9 day old sour d light bleaching

I'm not familiar with the soil you're using, so I don't know if it has enough nutrients in it or not. I don't want to tell you the wrong thing and make you burn up your plant, because it looks hungry to me, but again, I don't want you to burn it up on my account, still wouldn't worry about those 2 bottom leaves dying off, hopefully someone else can chime in and get you squared away man

Is that cfl you're using an actual 100w or is it a 100w equivalent, meaning 23w cfl, if it's the 23w you don't have enough light on her, and that would explain a lot.

Its the biggest cfl they sell at walmart. I think its pulls 60 watts and is 100 or 200 equiv. The soil doesnt have any nutes. Im doing a organic grow so im going to add some grow and micro blast by earth juice quarter strength see what happens ill foliar feed her this same solution to get into her more quickly. The soil im using is mg natures care with perilite and 3tbs of dolomite lime

You'll want more light if you can man, that's only 60 watts you're giving it, and it's ready to grow upward but it's going to need more light to get much of a yield.

24-30" to start, the mars website will give you the distance for both veg and flower

Rust colored spots is a Calmag def. Yellowing leaves could be a N def. You would have to post pics and info to get more efficient help.

Calcium for sure, yellowing may be natural. Post pics and grow info for any real help.

Carl-- MG soils are very often food amended, and too hot initially for seedlings; I found conflicting info on this one; one site it's rich enough to support 2 months growth, another say no nutes added- .. Mass produced soils are shaky for quality consistency as well; MG is notorious for problems that I've seen here,... have you checked the soil pH? If you're using RO water, and pH'ing it to 6.5, it's not going to stay there long! RO has no pH buffering capacity, and will swing wildly from small inputs and be very unstable,... I'm thinking the soil is too acidic at this point, and feeds being acidic too, will worsen matters,.. Dolomite is fine, but it's slow acting, and if it's too course grained it'll be really slow acting, to release mineral nutes and buffer pH,...
.. how old is this seedling? There's several things going wrong here, clearly not liking that soil unfortunately,... A pH reading is critical, to see if it's a lock-out or plain lack-of nute's issue. do a run-off test--( https://www.autoflower.org/threads/...-testing-and-ph-estimation.41733/#post-928975 ) .... try the soil right from the bag first to see where your starting point was,...
