I had a couple that looked similar to yours... thought the problem was overfeeding and flushed them. Turns out overfeeding was a secondary problem and the primary was overwatering. I've found my plants (skunk red hair) prefer much more to be dry. They are in 5 gallon containers and are spray misted on their fan leaves twice a week and watered only once every 10-14 days. Since I swiched the watering schedule from 3-4 days to 10-14 I've noticed significant improvement in pigmentation, size, and stature of the plants. I'm pretty new myself though, and I'm not sure if it's just my strain that likes to be dry...

ok then im over watering and over feeding.
i thought the yellowing may have been a lack of N.
could that be the case?.
 
It's 5 o'clock somewhere

If, like you said, they are all on the same water and food schedule then wouldn't the N shortage show up in all of them? How long have they been in that pot? Are they root bound?

Every 3 to 4 days in my opinion is still overwatering in some circumstances and this just might be one of them,, let us know how its doing....:peace:........

ok ill take your word for it, but like i said, i feed and water them all the same.
i do 1 big water, when i add superthrive and food. and one small water every week.
why would one plant go yellow and the other 2 dont.
only thing that could be diff, is the compost/drainage, im always trying diff things.

so do plants start to turn yellow, when overwatered?, didnt know that, unless you started to kill it, by over watering. i only give 1 half pint big water and half on the next one.
thanks

i have to water every 3 to 4 days, they are in smallish pots,but the are only small plants.
i have to water, cos my temps are 80 and the soil drys out, also i have a fan blowing when the lights are on, and that helps dry things out.
my smaller pots need watering every day, maybe more sometimes.

pot size is definetly a factor in all of this... if you are unsure you are overwatering pick up a moisture sensor. I have a cheepo ($15) 4-in-1 meeter that does PH, Fertility, Moisture, and Lighting. I'm sure it isn't the most accurate at any of the above but closer is better than guessing. Between the lighting, 72 deg F temp, and desktop fan 24 hours the top 2" of soil was getting extremely dry. The moisture meeter told me the bottom 4" of the 5gallon container was still very wet so that's why I switched my schedule. Turns out it takes 10-14 days from watering before the bottom of the container reads a 2 out of 5. I'm sure as the plants mature and grow that will change. Enclosed are 2 pics of problems I've had with some of the first grow. The one on the left is blatant overfeeding (I know, "classic rookie" )and the pic on the right is from overwatering. Some plants just react differently I guess... both were given the same amount of nutrients and water early on and were flushed on the same day 2 weeks before the shots were taken. My gallery has some healthier plants of the same batch which have not been overwatered or overfed
