Do These Look Fine To You?

[KleptoSmokes]

So, first grow. So paranoid about it, lmao. Moving them outdoors sooner or later.

Anyways, do these look fine so far?

They look like they need more light.
they all got the gangsta lean.
get them outside asap id say.

 

[mimmen]

It look's overwatered and you need to lower your light to prevent the streaching thats going on. See how short my sprouts stay.

 

[KleptoSmokes]

I've been keeping them in the dark. Someone I know told me to until they got a little bigger, guess that's not reliable. Lol. Thanks, Will be moving outside tomorrow or the day after.

You should add more dirt to your cups too. When you add the dirt bury some of that stem. It won't support the weight of fan leaves, and is focusing too much energy on trying to reach the light.

Plants need light to grow.
Put those suckers under some lights. cfl's if your just gunna be moving them outside anyways.

Sounds like someone was trying to sabotage you. Light to plants islike oxygen to humans.

 

[KleptoSmokes]

I've added more dirt to the cups. They are in my window sill getting more sunlight then they were. But, its raining so the suns not fully out.

 

[mimmen]

one 23 watt daylight cfl will grow a sprout for 2 weeks.

 

[KleptoSmokes]

well now i got one 23w and one that's bigger. I dont know the wattage though.

 

[mimmen]

Those will work, keep them withen a 1.5 inch or less. Make sure you have a small fan blowing over the bulbs.

Yep Mimmem is right the stretching occuring cause they are seeking light n a fluorecent will work just fine get one thats blue spectrum or cool whiteGood luck!!

 

[KleptoSmokes]

I got 2 nice white lights now. With a fan blowing on them. Thanks for all of your help!~

No problem, before I started growing I spent months reading and gathering growing information. You get out of it what you put into it. Take the time to learn and as you grow pay close attention to the things you do. What works for some, may not work for you. It can be an incredibly rewarding hobby, put in the time. Good Luck!

I spent a good month or so reading information. I believe i took what the person told me wrong, so it's my fault. I'm going to put a picture up of what the plants look like now. They have changed already from what they were. The leaves grew a little on the top, and now they are much livelier.

 

[KleptoSmokes]

Alright, So here are some pictures. As you can tell, the little girls are doing much better with the light. (No shit ;D ) Then, there's the ghetto set up. I didnt invest any money for an indoor grow, b/c im moving them outside. Thanks again for your help guys.

I would try to replant those, leaving only an inch of the stem exposed. That wispy stem will be taxed once they start to grow leaves.

 

[Rcb]

yea i would bury those as much as possible

 

[puffntuff]

When you take it outside bury it up to almost the first set of leaves. Tie that fucker down and repeat. You'll be fine. I know alot of people that stretch their seedlings just so they can bury them once they transplant.

I replanted them. All went pretty well.
