that peat pot is gonna screw with your ph in that soil... for future nute burn

your lights are fixed thats not gonna go well with growing plants

to my blog: https://www.rollitup.org/Journal/Entry/a-collection-of-diy-ghetto-blasters.30154/

keep them bulbs 1-2 inches of the leaves

good luck

Yeah imma change pots here soon. Any suggestions on type of pot i like the fabic ones that let it get air but idk and as far as fixed light i know this is noob ish but i dont know exactly what that means.. Also so i should lower the lights closer to it ???

those air pots are grand...but pricey in places

raise them plants up to the lights to one inch or so

I use dvd covers

good luck

There are "smart pots on amazon for cheap, they are pretty nice. What soil are you using?
Your lights are too far away right now, you will want them within 4'' during veg and then around 1'' during flowering. To do this you will need to move your lights as your plants grow and right now your lights are fixed to the wall.
