Looks light your lights are burning the plant. The foil is not as good as mylar, or that shiny stuff thats on the back of car windsheid visors (that silver shit) 27 watts that close does emit some heat, so watch your distance. make sure you got a timer going at around 20/4 (20 on 4 off) for your lighting. Keep learning and pass the buck. My best advice, if you get any smoke off the first grow, you did really well. If not, well, learn, change and repeat. It is a weed, its not that hard LOL

Thanks for all the help guys.

-Now I have 2 x 27 Watt 5500k Daytime Lights
-Do I need both at this point?

This question made me laugh. Dude you need alot more. In fact your better off getting a even a 100 or 70 watt hps street light assembly. You are not going to get shit with that set up there. You got some major, major issues. To grow weed you need air, light, and water. I pray to God you have water, but that also means that's the only thing you got out of the equation. I think i could get something out of 54 watts. i know that sounds cocky, but I think i could. It would be tough though. When I say something, I'm talking like 5 grams, haha!


Heres some ideas, get an old power supply from a cheap as computer, or an old piece of shit in the basement. The 80mm fans are great for stealth grows. Then go to home depot or wally world and get some 24 inch flouro fixtures 15-20 watts at least if you can. there are two bulbs in most,and they are cheap. buy as many as you can afford, but dude I've seen that shit for like 10 bucks for 2x15watt fixtures. mount that shit above the plants. I mean if you get like 60-120 watts above them preferably in the sub 3000 wave range, it might get you a quarter. For a little grow though, sometimes it's just cool to grow you own chronic!

good luck, you're gonna need it;-)

if ur not insanely short on money, i'd replace one with a higher wattage veg light in a week or so. but in my opinion those two lights is straight for this part of your grow in my opinion, and only when it gets some bigger leaves and spreads out a bit do you need to add another light, and i'd only add one, and maybe make it a flower light (2700k), to mix spectrums. BUT if ur not insanely short on money, i'd replace one with a higher wattage veg light in a week or so
plus then u already have one of ur flowering lights, and only need around 3 or 4 more, depending on how big u let ur plant get
anyhow, for the time being two is fine, keep it up!

Here is an update of the size.
I notice dark green leafs but also notice some turning brown like in the pictures.
The light is a solid 2" away from her.
I was running a 24/0 light cycle for 3 days and as of last night I started a 20/4 light cycle.

I've never, ever, EVER , seen anything like that man. That's a little ass girl. She does look chronic though, lol. Fucking amazing dude! I gotta give you a perserverance award.
 
All I say is get rid of the foil its at best 35% to 55% reflective, I recommend getting a roll of mylar its 98% reflective and does not wrinkle or create hot spots. Its pretty cheap to I got a roll of it on ebay for like $20 including shipping. Next I would recommend keeping the light about 10 to 18 inches above the plant to keep it growing straight up
