Temps looks a little high... What is your exhaust? Are those CFL's 2700°K or 6500°K? Are you using CFL's for the entire grow? If so you should be using 2700°K for flowering and 6500°K CFL's for veg. Sorry for all the questions lol

Im no expert in CFL's so please correct me if I am wrong...

You could get more light onto your plant if you tilt all your lights 90 degrees. I read somewhere on this forum that a CFL bulb produces more light coming from its side then from the tip. So if you put it horizontal to your pot, then you can get more lumens on your plant.

you guys have any clue on when i should start my nutes? and what strength and if i should use all three bottles or just the micro and grow until flowering? thanks everyone

Just the micro and grow until flowering. I would start off at 1/4 strength in the next few days

I wouldnt take any advice from me if I were you... Just burnt the shit out of my plant. Hopefully it recovers.

But I know, when growing in soil, about 4 weeks into veg is good. And even then, its like once every 3-4th watering.

Whatever the bottle says to use I would use 1/4 or 25 percent of that to start so that you won't burn the plant
