SO I HAVE 5 - (42WATT) CFL'S AND 3-(26 WATT) CFLS ALL IN THE 6500K
AND 1 -26 WATT IN 2700K. ALL THE LIGHTS ARE ON A REFLECTOR CONNECTED WITH DUEL SOCKET ADAPTORS. THERE ARE THREE "CHEESE" SEEDS FROM GHS CO.
ONE WAS GERMINATED A COUPLE DAYS EARLIER THAN THE OTHER TWO. AT FIRST I HAD THE LIGHT TOO FAR AWAY AND SOME STRETCHING HAPPENED. I NOW HAVE THEM WITHIN TWO INCHES OF THE LEAF TIPS. THE BIGGER PLANT IS TWO WEEKS OLD AND IS STILL SMALL BECAUSE OF THE LACK OF LIGHT, IT ALSO HAS A WHITE TIP ON TWO OF THE LEAFS THAT I POSTED A THREAD ABOUT COUPLE DAYS AGO. AS FOR THE SOIL, IM USING "PAMPER YOUR PLANT" WITH WORM CASTINGS AND 30% PERLITE. WATER IS PH TESTED BEFORE FEED AND NO NUTES YET.
LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU GUYS THINK........ CRITICISM IS WELCOME !

FIRST TIME GROWER..... LONG TIME SMOKER :bigjoint:

hmmm.....you know im not sure man.. thats kinda weird... WHITE TIPS???? my instinct says its the tin foil reflectors. (tin foil Creates uneven spots of light. They are known as hot spots.) try the beer can method. or license plate method for reflectors. they help alot with the even distribution of light. LOOKING GOOD THOUGH MAN!!!!! WAY TO DO IT RIGHT MAN. THAT BOX LOOKS PRETTY LEGIT FROM THE PHOTOS WHAT DO YOU PLAN ON FLOWERING WITH??????

Thanks dude, Actually I just put those tin foil pieces on right before the photo, the white spots where there a week or so before the pic. That being said, I'm totally gonna get something different other than tin foil for reflection. The lights do have an actual reflector but when you put a duel socket adaptor on it, the tip of the bulb sticks out a bit and allows some light wasted. so i was just trying to catch that extra little bit..... ya know. I just dropped the light today so im excited to see if it shoots up in the next couple days.
Thanks again dude.... keep smokin.

Chlorophyll is the green substance in plants. It takes sunlight and converts it to chemical energy, that is, food; at the same time the process consumes carbon dioxide and releases oxygen. The process is called photosynthesis, which means creating through the use of light. Not all chlorophyll is green, though. There are some kinds which are red or yellow, and they are a bit more resistant to cold than green chlorophyll. But yours are white..... hmmmm some times it could be due to temp shock sunburn and windburn can be a problem and cause this white leaf that you're seeing if you happened to be out doors. But your not! Only thing i can think of is wait it out and see if it stays in the one area of the leaf or starts to spread. Also i wonder could it be something to do with the strain? maybe you have a Michael Jackson plant and it doesnt know what color it wants to be. i sub to this to see more. Good luck with the grow

im pretty sure the white tips will just grow out, it was probably a one time thing..some of my leaves were deformed but it all grew out.
