The soil i bought was euro soil

Here’s the description of soil i used i was told that i dont need to add nutrients till veg cycle begins but since last two weeks its showing yellow leaves and curling issues so the people i bought seeds from told me that i should add 3ml of veg nutes in 1L water and water them with 250 ml each so i did that day yesterday and it got fried up today from the top so i watered them 250 ml again today.

Also let me show you the light i am using


This light is at 15 inches from the plant above and at 75 percent intensity

Also the humidity is moving around from 50 - 70 when its low i just spray some mist over as i don’t have humidifier also rhe temperatures is getting to 79 - 85 in day and night till 67 Fahrenheit. And last i have added a fan inside that is blowing air to light so it generates less heat

ok your soil needs nutrients but not right now under normal conditions …usually around 4-5 weeks is when you might want to add some nutrients…your light looks to be a good one but I learned a long time ago you need a light meter to measure your light and not go by distance to get the best results…Temps and humidity are OK to me and this is an auto so they do grow differently…you can use the old school technique of holding your hand over the top of the plant and if it is hot you need to raise your light…I use the app Photone on my IPhone and paid $5 to unlock the full spectrum measurement mode…

So what about the veg nutes i gave yesterday? So should i not give them nutes as of now ? And about the light i checked my hand it is not too hot ? And what i really want to ask is why the small one is growing so slow and why they both are getting yellow leaves and curling upp and down as and also it is day 21 for both them so are they growing good ? What do you think

Hey thanks brother

I don’t think the nutrient you added caused any issue…advanced growers might add nutrients from the beginning…I would hold off on any more nutes for now…with what I know right now about your grow I would raise the light to see what happens before I would do anything else…keep good notes on your grow so you can look back and see what worked and what didn’t…

And what about watering i am so confused about that I’ve this 10L fabric pot with 7.2 kg something of rhis soiless mixture in there and firstly i was giving really like 5ml or 10ml eater till it sprouted then i gave them 100ml or 200 ml then one day i gave them 500 ml each then one day the seed company told me that i should water them atleast 1L till i get some runofff so i added rhat day but due to it i had to wait for 4 - 5 days for it to get fully dry and during that period the humidity was hojmg off the chart i had to struggle a lot to maintain it so now i switched to 250 ml daily watering and daily i can find the soil on the top get dry till morning

when I grew in soil I watered to get the soil moist with a small runoff…then I didn’t water again until i saw the soil was dry…that worked for me…also forgot to say not unusual for the 2 plants to grow differently and at different rates of growth…

That my friend is soiless medium, you need to follow soiless feeding and watering schedule. Ph around 5.8-6.2.

That description says soilless and doesn’t show any compost or aged forest materials.

This type of medium should remain moist but not wet. Until you can get a light meter you may find this chart useful.


Im also including this other chart for your observation.

From the description of the euro soil you posted it does NOT show it contains any NPK (nitrogen phosphorus potassium) nor many minor elements so it may need some food sooner than later.
With peat moss
dolomite lime =calcium and magnesium
Gypsum = calcium and sulfur
Vermiculite is inert

Looks dry. They dont need a lot of water but they will stall out if too dry. I would water some.
