I purchased 10 White Widow 5+5 fem from you a few months ago. I am trying to figure out what I am doing wrong. I have 2 plants from first 5 seeds almost finished. They are very small and have had lots of growth issues. I am growing other strains at the same time and same place and they are doing great. I just started the other 5 seeds and only 1 germinated in rapid rooters. It has been 2 weeks. I don’t want to try more seeds without figuring out what happened.
Soil
Using Foxfarms guide for nutrients
Indoor
2 300 watt led
75 degree fahrenheit
45% humidity
Fan that clears when temp is above 75
I topped when I had 4 main colas.
My girl scout cookie hybrid from another seed source is doing great.
Slow growth and now getting brown spots along veins and curled edges
The pics show whole grow and then close up of white widow plants.

You should fill out the support ticket you have a lot going on, the fellas here are right ph is likely an issue I can see excess nitrogen which already puts calcium and potassium at risk. There is lots going on here over all I think you should test your ph as well as get a ppm reading
I will PH it today. I found it odd that just 2 of the plants out of 8 were like this. Same watering and soil mixtures. Do you find different strains are more sensitive to Ph changes?
Solution to fixing a Phosphorus deficiency
Some deficiency during flowering is normal, but too much shouldn’t be tolerated. Any chemical or organic fertilizers that have Phosphorus in them will fix a Phosphorus deficiency. If you have a phosphorus deficiency you should use any N-P-K ratio that is over 5.Again Peters all purpose 20-20-20 is a good mix. Miracle grow Tomato plant food, Miracle grow All purpose plant food (Only mixing at ½ strength when using chemical nutrients, or it will cause nutrient burn!) Other forms of phosphorus supplements are: Bone meal, which is gradual absorption, I suggest making it into a tea for faster use, where bone/blood meal is slow acting, but when made into a tea it works quicker! Fruit eating bat guano, which is fast absorption, Worm castings, which is gradual absorption, Fish meal, which is medium absorption, Soft Rock Phosphate, which is medium absorption, Jamaican or Indonesian Guano, which is fast absorption. Crabshell, which is slow absorption. Tiger Bloom , which is fast absorption.
Here is a list of things to help fix a Phosphrus Deficiency.
I have been feeding fox farms using the soil regimen they send with the set. I am using Tiger Bloom, Cha Ching, Bembe, and Grow Big. They get fed 1-2 x per week when the soild dries.
I wonder if this batch is too close to harvest to make a difference as they will probably be ready in 2 weeks. Thoughts?
Checked the Ph and found the culprit. Way way low. I took it for granted and wasnt testing. Beginner’s luck that they grew at all. Now I know! Thanks everyone.
99 days… ?
Over watering and I’m sure a few other thngs…
Not the seeds fault…
Yours…
Everyone always gives the plant way too much of everything…
Water , Nutrients , airflow ,c02 , humidity and everything in between… lol
Less is always better…
