Yellowing !

Hello just looking for some help. Fresh newbie here. I have 7 sweet jackys in a 4x4 with 1000watt my dimmed to 600.

They are 13 days old. The bottom leaves started yellowing about 5 days ago but they still grew new leaves.

The soil is organic promix red.

Overwatering ? Also should I trim those crappy ones off ?

Thanks a bunch !

You won’t get an answer without pics. Or a good answer anyways.

sorry it didn’t post in the original
Comment. Thanks !

Don’t trim them. The wrinkled leaves look like overwater to me.

If they don't have, poke holes in bottom of those cups, it might be too wet at the bottom of them.

Nevermind i see holes on one cup. Maybe the PH of your water?

5.9-6.2. But it does seem soggy. Maybe transfer them and add some pearlite? I watered from the bottom last time to try to stretch roots

Mist and perlite will definitely help

So I added pearlite and transferred a few of them to bigger pots. The leaves were really crisping up and not doing well.

Upon transferring them I had to open a new bail of promix.....well this is the exact same brand of soil and the bail seems way looser and drier. The old bag of promix I have is very compact almost clay like. So I am thinking I got a bad batch ? As soon as I transferred them they started peeling up and growing new leaves again. Does anyone else use promix ? How often do you typically water ?

Thanks !

I use a cheap moisture meter in my grow. I can put it into the soil about 7" and it gives me a good idea of where I'm at. Too many variables with different soils, temp, and humidity to predict when you should water.

I got it from Amazon, plenty of them on there.

I wouldn't worry about the bottom leaves as long at the top ones are healthy.

They don’t look unhealthy to you ?

Every time I see a new leaf start to grow an old set starts to die !

I've had my clones ditch lower leaves before when they were small, and they were just fine. The one on the bottom right looks like it is less happy than the rest. One thing I did was to step up on pot sizes, I put the clones in 1/4 gallon pots, then gallon, then to their final pots. It makes it easier to control watering I think. Here are some references. In soil I think your pH is a little low.

I am using bottled water from Canadian tire.
They sprouted July 26th. You thinking it’s a ph and nutrient issue ? Thanks a lot for all

I got to where I am by someone's help, and a lot of reading. I think it is more a watering issue at this moment, soil will compensate for pH for a long time. Edit: I just gave you the charts for future reference, also did you check pH after mixing in nutes? they will change it.
