This one is starting to come along, but the leaves look slightly disformed?

Also, i've noticed the perlite in the solo cups is yellowing. Could that possibly be from poor ventilation, or just from the light?

Week 5-6 for the big one, 3-4 for the smaller ones. Going to induce flowering once the smallers ones catch up. They're coming along fairly well

Thank you, i have quite a couple of leaves that are yellowing near the center of the plant. Could that be from lack of light, or a possible nitrogen deficiency? I'll post a pic if it'll help

most likely age of leafs. they will yellow and drop.
on the larger one is a good time to take some clones.
i always say clone early and often. that way if you have
a good keeper you have clones of it already. for next round.
also clone plants are faster than seed plants to grow.
good luck

rubbermaid tub painted white inside or 2 together to be taller.
2 sockets and 2 100 watt eqv cfl bulbs would work nicely in it.

They look pretty good. Try not to overwater or overfertilise the little ones - hard to tell from the pix, but the smaller ones look like they might be clawing a bit from slight moisture stress and possibly a little too much N.

Those plants are also old enough to sex: have look at where the leaf stems and branches meet the main stem - especially towards the top of the plant - and you should be able to see a couple of tiny pistils with white hairs (female) or balls with stems (males).

Yellowing near the centre of the plant is usually a sign they are being shaded by the other branches and not getting as much light. The plant will use up all the energy from those leaves and discard them. This allows more light penetration, whilst the energy is used to grow into areas of stronger light. Plants are very smart in their own way and will regulate their growth patterns depending on the environment.

1 of the 3 smaller plants is a female i think, it seems like the pistils are green though for some reason. Some are forming on another but it's too early to tell. I think i did slightly overfeed the smaller ones with nutrients, i'm going to give them plain water for the next week or so and then switch them all to flower once i can determine the sex. Pics will be coming soon as well
