First Small Grow

damn man, the grow is sounding amazing, i got way behind been busy with shit the passed few days. But good to see you're able to upgrade, soon i will too, with funds coming in, ill be set in a month or so.
 
Will this light work better than the ones that I have right now? Or is it about the same?

It's soft white, which is 2700k. you can tell by the color. The red/orange lights are for flowering and the really bright white for veg. The following rule applies with mh/hps. I think that lamp would be good though. I would place one of those reflectors directly above the plant about 2 inches with a fan of course.
 
Would a soft whit light work? My nabors next door have a bunch of them that they said that I can use.

My plant looks like it is diying

Looks light your over watering it. Yes, the lights you have will work,but 6500k is more ideal for thick vegative growth. Make sure you only water when the top crusts over and the itself feels light.
 
I thought that might be the problem. Now I will wait a couple of days befor I water agion. I was just about to water it
 
You should wait at least 3 days then check it. As the plant grows it will suck up water faster. What size pot is it in? Is that a coffee can?
 
Will you be able to transplant it out of that can and into a bigger one within a week or 2, because you will need to transplant soon.
 
Here is what I got. Would I beable to us the larger Coffee can also?

The pot is great, but he soil is no good unless you plan on not adding any nutes, because the soil contains slow realease. The slow realese makes it harder to add nutes later when they need it. Alos, your plant is small and is at risk of nute burm with slow realease.


I also attached a picture of one of my babies with nute burn from slow realease.

That is true. I got a little bit of nut burn on one of my leaves. But it was only on the tip of one leaf and no were else
 
Hve you used that soil yet? If not return it and get organic soil that says feed after 2 weeks of planting. This would be ideal.
