One week under the Migro light. They got a little stressed at first but after raising the light a little they seem happy enough now. Light at 50% power.
Migro Aray 120w

At 50% power the migro still probably produces more than twice the light the cfl produced and it's all aimed down without anything blocking it.

Ya you're right and the seedlings seem to love it!

Cold temperatures have screwed me again. 48 hours of 20c and they get stressed, purple stems, fan leaves dying.
Does anyone know if calmag helps this problem?

Your plants look fine to me
20°C - I don't think that's too cold.
These plants below get to min of around 8°C lights off, slowly rising in temperature to a max of ~ 22°C lights on.
The pots are on a heatmat that keeps the roots warm.
This is the colour they look like under the indoor light spectrum, they look a bit yellowish
But took outside under natural daylight they're uber green.
I've vegging plants in an attic with canopy temps around 8 -10°C Also on a heatmat doing fine.
How far away is the light from the plants?

They look perfect! Not a blemish.
It may have dipped lower than 20c. I'll try get a pic under natural light in a few minutes. Definitely getting purple stems, droopy and discoloured lower leaves on one plant.
I lost a few over Christmas from cold temperatures. I definitely need a better medium. Trying to get some bio bizz all mix and light mix. I've been using multi purpose store bought without perlite.

I gave it a small dose of Bio Bizz Bio grow nutrients for the first time. Had just been using Dutch pro A+B

The growth is completely different with the Migro Aray compared to the CFLs. Short and bushy with small internode spacing.
I realised yesterday that my water PH was 8.5. I don't know how I thought I could get away without testing it. Another lesson.

I've had the light at 100% power for a week. They all seem pretty happy.

Struggling a bit for the last couple of days. I think it's calcium deficiency. Just fed some pH 6.5water with added calcium. Fingers crossed.

Doubled all nutrients and they're actually bouncing back quite well. The light is definitely excellent. Me as a grower? Not so much

Wow....My goal in life.....I'm hoping for about that weight too but I got two 1/2 months to go stillI have diy 320w fixture. I've only completed two grows with it. One pheno hunt in soil and then one plant grow. The first grow was only about 200g, but the single plant was a pound. Now I have two plants going. Hoping for over 300g, but there's a month to go. Plenty of time to fuck up the grow

Bro Never Start again....the only people you messed your plants up too are the people on this forum....You know how many Long-Time "supposedly" expert growers on here told me I should start all over....I don't know what I'm doing blah blah...because they don't understand you get more bud if all of your plant is under the light.....your plants look....ok.... I don't know that doubling the nutrients are going to help you....I found that using less of something until my plants fully recover is helpful. If you look at my signature and my journal you'll see that I truly fawked up my plants...like drowned them and tortured them for an entire month...to the brink of death...started over with the exact same plants...and wola!I destroyed my plants. Ill have to start again
