1st Grow - Northern Light - Journal (aka help me not screw up)

Lights are between 27-29” above canopy. Recommended 28-36”. I’ve taken some fan leaves off but don’t see anything.
 
Personally I would move the light up a touch to start, you are on the bottom end of the recommend number and new growth tips burn can be from light burn. To flower your plants are going to double or triple, you have room for that yes?
 
Moved them to 30”! Yes, they are currently sitting on 5” tall planter stands and I have another foot above the light to move it up further. Recommended flower distance is 20-24”.
 
I would start there and if in a couple days if it doesn't get worse and you know that's the problem, remember change one thing at a time so you know what you're fixing.
 
No, haven't had that. But it doesn't sound right. Could it be your water, I'v8 lived in some nasty smelling water places.

Quick update. Switched lights to 12/12 this past weekend. Added a new 4” inline fan to help with airflow. Overall things be good.

Spoke too soon. I was dealing with some potential pest/ focusing on spraying them, and during that time let them get too dry. Major wilting, even had 1/2 a cola go completely limp and had to chop the entire branch after it turned brown. My smaller 2 haven’t recovered and seem to be on a decline. I’ll post a series of pics of the two and one of the healthy ones for comparison.
 
I think you have a sulfur deficiency in your indica plants.
Can you detail your Fox Fram feeding in tsp/ml and tell me what your pH has been, how you water.
 
I’ve been using FF Trio at 1/4 strength (1.5tsp BB, .75 tsp GB) veg, then switched to 1/2 strength (1.5 tsp BB, 1 Tsp GB, 1tsp TB)this week after going 12/12 lights. I PH the water to 6.5 and water when the pot is light. I add 1 tsp CalMag to ever feeding / watering

I alternate watering and feeding. Although during the pest scare, I only watered for a week and didn’t feed them except CalMag.
 
How old is your soil that the indica plants are in?
Did you flush or transplant after the last time we talked?
Did the sulfur smell go away?
 
They’ve been in those pots for about 6 weeks now.

I did flush, but didn’t transplant.

It still happens occasionally after watering/feeding but doesn’t last long,
 
Ok Kenny, I'll tell you what I think and you can choice

First is that some strains can be notorious to being sensitive to over feeding, so looking at the brunt tips I question that, has the tip burn been around a bit? It will not go away but should not get worse.

Not all brown edges are a excess.

Second is what I really what to say. Your plants need to have the nutes raised. Lower yellowing leaf is a sign that you have a deficiency. Plus been in the ffof for six weeks leads me to think your Indica plants are hungry. If you feel like this is matching info then look at 2 to 3 tsp. Of Big bloom, or tsp. Of grow big and 1 tsp. Of tiger bloom the next feeding.
Then make sure you flush with a good amount of water at 6.2 Ph to get 20% runoff.

Third is that the sulfur smell can be caused by not letting your pots dry out completely, they should be super light when you pick them up. Your droopy leafs can be from this as well, overwatering is a big problem multiple ways, 1) too much too often or 2) watering too soon. If you are having a waterlogged root problem that can cause lockout. Judging by the size different this could be a problem if you water them all the same at the same time.

I sorry that I'm not more definite with my advice, I just see it could be either way from the pictures.

Hope this helps and don't change the other plants they look great.
