I think i have identifyed the cause of my yellowing and curling leaves.

I have 5 lemon skunk plants that are 4 weeks old now. I vegged for 3 weeks and then switched to 12/12 for 2 days and that is when i noticed the plants leave not looking healthy. I was then advised to go back to vegging until the plant is healthy.

The temp in my tent is never above 80F and the humidy is aboput 40%.

ive been using these nutes. My medium is Coco ... http://www.hesistore.com/acatalog/Hesi_Starter_Kit.html

do you think these nutes arent good enough?

My real question is what i should do to go about gettin the plants healthy again?? please help

they could be rootbound transplant them into a bigger pot with some fresh soil and they will bounce back within a week you should be feeding them also coco doesnt have much nutrients in the soil but i guess that depends on what kind of coco you are using. Give it a half dose of some kinda nutrients with a high nitrogen content i use fox farm grow big it keeps my plants green be careful tho because too much nitrogen isnt good

I've had the same Nitrogen deficiency with my Lemon Skunk plants. It seems they just want more nitrogen. To increase nitrogen, look at the nutrients you have and see which are high in nitrogen. Bump up this nutrient a little next time you feed them. Adding some CalMag would not hurt as well.

Yes, I am new to growing as well... but in the past 2 months, which has been packed with cannabis research, I learned a few things. Perlite is used to help drain water within your soil mix. Some soils come with it already mixed in (check the packaging on your soil) However, I believe it is still recommended that you add some Perlite regardless.. I'm sure someone else will come along and give much better advice, I'm still new as well...

here's a picture of some perlite in my soil mix (the little white rock-like substance is the perlite)

add more nitrogen. what i use for veg is around 9-3-4. just add more and more every feeding til you have a nice even deep green color. not dark, but a nice deep green. coco is the same as every other hydro set up = 0 nutes from the growing medium, so youhave to supply ALL nutrients.
