Hey everyone,
I'm in need of some help from some of the more experienced growers around !
So I'm currently growing a Hindu Kush plant from seed from Ontario's Best Seed Company. I'm growing in a smaller grow box with CFL lighting. I have a pH test kit and have pH'd my water and the runoff from the soil so as to get an estimated soil pH. The temps in my box are a bit high but nothing terrible range from (81 - 90) depending on the weather. The RH% runs in and around 40 - 45%. I think thats enough back information if not please feel free to ask for more. On to my problem....
So my plant is roughly a week old (counting from when it sprouted above soil) And its starting to grow rather oddly. What I mean is that the leaves are all starting to grow almost upwards. Its hard to explain, easier to see in a picture. So I'm going to post a few pics. I'll put a comment after each.
First up is the plant in question and you can see exactly what I'm talking about in this pic.
Notice how its growing up and not in a stretching for light kinda way as the lights are no more than 1.5 - 2 inches away.
Same thing just a bit more clear and a closer.
The final picture I'm going to post is a COMPLETELY different Plant. However the reason I'm posting this pic is to show that its not my environment thats causing the problem as this plant is growing right beside my Oddity.
Thats my bagseed growing right beside the Kush.
The only other thing I neglected to mention about my setup is that these little plants have a clear plastic cup over them that I mist a few times a day just to help keep the humidity up.
Hope that sums it all up and I hope someone can come up with an answer for me, even if its not to worry and it'll sort itself out.
Thanks,
