Hi everybody! My name is Matt and I am a new grower. I purchased seeds from Nirvana, specifically Feminized White Widow. Currently I am growing two plants which are both rather healthy. Seeing as this is my first time, I have a few questions since I have had an issue arise at last.
Before I moved my plants from a dome with rock wool, the plants were at 5 1/4 inches tall (moved them around 2-2 1/2 weeks from seed). I moved them to Organic MG, I know, not recommended. Now they sit inside the rock wool buried with this soil. The temp varies, 69-71 at night, 75-77 during the day hours. Currently my plants are coming up on 5 inches again (some of it was buried to stabilize straight growth) but here is my issue and or questions;
The basic height of my plants seems to be off-putting and rather small, (I will post some pictures) is this normal? I mean only 5-6 inches almost 4 weeks in? It worries me a bit, but this could be normal.
But my main issues comes in when you see the bottom of the plant near the base petal, they have turned yellow and one of them appears to be dead. This was happening to just one, but now both have yellow hue to their base petals. The leaves all seem fine except one which is starting to begin it's yellow hue as well. At first I had them on a 24/0 cycle to let them grow fast. Which in turn worked, recently I have turned to the 18/6 cycle to ensure stabilized growth and no stretching.
Can anyone tell me what this yellow hue is? and why my plants seem to be growing so slow?
Below I am going to show all different angles and focuses of my plants.
You can see that they are healthy and the yellow hues in areas. As well as the small size. Any ideas? Not sure what to do here.
