Question here , I am wondering if anyone else sees slightly puffy leafs like I do , or any other problems. For some reason the cotyledons are super fat but the regular first leaves are super thin and now are looking a little puffy. Help me out here please

Looks perfectly normal to me. Maybe a little light in color, but that might be the camera/lighting.

What would cause lighter colored leaves or light spots? I've noticed lighter color also.

It just looks like where the bigger leafs connect to stem, right above that looks a little wrinkled and puffy.

I took a better picture . If you zoom in a little you can see a bunch of white dots on the lower part of leaf. Also noticing some dark raised lines that almost look like ridges in between the ridges/veins that go sideways.

Looks perfectly fine. Worst issue with newbie growers is obsessing over and over caring for your plants. Growing weed is actually really easy if you understand less is more, over watering is watering too often and over mothering is harmful. Keep going it gets easier.

Easy fix... Zoom out and relax.

The leaves are real floppy today and paper thin . And stem seems to be not holding as well.

You can add some soil to alleviate the stem problem. Not sure what you mean by the leaves being "floppy." Probably could use a bit more light, maybe. What sort of light are you using? How many watts, how close, etc.

Don’t know what media you’re growing in, but at first blush I’d say too much water. When the roots get saturated and can’t dry back they can absorb nutrients. Roots need oxygen as well as water.

Mars hydro fc 1500 at less than 25 percent. I use the photon meter on my phone and I turn it up to 320 ppfd. I'm sure it's not very accurate though

I run a similar light (150 watt LED) and run it at 40% at 36 inches above for seedlings. Your mileage may vary.

That's currently what I have set up right now. I know it looks a little rigged but whatever, it will get the job done . I have fans and humidifiers to help since this is an enclosed closet.

That should be "when the roots get saturated and can't dry back they CAN'T absorb nutrients."

Can you let me know what you think is going on ? I've been noticing a few things that's why I made this post and it's getting worse and more symptoms. I just recently tore most of the roots out when I transplanted the other day . I've almost completely gave up on this one since it is a freebie OG KUSH but I dont want to purposely kill it . I'm finding a spot outside somewhere. I just started germinated a Hulkberry to redo this .

Are you still at 320 ppfd? Back it down to 250... Lights at least 24 inches from the plant, 32-36 even better.

This is what you need to be decently accurate with a Photone compatible smartphone:

Diffuser & Cosine Corrector | Lightray

The Lightray clip-on Diffuser & Cosine Corrector accessory enables to measure light with any smartphone camera.
lightray.io

I have it and LUX readings, at least, match nearly exactly to what my light meter says. So, I'm confident that I'm ±10% on ppfd/DLI measurements.
