Light Intensity burn or?

6th grow thought I knew what I was doing lol.. please see pics

All i can think of is light intensity burn but I didn't think
light was that close..
Clone taken from flowering plant.. New roots are growing
into the res every day but leaves seem to be looking shittier
every day.. 250Mh around 30cm from plant..

ppm 500
Ph 5.9
water 19 deg celcius

Thanks Guys

Drop your PPM to 300.

I will try this thank you

If that's an open bulb 250mh thats way too much for a newly established clone. And you took it from a flowering plant, another problem.

So you have a few things working against you, the clone is pulling nutrients from the leaves until it has a well established root system.

You put it under MH light, oddly enough MH isn't nearly as useful in veg as you would think, I would put it under CFL, It makes a better structure for unestablished clones. MH makes a tight little plant with little leaves.

Pulling a plant from flower is simply a bad idea depending how late you pull the cut, they have a harder time rooting from what I've tried. They would rather make flowers, and its really hard to flip them back to veg if taken late.

I'l just pull that clone and start again, you might have hermie problems later if trying to flower that stressed out clone.

I agree with GGW, and, unfortunately add another challenge to the list. When you take a clone from a plant in flower it needs to totally re-veg, or re-vert back to the vegetative stage. This takes at least a month, more likely 3 months. I bet if you look close you'll see new leaves that are coming out as singles? While the plant re-vegges, the growth from it's previous life as a flowering plant will die off. It takes patience, a great deal of patience. AND on top of that, she MAY end up being weird: leggy, less potent, less vigorous, useless buds. It doesn't happen with all strains. Some turn out to be great mother plants. You won't know until you grow it all out.

Good Luck

Start again this mongrel thing is fucked. It looks like everything went wrong.
Do some more research ,dust yourself off try again and pathogen control of some sort.
