you were right about them being to close... i left for a few hours and then came back and when i checked on them one of the cytosol is completed burned....... but the plant itself is still okay...... is there any hope for it? ill post pics of it soon.... man it sucks to come home to an injured...
okay...s o how is it possible to even have a nute burn? I HAVENT ADDED ANY NUTES.. the only burn is from the light touching the plant for too long....... but i was planning on getting some miracle grow moisture control and moving into 2.5 gallon containers.. when they had a little more grow time...
they're about 9 days old.. i just added all the light... before they started only with the one 42 watt cfl now i have much more and better lighting so that's prob. why yours are bigger than mine.. and they were stretching due to the one light but have stopped since i've added more light..
:blsmoke: my lil gals are starting to get there second set of leaves! i accidently burnt one of the tips of the leaves(newbie mistake....) but it seems to be doing good! on the second picture you can see the tip is a little yellow. also i noticed that (the plant in the 3rd pic) has yellowish...
is it too early to be adding nutes? i got some miracle grow all purpose plantfood.. 24-8-16 .... I've read good things and bad things about miracle grow... i would start off 1/4 strength.. when should i start adding nutes?
Thanks for the kind words!! ANd yeah i have a fan hanging in the corner!!! and david ive been reading your journal!! it was really sad to her that you broke the top off :( i can't even imagine..
They're bout a week old now!! and I'm going to be adding one 150w HPS light. They're under cfls right now for a total of 86 watts.. going to be doubling that tomorrow. went 24/0 from seed. and switched too a 18/6. I hope it all works out!! will continue to post updates!!
is running one 150w hps very expensive? I don't want a major jump in my electrical bill but i don't mind a little one.. do you know first hand about how much it costs to run it on a 18/6?
WELL thank you!!!!! that's what i needed to know! this is my first grow and i was wondering if it would be beneficial to also keep the cfls..... while using the 150w hps.. or if it'd be a waste of electricity..
Thanks for the advice!! I switched to a 18/6 now. took some new pics... one of the sprouts has a purple stem... is this natural? or a phos. deficiency... but other wise they seem to be doing good.. and are enjoying the more light.. i plan on buying a few 'y' socket adapters and doubling my light...
also im on a 20/4 right now, should i be 24/0 or 18/6 i've read every where, and everyone says somthing different. I just wanna know what one will work the best.
Thanks for the advice it's actually what i was hoping for, so i got rid of the tin foil but haven't painted the inside white yet. i only plan on being in the box for a few weeks until i transplant to a bigger container and move into a bigger area. but i added 2 more cpfs so now i have one 42...
I've been only using one 42 watt cfl. Organic soil with chicken manure, lime and oyster shell to help balance ph. I'm going to get one more 42 watt cfl will this be enough lighting? im only in a 1' x 1'x 2' little cabinet right now. The inside is lined with the dullside of tinfoil. Should they...
