As well as the test above, Air, your suggestion to water with no nutes paid off, no more fert burns have occurred since the earlier pic so thanks for the tip!

on my tester its in the green zone.... 8-10 is in the red. I did say that I have been letting my soil dry out to 2 before watering and watering until its around the 7 mark... I did leave them a little longer to dry out more as a test earlier in the week but found that ALL the leaves...

Hey, don't mean to sound nasty to your little baby but I would seriously consider starting from scratch again. I had this problem with my first attempt and I eventually found this procedure the best way forward for me. Germinate seed by placing in between 4 sheets of kitchen towel that has...

soon as they have sprouted about 5mm, plant them in soil that has already been watered and drained well... only about 2mm of soil over top of seed casing and with root sprout obvioulsy pointing downwards... inm y short experience, i've found putting them under indirect light at this stage...

sounds like my set up is very similar to yours... and im about 25 days into my first successful grow... your light is cool for 2 plants i reckon in that size set up, i'm using a blue 200w envirolite for vegetative and switching to red for flowering later on but i'm growing shiva for my first...

Read previous message first... these are the leaves underneath (have lifted larger leaves so you can see the new baby leaves underneath which are in shade for the most part)

Well, leaves are still dropping near the bottom, I'm not overwatering as I tested them a few days ago by not wartering for a longer period of time and by the evening all leaves had drooped... after watering, the upper leaves picked up... I'm thinking it may be a light issue as there are a lot of...

good tips and great link mogie... cheers

yeah i don't hav ea great deal of heaight so may have to tip later... any advice on tipping would be handy... cheers guys

like i said mines real small at the moment and i'm only using a single envirolite at the moment but am really pleased with the results so far, there are pictures in my gallery which are recent or you can check my grow journal which i'm updating on a regular basis... i long for the day when they...

at what stage should i need to clip my plants? they are only small at the moment anbutd getting quite bushy underneath... do i need to prune them in order to give more life to the rest of the plant? If so, what do i do and where do i clip? typical newbie question no doubt but i am a first...

i've decided i'm gonna wait till flower time... :-) what will be will be... besides... i've only got two plants growing... :-s

yeah? cool, thanks man, really appreciate it... it has seemed like a lot of hard work getting her (cross fingers) looking this healthy really... still, no pain, no gain i guess!

B.e.a.utiful!

Well here she is... have backed off on nutes for a while as i think she suffered some burns on her lower leaves on first adding nutes (this even at only quarter strength) I guess the soil had a lot of nutes already and i know that vermiculite holds nutrients quite well. I am learning a lot on...

I wouldn't have a crop if it weren't for mogies advice either! I added nutes at quarter strength and the edges of my older 4 leaves burnt, so i would personally go even weaker... maybe 1/6 strength but don't addf them until your a couple of weeks in... Thanks Mogie for your advice on...

OK - may have to try that then, except, because of my cold climate here i'm using a 24 hour veg cycle... shouldn't matter though huh?

put them under light straight away buddy... i made the mistake of not putting them under light and my first two died... my third one i put under light and its doin really well... just don't put it under direct light!

i seeeeeeeeee... can u do that then? successfully? never even considered it...

Thanks for the compliments!! Yeah i think i've got a real nice soil mix now.. it's taken a while but i chose a good soil with good nitrogen content and one that had perlite already mixed in... i've added vermiculite which seems to retain moisture and nutrients better. Also seems to stop frost...
