Leaves yellow on one plant out of many. Suggestions?

I've got a fair number of very healthy little girls at the moment, but one that just seems to be struggling to flush out a nice solid green. Plant seems healthy otherwise. Same soil, environment, etc as the rest that all seem very healthy. Suggestions?

For next grow... try transplanting from smaller containers into larger ones. These plants look to small for these large containers. You will see improvements in growth rates.

I'll give that a try. Using this method based on advice from someone who has grown these autos before and had better success doing this route. Said the loss of three or four days from stress of transplant impacted harvest weight significantly.

Ah. I didn’t know these were autos. I only grow photoperoid plants. 😅
What is your ph like?
A little lighter color is normal for new growth.

Don’t worry about it, there’s always a little “runt” that can’t keep up with the rest

Toker1 the soil ph is around 6.5 and I'm watering with ph 6.1 or so. Supplementing with CalMag as I am using RO water. Gave them their first feeding last night at 10% of recommended dose. Only reason I was concerned about the color is that this plant is noticeably much, much lighter than the others. I have 89 currently in progress and all are a nice deep green except this one.

9fingerleafs any suggestions on what I could do for this specific plant that might get it over the hump? Would a heavy nutrient dose help do you think?

 

[9fingerleafs]

I don’t think more nutrients will do any good, not if the rest of the plants are fine. Some plants grow very fast and strong and some don’t, sometimes some plants just don’t make it. Some plants have a shitty metabolism or just not very vigorous. There’s always genetic variation from plant to plant, this are called phenotypes, the expression of the same genotype. Just like two human can have different child’s and while they do carry the “same” DNA some genes manifest and other don’t.

Yeah...since you are growing from seed, some plants will be noticeably different from the others. The genetic variation will cause different growth rates and different reactions to environmental cues.
