Hi, I started growing earlier this year and I think i'm finally catching on. I have one plant that was planted on 3/20, and i have 9 more 5/25

I have a 400watt HPS light, 12/12 light cycle. Distilled water only. Cheap dirt from the store. I spray the leaves with diet tonic water.

The light is too far away as the plants are just growing up mainly bring the light down a little

stop spraying with tonic water!!! That has as much corn syrup in it as a coke, I would think it will suffocate the leaves with the residue left on it. What are you feeding them?

regular tonic water has high fructose corn syrup. i use diet tonic water, which doesnt have that.

I have A 430W HPS (Son Agro) setup and my plants tops are about 16" away from the top. Once I moved it closer, growth improved insanely. Hope this helps.

Oh, and have you started feeding nutes yet? Might need to start that soon since your soil is probably drained of all the goods!

that tonic water diet or not is leaving a residue on the leaves, making it harder for transpiration to occur, honestly your plants look bad. You should stop with the tonic water!!

Okay. I'll lower the light and stop using the tonic spray.

I started giving the 3/20 one nutes. i gave about 1/4th of what the directions said to. 10.15.10 nutrients.
