Hey,
Ive been growing for about 3 weeks now and progress is moving along very slowly. Im growing in a 3 foot tall 2 feet deep 3 ft wide tent. Its meant for hanging clothes in but i cut it down to make it fit in my grow spot. The temp is usually around 75 durring the day with about 40- 50 humidity but being april in Maine the temp might drop some during the 4 hours of darkness.
I have two 27 watt CFL's on each of my plants, I only have 2 plants at the moment but others are sprouting. The 8 little sprouts have two 17 watt CFLs on them.
There is a fan that i have on them and it runs for the time when im home ( 4 hours a day). I only run it those times because its fairly loud and i need to get a smaller/ quieter one.
The two larger plants them selves are currently in ceramic pots that are about 1.5 liters in size. They have been growing unimaginably slow. while they were sprouting i had them in an insulated cooler (its in my attic and i wanted them to stay warm at night) with one 14 watt CFL, thats the reason they are stretched. Once they had there embryotic leaves they were probally 2 inches high and i put them into my large chamber. now 11 days later they have only grown a tiny amount.
Currently they are about 3 inches tall and on the first layer of leaves the leaves are about 1 inch each. The second pair of leaves is jsut starting to come out and are probally 1/2 an inch each. The soil ive been using is scotts potting soil with 30% vermiculite and 10% sand. I have been looking at other peoples grows and they seem to be going much much faster than mine. what am i doing wrong????
I will be getting pictures up as soon as i find my camera cord,
thanks
