hey guys its my first post
so im currently growing 4 plants (3weeks)in a tent 2x2x4 im using 2 100w led bulbs and 2 taotronics led grow bulbs, the lights are about 6 inches away from the plants. i have them in 3gallon pots in fox farm soil(transplanted 2 days ago from solo cups in organic soil from home depot). my temperature is 70-78 and humity is a bit high at 70%, also have a small 6" fan on low speed.
So my issue is that the tips are getting yellow and curling up, also the edges feel a bit crispy and curling up aswell.
this is my first grow so i know im making mistakes lol but just wanted some tips and advice on my setup.20161205_162041.png 20161205_161957.png

I can't say , idk . Do you move the plants around to be under the different bulbs . I have some LEDs that are smaller than yours and I have a blue dream under them and burned a leaf by letting it get to close .

Do you have a grow plan , or what's your goals a least ? And yes I think you can do a compact grow . How dose I feel if you put your hand right on top of the canopy is hot / comfortable/ barely noticeable ?

well its my first grow so dont really have a solid plan lol. I was hoping I could veg and flower under this setup
when i put my hand over its barely noticeable mostly since the fan is blowing right at them

If you can use the fan to cool the lights with out blowing directly on the plants that's the best .
Is that ocean forest or happy frog?

I use ocean forest also , it really don't need any nutes till maybe 3/4 weeks in . And it can have some hot spots in the bag so it pays to mix up .

What I do is mix ffof/ffhf/ ewc /perlite / d-lime/ great white or mycos. Wet the whole mix and let it set for 2/4 weeks . Ro water , ff nutes 600w vented hood .
