in the coming weeks. Some extra info on my setup. To keep the noise down I'm using 2 PC fans until the smell comes. Powered by 2 variable dc wallwarts. I used camping mat to make holders/tubes for them in the toggle holes. Mars Hydro 300 is working solidly for 24/7. I've got a Vander 150w to add, although I'm not sure about it as it's got no heatsink on the led panel. Had to replace the fan as on the Mars with a silent wings because it sounded like an aircraft. You can see the wet tea towel in the other pot tray keeping the humidity up. The intake fan blows on this. I've got a carbon filter built in now with a bathroom extractor fan and a homemade muffler which I'll show when the time comes. HAPPY!

Hi, can somebody with look at my week 6 pics and tell me if this looks like light burn, wind burn or a nutrient issue? I thought initially that it was a nutrient lockout from watering error, but the worst leaves are all on one side. This leads me to wind or light instead.

Looking at your previous weeks, everything was going ok, if a little heavy on nitrogen (dark leaves) and some clawing. That the issue appeared so quick points to a combination of nute burn / lockout. What you need to do is get distilled water, enough for a thorough flush, twice the pot volume should do, so 20 liters or so, then let the plant recover without feeding for at least 1 week. As for your water source, it should have an EC / PPM of 0.4 to 0.5 EC (200 to 250 PPM), above that and it's not good for your plant, you will always risk lockouts and burns using it; below that and it needs calcium and magnesium additive. An EC / PPM meter although optional in soil, makes your life as a grower easier as it takes the guessing out of feeding. For future reference, do not feed more than once a week; feeding in soil, let the plant consume what's on the soil, only start feeding when the first signs of deficiencies appear, not before, since while a slight deficiency will not impair flowering and yield, a burn can be disastrous. Good luck
