What's wrong with my gals?
Seems like the leaves should be more solid color and darker?

First the vitals; these are "Do-si-doz" strain, clones, they are 6 weeks old. (From cutting)
The environment: 3ft x 4ft x 2 ft cabinet, two exhaust PC fans, intake vents, HLG quantum 260 LED light fixture.
They are in 3 gal smart pots, and I use Hydroponics flora grow, and flora bloom.
There is a ceramic wall heater that keeps inside temps around 70°f.

Not sure what else may be relevant.

The QB is about 20" from top of canopy, and is currently set to lowest wattage.





TIA
Mike

What soil are they in? They actually looking like they might be experiencing nutrient lockout due to excess nitrogen. You're feeding both those in veg? Full strength? Why? Your soil would ideally carry you to this point without nutes, imo.

A plant can only use so much of available nutrition in direct relation to amount of available light.
At that low of intensity, at that height, with those temps, and you feeding it unnecessarily, you are causing nute lockouts.

Ok so 70° lights on and off.
FF soil, flora nova grow (not flower), every third watering
Yes QB is dimmed down and 20" above canopy

Get those temps up, and put that light to 50 % to start...shoot for 80-84 f.
Keep their toes happy..ie rootzones at about 74 degrees.
Lots of air movement, exchange.
Give only water between 6.7 and 7.2 for a few watering.
They should recover.
Good luck.

flush with at least ten gallons of ph water an let dry for a week cut back on ppm aim for 400-500 you may need to repeat the first step

You said it...your only giving nutes every 3rd watering.
Feed them EVERY time you water.
Maybe every 4th watering give them a flush, but feed them every watering.
Your plants look deficient. Feed them

This is very interesting.
Trambles says feed every time.
FastFreddy says water only.

FF said that stupidly, thinking you were in soil...I then said listen to the coco growers.

Water until recovery, then start whatever it is you come up with.

Whats your ph? Huge factor whether the roots take nutes or dont...and affects the plant tremendously,if the roots aren't happy nothing is. Too acidic or alkaline and nothing will go right even in the right environment
