These pics were taken about 3-4 hours apart. The true leaves are slowly coming out. The remain cotyledon has curled under, but he stem is straight, so i am assuming it is just reacting to the stress. Little fine hairs have formed on the stem.

Hi, thanks for the pics and the posting. It seems a touchy question when discussing lighting. I`m new to this so I am sincerely curious as to the overall differences if any, between CFL`s and the HPS or MH and the effect of the overall yield and quality of the plants. I know there are expense issues but I really wouldn`t care to get into that. I would simply enjoy reading the examples of these lighting systems by someone who has actually used them both or even more such as these LED`s that people are trying out.

Look at yields of peoples set ups. =)

CFLs can produce a decent yield, but you have to rearrange them often (or add more cfls) to get the best results.

The MH and HPS produce a good yield because they penetrate the canopy well. The light doesnt diminish by distance as fast as it does with CFLs. Ballasts for MH and HPS are expensive tho.

I decided to cover the seedling with a vented dome. The humidity in the house is 16%!! I tried getting my furnace humidifier to work, but to no avail.

Now she is sitting at 50% humidity. Hopefully I see an increase in her growth rate.

I've been researching the Mazar strain, apparently the seedlings grow pretty slow. From other grows I have seen, it takes about 2 weeks for the second set of true leaves to show.

I gave an 1/4 dosage of Alaska Fish Fert tonight. It was given to my first set of seedlings at this age. It never burnt them.

The seedlings are still under 24hr light.

*sigh* She grow so slow!!! I wish there was more to report.

I am definitely growing more than one seed when I run the FCJ.

Ms. Flame from what I have read and seen around, deep bass music and angry music have negative impact on plants. Plants tend to like more softer music, but that's only what I read so I might be wrong.

I finally got the mini tent set up for her. Temps are now steady at 81.

She looks like she might be trying to push out her second set of leaves.
