Week 1 went alright,the seedling doom was getting a little hot 90-95 F, week 2 took the doom of and it was a little cooled like 70 F .. humidity 20% so I got the humidifier and heat lamp, brought the the temp to 80 F and humidity around 50%. But as you can see my major problem was my lower leafs were going yellow on the tips. But I'm pretty sure thats fertilizer burn I started feeding them to early and I was misting the same fertilizer water on them oops lol I think there gonna be all right I gave them a good flush

Ill keep updating

For flowering I have a different box with 12, T5, 54w High Output fluorescents and 2, T8, 32w Black lights.. Ill post some pics, I hope its going to work for flowering. The company that sells them say there great for budding, lol probably BS.

t5s are what I'm using now and what I learned is that quantity is crucial. If im not mistaken, the light penetration on them is less than an HPS so its better to do sog?

Depending on your local law inforcement be carefull with HPS. T5s are great if HPS is not an option. If you go HPS do it propa!
