3 day old seedlings doing well last night dropped 600 w MH 2 feet from 4 feet in hopes of faster growth. Plants responded unfavorably with slight curled leaves, no dead spots. My question is do you think a 24/0 light cycle would do better for healing than 18/6? I'll start a journal when I can...

Those look GREAT to me man, what size pots are you using and what kinda soil and how much water are you giving them. LOL questions questions

LOL, I did I think I was stressin that first day, I just have the MH like 4 feet away from em and I've got 5 shoots green and nice looking, the ICE and SNOW white is the front runners now and the 2 WIDOW's, and one indoor mix, are behind. I fucked up the CRYSTAL by diggin in the soil and I...

LOL thanks man that's exactly what I did the day after EXACTLY. I have my ballast on a guitar stand outside and it's just warm now, and I have a BOX fan on setting pne blowing out the door. LOL thanks man.

Anyone know the amount of pounds to gallon with soil?

Damn, my 600 watt lamp is raising the temperature to like 90, I just watered my soil like 2 hours ago and the top is already dry, and my ballast could fry an egg. I'm going to burn my place down as well as kill these plants. I need to find a solution, I turned off my lights and going to sleep...

Ah but honestly I'll probably just spend the money on 2 50 watt CFL's if it's iffy..

Can I be alright burning 22 watt CFL's, I really don't want to spend anymore $$ on lights right now and these are all I got... What I've done is taken my 600w MH and hung it about 5 feet from the soil and hung 2 CFL's 11w like 6 in from soil. The seeds were just planted and havn't even broken...

I could use gloves, but yeah I'll just plant it like you guys say

Aight, It's a weed after all

Hey, one of my seeds that I germinated has a root that is growing the same way as the sprout and I was just wondering how can I get it to come around so I can plant it with root downwards. Can I pull it over without breaking it off or should I just plant it and turn on my cfl's so it will reach...

Epigenetics- is in my own words the turning on and off of certain genes. Say you have a set of identical twins, they are genetically identical at birth, however the things that they do will turn on and off specific genes throughout their lifespan, making them more and more different as they age...

Oh man, I'm an idiot. Okay it's been awhile but I just realized that I was using 10-10-10 fertilizer as my only medium. No soil! The guy at the nursery was an idiot too, I was trying to explain to him I needed a 3 nute soil, 30-15-15 and all they had was 10-10-10 and he gave me fertilizer only...

Okay I've changed my soil out. I can see how it was really muddy and compact. So I'll just water it with a sprayer like said before. Should I water it before or after I plant them or does it matter?

So then at this stage, if all seeds need are heat, then I should be fine with a MH from start or should I get a 100w cfl for some reason? In other words, the MH will provide my heat and light from sprout to end of veg. My light is 600w and I have it 2 feet away with an open closet with blanket...
