None yet,using foxgarm ocean forest 2 weeks in soil 2.5 gal pot,plants are clones
None
Welcome to Percy’s mate. A picture of the overall plant would really help us see the whole problem much easier and allow us to give you a better answer. I see what looks like insect damage on some leaves, maybe mites, and the yellow could be anything, like overwatering or low ph. That 6.3ph might be a bit low. How often are you watering it?

@monkeydo I water every other day, I use RO water. One thing I did not add was in a prior episode I remember greenbeard I think said he used a bug repellant that hung in his tent. I use it in mine to keep bugs away. Hope that's not what's causing the issue
@krenkomobboss I wouldn't think the bug traps would cause this issue, if anything they would be more likely to help. You said your watering every other day and that can cause the heavy wilt your seeing, as well as a host of other symptoms. As monkey mentioned soil and peat based mediums do require a dry out cycle, the more often you feed/water soil it can create an issue where the soil almost turns to a mud and strangles the root system. The roots require oxygen too and when they are constantly wet without oxygenation they can't breath and it suffocates them. I would give them a little more time between feeds, if you can lift the pots and gauge the weight, they should be heavy when just watered, then come back in a few days and lift the pots again, you should aim for them at the least to be half the wet weight before watering again. You can also invest in a soil moisture level meter, most garden shops have them and they will help give you an idea of when the soil needs some more water.
As for the bug side of things I daresay that the constant wet medium could be causing half the problems here, the best thing you can do is to throw done a few yellow sticky traps and see if anything lands on them over a few days, once you see something land on them have a good look at them and see if you can identify the bugs in question(if your unsure throw up a pick of them and we will try help). Before you go spraying them with anything I would also take the time to go over them and have a real close look under leaves and on the steps etc as you may find the culprit is hiding out camouflaged amongst the canopy. That's where I would start anyway and then you can address the issues when you have a little more idea of what is causing the marks on the leaves etc.
Glad you made it in! The more knowledgeable members can help.

This could be a big part of the issue. Cannabis likes to cycle between wet and dry and they might not be drying out enough between watering. If the soil stays too wet the roots won’t breathe properly and vigor suffers. A good rule is to weigh the fully watered plant and record that weight. When the plant weighs half of what it weighed when fully watered it is time to water again. At that size in 5 gallon buckets they might not need water for 3-5 days depending on the conditions in the tent.
There also looks like you might have some little critters in there too. The small spots on the green leaves look like mite damage or something similar.
Look very closely at the underside of the leaves for any sign of webs, eggs, or small insects. They are small like dust but they move around if you watch. Take closeup pics if you can and let us know what you find. Good thing is they are still in veg and it’s fixable

@monkeydo, the thing that caught my eye was RH 36%, if that's correct it could use increasing especially with clones, right?

That slipped past me Woodi, good catch. At this stage the plants would prefer 60-65% relative humidity. They are past the critical seedling stage and can handle the lower humidity but they would be happier with more humidity in the tent right now. I’m still leaning to overwatering as the biggest culprit.

That's my current grow,I'm also trying a micro grow, after listening to you guys talking about a micro grow. I decided to give it a shot with autos in 1 gallon pots, those are 2 weeks old in fox farm ocean forest.
