newbie grower how are my plants doing?

They are streched, you need to drop the light closer to them. whats your temp ? and humidity ? what kind of light u using ? what have u been feeding them ? and how often ?

They look really yellow for such young plants. What type of soil are you using?

hi, the yellow look is the camera flash, they are nice and green. im using all purpose compost for vigorous growth and strong root development. and watering every 2 days with natural mineral water. im using a 150w.halogen light. 42% humidity and 62F

Might be a stupid question, what are the little tubes in the pots for?

150w halogen? I don't know too much about halogen grow lights or how close they have to be....but those babies are reaching for the sky...try re burying the stems and move the light closer...but not too close to burn them

the tubes just telling me the name of the plants. ok thanks for the help ill do that now

halogen light !!!!

please don't .. not made for plant grow .. wrong Kelvin .. to hot .. wont provied enough light at the distance you need to keep em from the plants ..

get some tubes or a CLF ..



or even better a MH/HPS




and please do some research ..

+1 to the above post. Halogen lights aren't for growing. Explains why she's so small for a week and so stretchy. She's looking for real light!

1) Don't use Halogen... Get CFLs if heat is an issue, or MH/HPS. 2) I personally wouldn't use mineral water... distilled or reverse osmosis is the way to go in my opinion 3) They're stretched to high heaven. My plants are 15 days old.. take a look https://www.rollitup.org/newbie-central/563703-2-weeks-old-how-they.html 4) I'd raise your temp from 62 degrees (That's pretty low) to around 75-80 degrees.. they are a weed, they like the moist heat. (your rH is fine).. and 5) I wouldn't use auto-flower seeds, by the time they start flowering (with this set up) you'll maybe have one node/tier.. lol :/

they look terrible

That's constructive...

But to OP, read my previous post..

For a cheap way to try and revive them plants... Get about 3-5 24w CFLs over them, a few inches away (to prevent further stretching)..

i can't be constructive for someone who hasn't taken the time to read a little.................................he asked how they look

thanks for the advice. with these conditions will they not flower?

If it does you'll be lucky to get a few grams. Do the research, do it right. Otherwise you're just wasting time and seed.

Thanks for the advice I changed my lights and got some circulation in the room. see what you think after 2 weeks
