What size containers are they planted in? 2 1/2 gallon container 5. What is your soil mix? ffof with added perlite 6. How often do you water and what type of water do you use? water when container feels lite, I use rain water 7. What is the pH of your water? usually right between 6.2 and 6.5 8. What kind of fertilizer do you use and what is its NPK ratio? a little miracle grow early in veg but none since 9. Do you foliar feed or spray your plants with anything?no 10. What kind of lights do you use and how many watts combined? (HPS, MH, fluorescent, halogen, incandescent "plant lights") 600 watt hps for flower 80 watts of cfls for veg 11. How close are your lights to the plants? 2 feet 12. What size is your grow space in square feet? 12 13. What is the temperature and humidity in your grow space?72-76 and right around 50% 14. What is the pH of the soil? don't know 15. Have you noticed any insect activity in your grow space? none 16. How much experience do you have growing?third grow Ok so I transplanted my only girl to her final pot and put her in the flower room and she started to get really light colored but only on the tops,and the fanleaves stared to curl under and get that claw look, now the only reasons i can find that would cause this are either a sulfur deficiency , or to much nitrogen and to much light after being switched from 80 watts of cfls to 600watts of hps, if any of you experienced heads could help me out I'd be very grateful as this is my only girl at the moment and at least 3 weeks before any more are ready

![]() | thank you for responding so quickly, just curious what makes you say lack of nitrogen, because the yellowing being on the new growth had me confused. Ive experienced a lack of nitrogen before and its always starts at the bottom leaves first thats what i look for before feeding them the miracle grow cause otherwise they get burned to easy by it even at low doses, Thanks again
