Thanks everyone for all the help and advice. I'll give the traumatized starts I have in there now a couple of days, and if at least three don't start gorwing I am starting fresh with a something of a clue now thanks to you all. PEACE

LOL. Thanks legal, I got that one down too. All good I think now. After I realized that I was probably really f'ing with them, I flushed the cups with water adjusted to 6.6 pH with the stuff you use for aquarium water. If I run out of that I am going to start hording lemons...:twisted:

Thanks bigragu. Someone else told me to invest in some good soil... I just might do that. I am 100% committed to not committing ganjacide on the next batch :)

Also, the lower fan was flipped to become an exhaust. Does anyone think I will still need passive intake with the cab open? THANKS YOU

Ok, so this being the general set up for the seedling/cup stage, with the only thing being that I should add a fan out front to blow on the plants I guess...? I am still getting temps of about 83 F at the cup. Am I going to fry my impressionably little tarts? bad breakup sorry...

Green Cross, thanks a lot for your advice. I am going to run the lights at half strength. I will also look into adding organics to the mix. If I scrap my current sprout and start fresh, should I just start with a mix that has some organics in it rather than transplanting to a different one...

Thanks a lot. It's wierd, I am feeling a little more confident now, just like you said. Are you an evil genious? LOL jk, OK I think I am starting to get it somewhat. One thing, someone else said that I should turn off some the lights as the seedlings don't need all that. Basically I would...

Ok, I should get a small fan so I can lower them then probably. Thanks

Ok, sounds good, thanks a lot for the complients and advice. How about the whole distance from the plants with the heat aspect? Any help much appreciated. Thanks.

I guess there are a couple of other pieces of info I can include. 1.) the first time around the pH of my water was probably over 8.5. This time it was too, but I flushed it with some at 6.6 with a *tiny" bit of fish fertilizer in it. I do not know why I did this, it just seemed cool. Actually...

Anyway, I would just like to say hello and thank you in advance. If you can help me you will be my proverbial "daddy," and I will gladly send you some bud if this all works out. This is going to be a long post because I want to be clear on where I am at and what I am looking for. So if you don't...

Thanks everyone for their input. I lowered the lights a lttle bit, but really want to do that slowly as the plants get a little stronger. This is b/c of the heat, it is already about 82 F under just three of my ten lights. I wonder what it will be like when they are all on. Also, I am going to...

Ok, this is my first time really growing anything from a seed, pot or otherwise. I am not a dummy, but have successfully killed my first batch of seedlings, and am looking to see if anyone can add anything to what I have learned from that experience. These seeds germinated in damp towels and...
