Mars is pretty crap, and I’m not overly familiar with your nutrients there, but she’ll do the trick and get you some bud my friend. don’t over fertilize. maybe Add some perlite to your mix and giver. Feel free to search the forums for great info. You should start a grow diary for your first go. Folks will help you and it will be a good way for others to learn from your documentation. If someone sees you doing somethin crazy they will holler at ya “No man don’t put the grow light under the plants” :D

Try Letting the medium dry almost completely between watering. I think you are drowning them possibly

If your talking about the first set of leafs being kinda big and curled? I had the light to close I think is the reason for that? Moved it up to 20 inches.

Up your pH to the 6.3 - 6.5 range.

I use only coco and found I run into leaf curling and other problems when I pH to 6.0 or lower. If you’re using a mix of coco and soil , 6.0 is probably too low.

That may solve your deficiency problems without having to tweak your nutrients...

I generally use coco and promix.. been even throwing in organic soil and worm castings as well. I find 6.4-6.7 I’m gold. I purposely waver up and down that range generally to bring out different colours and such. 6.6 6.7 is what I always do until they are mid/late veg I never water below 6.4, but when I check runoff it as low as 6.1 6.2 at times. Don’t know if that helps ya

One more bit of advice as I have nothing better to be doing right now except waitin on the wife to come out of the dang store here lol.
I currently use maxibloom (old school 1 part power. Comes in kg bags for like 15-20 bones.) I now am getting into a bit of organics and pk boosters and silicates and hardener/finishers.. anyways all the products can be overwhelming, and it’s a bit of a racket at times. Folks want your money. It’s not to say that the folks on here with the fancy expensive products don’t benefit from them products. But using fancy expensive stuff doesn’t mean you will grow like them. Almost all of those guys have year and years of experience and have slowly built up their repatoir of products over time. Tweaking no more than a few things each grow to be able to see what’s good or not.
I’m rambling.. anyways for a beginner I would recommend maxibloom or jacks 1 part with maybe a little something higher in nitrogen for veg (although you can get away with it in veg.) I would argue if it’s your first time anyways, you will prob have better results off a 20 dollar bag of maxi then 200 bucks worth of fancy bottles. There are slightly superior 1 parts available nowadays, but again spending lots won’t mean better results. Use a good one part and control that ph and you will blow your own mind (if you started with good beans)
