Im using a 400 watt hps, it was at one foot but 3 days ago i put it at a foot and a half. Im watering about 10 ounces every 3 days. plants are very young, about 9 days old.

the only problem i can tell is the hps being too close to the seedling. a ft and a half is usually where the light is from flowering plants. move it up a little more....i would suggest u get some cfl's or floro's for ur veg. They also sell Metal Halide conversion bulbs for the hps.

really, you dont think the sodium could do it. One of those plants i described just had a wonderful two days though. The other one not so much, its growing much slower and is smaller. ill get a pick.
