me too man
what are you doing with your grow and are your plants toast?
You could try starting them with smaller lights, a few 26w CFLs (buy a pack of 2 for like $6) and they will run a lot cooler than the 250 and will be less intense. Also will save a little power. That 50w of light would be enough for the first few days until they are leafy and healthy then you can go to the 250w. Just an idea. Sometimes lights can be too intense but I think that's like lots and lots of HID I've never heard of that with CFLs

hahahahahaha niceeee dude! T5 thats whats up for seedlings. Aren't t5s usually a lot closer? I usually see them sitting like a foot from seedlings...
here I looked it up:
http://www.thcfarmer.com/forums/f5/how-close-can-t5s-seedlings-12017/
I found posts like...
Just stay on that stretch, your yield and plant health relies heavily on the main stem and if its stretched and lanky (into the future) you'll end up with airy buds. Tightly spaced nodes results in very dense, heavy, resinous buds
Also keep in mind that your plants will stretch out when you go to flower also
But yeah they look good dude, very healthy. I'd say you should be back on track now.

yeah i got it 13" from the seedlings tops. i have relised that the soil is making a big difrence i got 1 seedling in canna terra pro soil just for a experiment and they is quit a difrence ill show you
canna coco soil.......... canna terra pro ........canna coco soil
they all 4 days old
i can see a big difrenc
coco soil seedlings look nice and healthy the terra soil the seedlings leaves curling alredy abit and are half the size then the coco seedlings, i think canna terra pro its to storng for the babys, so say no to canna terra plus for seedlings!!!!!! say yes to canna coco!!!!
ill be getting some formulex for the seedlings soon

i just was wondering how does all the time cycle work, i mean im abit confused do you start counting the veg days sins the day the it sprout? becouse im planning to veg for 6 weeks when do i start counting them weeks?

Eh dude. I wouldn't really count on veg, you will be able to tell when YOU want to flower it. It isn't really a day thing.
6 weeks is when they become mature plants, showing pre-flowers. If you wait to flower them when they're mature you will end up with more yield I think. How much more yield, I'm not sure. It's just the idea of letting the plant getting 100% ready to flower before you flower it.
But basically when your in veg, your just getting the plant ready to flower. Your training it, and focusing on certain branches. Then the plant is growing a butt load of leafs, and new stems/budsites to get ready for flowering.
A plant in veg will grow about 2-3 times the size by the end of flowering. You also have to realize that when using CFL's the light doesn't really penetrate into the canopy like HID's do. So if your trying to grow a large&healthy plant you will need some side lights and shit.
Use the size, and the plants structure/health to decide when you want to go into flowering. If you really want to count the stages though, as I said before I would say the first fan leaf. Because thats when it goes from the structure of seedling to branching off with fan leafs and creating budsites.

WHITEFLY
Prevent: If there are whiteflies in your area, sticky traps will catch whiteflies quickly especially if colored yellow. Adult whiteflies are strongly attracted to the color yellow and will fly into traps before flying to your plant. Yellow paper covered in glue or sticky substance would work as well.
Identify: Whiteflies look like its bitty white moths, the adults have wings. The easiest method of detection is shaking limbs on your plants, if tiny moths fly away from under leaves you got some whiteflies. Eggs are also attached to the leaves along the underside. These pests also suck liquids from your plant much like the spider mite. Whiteflies begin attacking marijuana plants from the top down and prefer to attack the weakest plant available. If you only find whiteflies infesting the top of a single plant, you've caught an infestation as it begins. Leaf damage from the whitefly almost exactly mimic the damage caused by spider mite attacks. The further damage progresses, the more strength and vigor the plant will lose.
Eradicate
Repression: The whitefly is a difficult pest to control given that all the adults fly. The best slowing measure you can employ is yellow sticky traps placed around your plants then toss them when full. This will only control adults who leave eggs and larvae behind constantly, traps will not eradicate your whitefly problem.
Predators: Encarisa formosa is a species of miniature wasp that only attacks whiteflies. This small wasp does not attack humans and kills whitefly populations by laying eggs on whiteflies. When hatched, the wasp larvae eats its way through the whitefly, literally devouring it from the inside out. Slow and painful, just like they deserve. 2 predators per plant should do the trick if the infestation is caught before it becomes severe. Repeat every 2 weeks until 2 weeks after whiteflies cannot be spotted. Ensure you clean plants and grow area thoroughly if you have sprayed against mites or flies as these treatments will also kill this wasp.
Manual Removal: Perhaps Mr. Miyagi could catch them all with chopsticks. . . . but I don't recommend you try.
Spray: Easily smacked down with insecticidal soap, natural sprays, or pyrethrum. Prior to spraying, remove any leaves that are more than 50% damaged and burn them. If you can't start a fire anywhere, heating them to excess of 140F/60C will do the trick. Whiteflies die easily, however they lay eggs prolifically and love re-infecting damaged plant matter. Apply spray against the whitefly at 5 to 10 day intervals until 10 days after whiteflies have not been detected.
