Looks like the beginnings of an N deficiency to me.

Ok, normal dosage of grow nutes from now on.
Thanks for the replies!

well, I'm doing something wrong, at first I thought your plants were growing too slow, as mine grew a little faster than that at first. but then I looked at your roots, they're healthy as shit! my roots always come out small. I'm guessing them growing slow at first but growing quick roots means they're stable, then they probably go through a growth spurt and start growing an inch or two in height a day, right?
well, let me know please
thanks

They do grow slowly compared to what I've seen under a 400W HPS and in a large soil box. I had expected them to be larger by now, but remember that they are under 90W and in small containers.
I'll put a little stick next to the plants to see how much they grow each day.
edit: also note that the last pics of the plants with the roots were taken from an angle from which the plants look smaller than they really are.

 "Prohibition will work great injury to the cause of temperance. It is a species of intemperance within itself, for it goes beyond the bounds of reason in that it attempts to control a man's appetite by legislation, and makes a crime out of things that are not crimes. A Prohibition law strikes a blow at the very principles upon which our government was founded." - Abraham Lincoln

18/6 for the first two weeks. 24/0 after the first two weeks. I needed the timer for something else and decided to try 24/0, no other reason for the change.

I just constructed an improvised CFL lamp to put on top of a small greenhouse. This greenhouse will house the clones that will be cut from the seedlings.
   
I used 3x 15W CFL's ("cool white"), a wooden frame and a cardboard/aluminium foil reflector (and some ducktape here and there for the pro look  ).
I plan to place this on top of a small greenhouse, inside a cardboard box to create 12/12 (to determine gender). I'm testing temperature inside the greenhouse now.
Any comments/tips etc?

Did you build in a way to ventilate the clone area?

Not yet, but I think I'll connect it, in series, to some already running fans (in my normal or mother box).

yah, just as long as you get some airflow in there you'll be ok. The CFL's don't produce much heat, but, they still produce it. Besides that plants need and love fresh air

Yeah, plants need fresh air, but high humidity is more important for clones. I'll let the air flow around the greenhouse and open a few small windows in the greenhouse/propagator itself.

high RH is only important for a clone in the first three days of it's life. Even so, when growing in a greenhouse, you still need to provide an air exchange for your plants or they'll suffer. It doesn't have to be continuous, but, you sill have to a.) remove the heat from your lamps and b.) replace the air so that your plants are happy.

Unless you have really hard, or really soft water, tap water won't hurt your plants that much. The only think you need to watch out for is that tap water tends to be pretty alkaline. Alkaline soils will block out the uptake of micro nutrients such as Zn, Mg, and Fe.
Yellowing leaves with green veins in the older leaves is a sign of Mg deficiency. Leaves that are turning yellow all over (no green veins) is a sign of N deficiency. New growth that is turning yellow with green veins is a sign of Mg lockout or Zn/Fe deficiency. A flush and a feeding of micronutes will help fix that problem.
Still nothing beats a solid pic of the problems you are having if you want more help in diagnosing them.
