Hi Guys ... I've started my first grow (White Widow) after reading Cervantes' bible cover to cover and a few web site grow guides, and 5 days after sprouting I have long skinny stalks with almost no growth in the past two days. Photo attached.
Conditions are: 400W MH lamp 24" away (closest I can get to keep temp at seedlings at 79F ... room thermostatted at 72F); no nutes yet but using Schultz premium pottting soil (2/3 with 1/3 vermiculite, soil is 12-7-9) in peat pots; soil pH measures 6.7; moisture meter used to water (every other day); light schedule 18/6; small oscillating fan near top of room to avoid too much movement or drying out of seedlings; mist with distilled water about twice/day as humidity is low (40-45% typically).
Seedlings are about 3" tall now but look the same as 2 days ago, very whimpy stalks and very slow growth. Anything obvious to cause this? Thanks!
