Welcome McSalt to 429 magazine
I can’t see a problem but my iPhone won’t let me see the last one the other two look great !

How frequently are you watering it? Also, what is the recommended height from the plant for your lights? Mine are 36 inches during veg, 24 inches during flower. The yellowing I can see is so minimal. I'm wondering if its time to Feed, or move the light up, or don't water as much.

 

[MacSalt]

I thought with the Mars that is was 18-24 during veg. Now I'm going to have a look again. As for watering I'm waiting till I see the plant droop a bit and show signs of needing water, typically 2 days

First, welcome!

I think your plants look really good. Personally, I don't think that they need nutes at this stage - leaves are a nice healthy green colour, perhaps even a little dark. If you do start feeding, I'd suggest you start quite diluted. That being said, I wonder if perhaps you have a calcium deficiency? LEDs can drive the need for more CA, and can lead to yellowing spots. Not sure though, so hopefully some soil-growers can chime in. Are you allowing the pH to bounce around a bit? Different minerals/nutrients are available at different pHs.

Yes, I think 18-24" for the lights sounds right.

@Emilya is the expert on watering, so tagging her here. She has a really helpful thread on watering techniques to develop healthy roots. I suspect she might encourage you to let them dry out even more. If I understand her technique correctly, in between "big" waterings you can do a really light watering for the top roots, allowing the bottom of the pot to dry out completely. But her guide will explain it better.

Good luck with it.

Awesome, I appreciate the advice.

Lower your pH a bit down to 6.2-6.3. For Fox Farms.
They look ready to transplant.

Good advice, on both points.

Will be transplanting tomorrow than, thanks everyone.

I'm so glad I found this thread. How is your plant doing now? Can you post a new picture? I'm actually doing the same type of set up. I have noticed similar type of yellowing on my new plant (GSC) 1 week old. I always use ocen forest but this time I'm using strawberry fields soil combined together, lighting is Mars hydro ts1000, I hope your grow is going good still. I agree it is very minimal and I'm guessing it went away.

I would guess that it’s up in smoke, this is an old thread - see dates

 

[Azsmoker420]

I really wanted to see that. Bummer

Sorry about that
