First time grower and wanting to see if she is okay. I've noticed the newest leaf growths are light in color. Is this normal? Looking at the self-diagnose sticky, could it be sulfur deficiency? From what I've read, using salt based nutrients prevent this. I'm using House & Garden nutrients, but I've only just started week 4 today in fox farm ocean forest and have only given supplements so far (starting a few days ago). So far I've given Roots Excelurator (full dose), Drip Clean (full dose), Multi Zen (1/2 dose), Amino Treatment (1/2 dose), Mammoth P, and some molasses (unsulfured). These are definitely salt based as there is plenty of salt left in the pan after the runoff has evaporated. I have yet to use the Soil A & B, since it is in FFOF, but plan to start it on the next feeding. Let me know what you guys think, if it's normal I'll just chalk it up to me being a noobie. Thanks!
Also, this is the most recent pic I have at the moment, hopefully you can zoom in and see specific areas better.

I think she's looking great, doing really well for your first time :)

New leaves will almost always be lighter in colour and as they mature they reach same colour tone as the others, so 'most times' that's perfectly normal, however, there are times that is not the case but you would see other issues alongside that.

Keep it up, nothing to worry about here as of now in my opinion.

Thanks Silver, I appreciate that! Takes a load off my mind, I'll breathe easier now and just let her do her thing
 
Lookin' guud :thumbsup:
To keep it that way keep an eye on your pH. Buy a portable pH meter (aka pH pen) accurate to two decimals and some pH down (like sulfuric acid).
That way you can measure the water going in and if your plants show some kind of deficiencies you can water until runoff and then you can measure that...

Good luck with your grow ;)

Yeah, that's on the "to get" list lol. Currently using the pH drops, and pH everything going in. At the start I did a slurry test of the soil (fox farm ocean forest) because I had heard it can run in the 5's, which it did. I added lime and it ran at about 6.5 after that. Next time I do just water I'll collect some runoff and check it. Appreciate it!
