Maybe cut a back on the nutes a little the recommended amount usually isn't what's needed as you seen. Try 1/4 or less for what's recommended. Also if you haven't already pH balance your water. I do 5.7-5.8 for mine but 5.5 - I'd say 6.0 others may disagree but imo is where you should try and be depending on strain and medium. What lights are you using, nutes, your set up, whatever info you can give would help others to know how to give proper advice to you. Ima beginner as well but I'm 2-3 weeks away for harvesting my first crop, so that's a plus. From a beginner to beginner enjoy it, there are gonna be fuck ups but don't be discouraged use the signs to your advantage and learn.

I do feed mine with nutes once I have 2 true leave which no more then 2 weeks, but others have burned some up to 4 weeks. I am a huge fan of anything GH understanding there are other products out there, I have had really good success so far with anything GH. Temps are difficult for me to mine stay 78-82 it's summer time shit happens just don't let it get crazy make sure you have got air circulation. Everything else sounds legit you may want strong lights during flower though if you hadn't planned that already. These should be done within 10-12 weeks assuming there's no drastic stresses. Everything looks good though, from my experience it's all about time(patience) and a good eye. Watch for those stress signs like the burned leaves and just enjoy it. If others reply you may hear do this and that or people really giving good advice but the best thing I learned was as I did it. I read a ton and still do but nothing works like just doing. Enjoy these next few weeks I know I did.

Yea for sure i been reading so much my eyes hurt haha and im really into it as far as the burn it was my mistake i poured it over the limit a bit but a lil nute burn people say wont hurt its growth only is ita drastic and yea i got cfl with red spec for flower 100wat each and i also have 4 it looks like its growing good the last plant died as a seedling on me :/ i guess it just wasnt strong enough because this only looked healthy from the start the other one was droopy and looked bad from the beginning but all plants are diffrent they say

I dont wanna say some seeds are weaker I'd rather say a small few if your getting them from reputable places for seeds. I haven't had any problems with all the seeds I received, it was my fault if it didn't make it. One problem I did run into in my first seedling sprouts was having to weak of a light to far away. I planted 4, 3 made it one stretched to much and and couldn't support itself and fell over. Being new I thought it was gone so I tossed it after going through the rest of my grow I think I should have did something to try and save it seeing how strong and resilient these plants are. I'm glad the other one made it through for you and is looking good. I would just say look into the indoor growing section and look under the cfl/ flourescent light section to learn a little more I use LEDs so I'm nowhere near qualified to say anything about your lights but I'm sure the people in that section are and they might be able to tell you if you may need more lights, strong lights, or just keep rockin.
