Danky_Dank..... You're in need of more light (wattage) in the flowering spectrum (under 4K). The LED panel you are using is not of sufficent wattage or spectrum for flowering. It's fine to start or for clones, but a single LED grow panel will not get you thru to the finish. Adding the CFL is helpful, but what color spectrum is it ?
.
You need at least 125 - 150 watts of CFL (a little more would not hurt) in the 4k & under spectrum to get them to finish properly. Soil grows should be kept, between 6 and 6.8 pH for best results.
Only water, when your soil is dry at least an inch down and go easy on the ferts - autoflowering types don't do well if overfertilized.
.
Hope this helps....
Keep it Real....Organic.....

thats good numbers

LOL nah you didnt tell me nothin you mean about the misting:roll: i new about that but dangreen advised me not to do it too often cause of over watering. But hey i did notice on my hygrometer once after i misted the tent the humidity shoots way up and the inside temperture of the tent does go down to an optimal % but only for a short preiod of time like 5 minutes.
