These are two plants that both aren't looking to good but appear to have different problems....they are about three weeks old and were under flouros until a few days ago when i put them under my 250 hps. The first one with spots had the spots before the switch while the second plant with the burned lookin edges didnt look like that under the flouros.




Can anyone help me?

They look overwatered, and overfertilized. Transplant to bigger container and lay off the ferts for a seedling.

The leaves are too dark so I think You did N overdose and that you are on your way to nutlock. Try the leaves if they are soft its N overdose. Or it could be K deficiency.

So much misinformation in this thread.. gtbuds2332 listen to the people that have firm answers, don't let people guess, what it might possibly be

Well, "regular" potting soil can be too hot for seedlings, depending on the type of soil. For seedlings , you should be using starter mix, and mix some perlite in with it. I recommend flushing, and transplanting to a bigger pot/cup with a light mix in it, and see how it goes. Good luck.
