What is your medium? Do you have holes in the cup bottom? How wet are they could be over watered or root issues.

Yes there drain holes in cup I think I may have been over watering and I wasn’t letting them dry between watering idk
My medium ok make sure there are holes in your cups run water through the medium and put the cups on a towel or folded paper towels to wick the water out after you water them well. Then try to get them to dry out a bit. Other wise you should be fine as this is what I do and I only use Happy Frog so flush then wick dry on a towel. Give them plenty of light and warm air so they will dry.
You also could just put them in bigger pots then water and you should be fine I think they may just be root stunted and want more room to breath. They are healthy other wise so do not worry they will be fine.
We got you put them in bigger pots and water them and your good to go. This is my garden in Happy Frog I water a lot and never have issues when my plants look like yours it is also because they are still in my red solo cups and stunted from it.

My thoughts exactly. Those cups look only 1/2 full. No room for the roots. Time to up-pot.

Wat size pots should I go up to?I wanna finish in 7 gallon fabric pots.
depends if its an auto or regular , need to put it into final pot asap if its auto , if not just keep moving up depending on the speed the roots grow
Hey Chiefy,
Welcome to forums at 420! Soil is too wet and needs to be upcanned to larger container. If those are autos they need to be upcanned into large final container 3 to 5 gallons if they are photoperiods then just bump up to 1 gallon container.
ah I see duplicate question

New growth is often light green and will improve as more chlorophyll is produced as the leaves grow

I agree with the uppotting of the half filled cups... next time go up almost to the rim.... but I also see signs of severe overwatering. The hole in your leaf looks like bug or some other physical damage.

Have you read my watering article yet? It is my belief that the information contained therein will greatly improve your grow.
Regarding uppotting... if they are autos, put them in 3 gal containers, they wont get much bigger than that. If they are photos, it is not a race to get them in the biggest container... your goal should be in building a rootball at each stage and then incrementally up-pot, only after the roots fill the last container. If you are watering correctly and looking at the right signs, the plant will tell you when it is time to uppot, and you no longer have to guess.

Welcome. Up pot, and water by weight. You want it to dry out between watering.
