You've got small plant in big pots. The root system of the plants isn't big enough yet to reach all the water in the bottom of the pot. As the plants get bigger and the roots spread they will use the water a lot faster and you'll have to feed more often.

I didnt think of it that way,guess thats the deal yes. Then i will keep an eye on snowR for now, and see how they turns out. I appreciate all help from u guys. Stay cool and well talk soon:)
 
Well,i got one more for you guys:) My one mazar is getting big and the container feels light when i lift,it has gotten grow nutes once,i think i give it little too much beacaeuse the upper new groth tips yellowed a bit,but that yellowing seems to have gotten a bit worse now,am i wrong so it need some nutes now? It has a lot of pistils,only bllom and micro or some grow to? Thanks.
 
Is it only the very tips of the leaves? What is your soil, what nutes did you feed and at what strength? They could be over fed so I wouldn't give them anymore yet until we sort it out.

Actually i will say the tips are more light pale green,and some of the large fans are getting yellow spots guite much. Well i gave it som AN mother earth tea grow for a week ago,and i hit it with 1/2 strength biobizz bloom and topmax earlyer today. My soil is Plagron wich is sphagnum peatmoss,i keep the water/feeding at ph 6.7.
 
Your mix is considered soil less since it primarily consists of peat and perlite. It contains little nutrients so it's up to you to supply them. That mix is very similar to the Pro Mix that I use. It's hard to make a definitive diagnosis without a picture but from what you are describing, the light green color and weakness of the new growth, it sounds like you need more N, and probably some cal/mag. At this point, 3 weeks, you should not be feeding the bloom and top max yet. I would continue using the Mother Earth for the next 2-3 weeks or until vertical growth slows and stops. Then use the others. Also, for soil less medium you need to run your pH lower, about 6.2. Do you know what the pH of your soil is?

Seems most likely N and mag yes,because all of the plants are showing the same tendency as i looked closer. But some of the pots are still heavey,do i feed some N anyway after a flush? I tried to lower ph last grow beacause i was told to handle the medium as hydro,but then it yellowed fast i remember. Not that i doubt your advice,but are you sure i have to lower ph? The shop manager told me to handle it as soil and that ph...Soil ph is now 7.
Light green tips on new growth that is weak,also starting to yellow on wide surface on leaves,some brown spots also but (dead brown spots) not many.


-I have one photo afghan kush x black domina,that plan looks perfect in ph 6.7 feeding in plagron light mix,i transplanted it into ffof for a week ago and kept giving ph 6.7 water and is still beautiful. Im little confused,lots of different opinions on wich ph i should adjust the feeding in plagron...
 
A soil pH of 7 is too high, even for a soil grow, let alone a soil less one. Soil should be about 6.5 You were given good advice when told to run it more like hydro. If you look at this chart you will see that with a pH of 7 in hydro, just about everything is being locked out, especially calcium.

Too bad you just fed yesterday as that would have been a good time to hit them with more of the Mother Earth tea. I don't think you need to flush, just wait till they are ready to be fed again and use the tea. I would adjust the pH of the feed to about 5.8 and check the pH of the run off.

I would also pick up a cal/mag supplement and start feeding it with every feeding. Cal/mag deficiencies are common with autos, especially when grown soil less.

Bear in mind when dealing with hydro store that it's pretty likely that they have no experience with auto flowering plants. They aren't the same as photos and have different nutrient requirements.
