Here's my pic today. I raised the lights up a little bit, and I'm thinking of hitting them with a small shot of Fox Farms Grow Big either tonight or tomorrow. Thanks for stopping by.

Thanks Growman! Glad to have you on board. I'm loving this hobby so far. Already looking forward to my next grow, and I'm not even through my first one yet!

Its fun isnt it? Theres so much personal pride that comes with growing your own smoke
You got that right! As a home-brewer I love producing a good quality homemade beer. Now I get to produce good quality homegrown smoke! Homemade beer and bud. Life is good man.

Does anyone have any ideas why my leaves are starting to look like this...

Over-watering maybe? I did give it some "Grow Big" yesterday at a rate of 1/2 tsp per gallon of water.

Well it appears the Grow Big is working its magic as my plants appear to have grown. However, I am still moderately concerned about the color and weird way the new leaves are growing. I wonder if maybe it's a temperature issue? I have my tent in the basement where it's fairly cool. Lights on temp is running around 68 degrees, and lights out temp is running around 60 degrees. A 1500-watt space heater is not an option, and that's what most of them seem to run. I did find a 750-watt heat fan, but that still seems like a fairly large current draw on my circuit. I'll give it a few more days and see if it gets any better. I did add two 26-watt, 2700K CFL's today. I didn't figure it would hurt anything, but someone let me know if I'm wrong about that. Anyhow, here's the pics for today...

my opinion is your about 10 degrees to low on and off and you want the low k rating for budding which lowryder should start around 2 to 3 weeks old you will want no smaller than 3 gal pots 5 would be best for auto flower not the gospel just my exp. best of luck!

Hey thanks for the feedback, ganjaman. I feel like my temps are too low too. Any ideas of how to raise it up a little? Another idea I'm kicking around is a reptile cage heat lamp. You have any thoughts or experience with that?
