Space Bomb

I'm growing a strain of space bomb and I started out my seedling under a 600w MH. When should I lower the light? When should I give it nutes? I started it out in cocogro. Can someone please help me? Any tips are welcome kiss-ass

Personally I use 3x 250w CFL's as you can move the bulbs next to the plants to give maximum light but minimum heat during veg stage. Then I swap one CFL bulb for a 250w HPS bulb to promote exta light during flower stage.
A friend of mine keeps he's 600w about half way up to stop heat stress on the leaves and the seedling. Make sure you have plenty of ventilation or heat control will be you main problem. One set of leaves are called nodes, I start giving nutes on the forth or fifth set by that time the seedling should have established a root system and matured enough for low level nuteing. Cocogro is top stuff it has everything a seedling needs to start. Hope this helps.

Personally I would start off with that 600 as far away as possible until they get to about 8" then drop it a few inches daily till ur about 14 inch from canopy. You just starting one seed with that mighty bright light? I don't deal with seeds. But for cuttings I just use a single 250w cfl with a homemade double parabola reflector to light my 4x2 clone box. Babys don't need to be pounded with light, just to be convinced that is light 20 hours a day. Watch ur temps aswell stretching is caused by high temps and the last thing u want is massive internodal spacing. As for nutes. Wait till you see signs of vigorous root growth before using nutes. Allways feed with 1ml/L of 50% H2O2. Hope this helps
