Default First Time Grow Advice?
First time grow with bag seeds, been looking at the site for weeks finally postin. Had 5 seeds germinate with a few good sprouts, but had to go away for a weekend with my family so i had little time to water them. Since then 4 have died and i have one sprout looking healthy and under 150-200watts worth of CFL's with an aluminum baking sheet as a light hood, 24/0. Two regular fans for ventalation, 2 gallon pot with organic fertilizer, and a portable wardrobe from target for $22. Any advice for a newb, maybe on light cycle, ventilation, fertilizer, watering? Thinking aboutmaybe doing a SCROG (does size of hole in screen matter?) or LST for more yield, but really just looking for headstash...

Never give nutes to new seedlings. They do not need nutes because the seeds they came from hold a small amount of nutes for them to live off of and if you feed them you will burn them and you will likely kill them.

I do not know if that is what did in your seedlings or if it was a lack of water but never feed seedlings. Some people say wait 2 to 3 weeks, others say 3 to 4 weeks and some will say 4 to 5 weeks. I prefer to play it safe and go 4 to 5 weeks in most cases. Regardless when you do begin to feed your plants use a weak solution, like a ¼ solution and then as you feed more later up the mixture until you are feeding them the nutes as the instructions say, as in a full mixture.

Maybe it should have been called a puddle of green.
