Hi, I recently started my first grow ever and after some research I went with Mephisto based on their reputation.
It's a small closet grow of just two plants(Forum Stomper and DGx3BOG) in 3 gallon fabric pots(Biobizz light/perlite) under a Roleadro Full Spectrum 3rd Gen 600w(135 actual). Temps are a constant 75-80f with 40-50% humidity and I have a fan going with good air circulation.
I started the grow by watering the pots well with plain water and letting them sit under the light for 24 hours before planting the seeds directly in their final pots. The broke soil 4 days later(yesterday) and I think are looking ok, but I have a couple of questions.
First, how should I go about watering young plants? My plan was to let the pot dry out completely before watering again, but i have been misting the top soil 2 or 3 times a day when it's looking a bit dry. Is this a sound approach?
Also, the DGx3B is looking a little lanky already. Is this genetics or should I lower the light(currently 35-40 inches)?
I'll post a pic of each below, feel free to throw in any advice. I'd appreciate it. Thanks.
