My first grow, decided on a PC setup.

Hey guys just another little update. Nothing to new to speak of, I fear she is definitely a little behind in size for this day mark, however I think she looks fairly good. There are definitely more leaf sets starting to take off now. The only minor issue I see is a LITTLE bit of purple or brownish color around the very edge or rim of some of the leaves. You can sort of see it in the pics. Ideas??

Ordering my Fox Farms nutrients tonight and going to start her on small doses at the 21 or 28 day mark and see what happens. More updates to come. Peace!

Hey everyone, at 3 weeks exactly since the seed went in the dirt. I definitely know she is behind, but she is definitely still growing...albeit slowly. I know she is growing because new leaf sets are still starting to sprout, although it is kind of hard to see in the pics. My main concern is still the yellowness of some of the leaves, and the brown edges. The PH meter I had when I first started the grow turned out to be garbage and not working properly, so I am without one until the new one gets here from Amazon. I hope it works better.

Can anyone give me some thoughts or opinions on the spottiness of the leaves? Would be greatly appreciated.

My Fox Farm Nutes will be here on Wednesday and I am debating whether or not I should give her a TINY amount yet, or wait it out a little more..

Along with my nutes I ordered some Fox Farms soil as well that I am thinking about experimenting a new seed in and see what the difference is. My adjustable ratchet grow light hangers will be here with the order as well, so I will be able to hang my 150W HPS and get them ready in my closet. If I can ever get this little lady up and growing bigger, I will post some pics of my closet that is going to do the bulk of the vegging and the flowering, it is all ready to go. For now I am focused on trying not to lose her lol.

Any thoughts are appreciated, thanks guys!

Generally, every problem starting from the outside is burn from over fertilization and what starts from inside of the leaf is deficiency (i say again, very general rule).
To me it seems as burn from exrta nutrients (i'm not so experienced). Maybe the soil you used is too strong for seedlings. Why don't you try to sprout one in one of those little cubes?
Try to read a lot more about plant nutrient needs and how to achieve it with organics.
This may help
