First time grower. Gonna take a stab at this grow journal thing. I'm definitely going to be asking some questions along the way!
I noticed yesterday the tops of the leaves appear to be a lighter green than the other parts of the leaves. I've read this could be from overwatering, light burn (although I haven't noticed these leaves "praying" at all) or possible nutrient lockout (I've fed zero nutrients, only letting them feed off the soil).
There is a chance I've overwatered. I assume that will just happen being a new grower. For about 2 days the light was at 30%, but turned back down to 25% yesterday. This is my first grow, so naturally I'm worried about every little thing that appears to be not normal.
