went to a mate of mine over crimbo and he's got a grow on the go but his plants arnt lookin that healthy, i told him bout this forum but he has no computer so i said i would ask you lot on here what you thought.

i thought it could be heat stress or nute burn, the tips of leave are drying and the plant are looking dehydrated

Looks like poor quiality soil that hasn't had any perlite added to aid drainage.

I think a repot in to a decent quiality soil with added John Innes No2 mixed with about 25% perlite and within a week those plants will look much better.

yes i would say it was from the soil being too moist they need to dry out a little and re potting i would say!!

haha yeah did he dig up the soil from the garden :D

yeah a re-pot would help, will take quite a while to show improvement though

cheers for the advice fellas went round there yesterday and re-potted them for him as the pots are quite big he didn't fancy doing it him self, got the bulk of the roots but some snapped off hope this will be ok?
used john innes no2 and medium perlite, give a week and i'll go round and av a look see what they're like i'll let you's know how they get on.
i'd say my mate owes me a few buds at harvest, onces again thanx for the advice and the rapidness of the responses

My thought is check your ph. It looks off IMO. Don't think it's your lights burning the plant unless your hanging them down the sides of your plant. The burning is happening half way down the plant and not on top.
