First Grow, closet grow help needed.(PICS)

like still same hieght the newer set leafs coming out are getting bigger though but still small to me for 7 days old... still healthy green to it.

Edit:well it is small for 7 days still prob lil over 1/2 inch tall... idk maybe i should switch 12/12 see if it grows better but then wouldnt i need some 2700k's only have 6500k's atm.

anyone have a comment on how to make the pop can reflecters and what the advantages/disadvantages are?

keep the pot cans as far away from your plants as possible.
like throw them in the trash can.
foil/mylar coated or white painted grow spaces/rooms are the best for reflectivity.

i would cut back on the lighting to 12/12 plants need darkness to finsh photosynthesis that they started during the day,,, your method of 18/6 can be casing stress on the leafs and cause them to drop add a thermomter to keep track of heat that may also be a problem... hope this helps

sorry but you are completelly wrong.
i run 24/0 from seed for 2 weeks and then switch to 18/6 for the remainder of the vegging and then go 12/12.

with so little amount of light id throw it to 24 hrs because that will help grow more roots and roots are what makes your plant healthy and big..... with more roots you get more leafs and with more leafs you get bigger bolder buds

you are nowhere near ready to switch to 12/12(thats just asking for hermies/stress and problems).
either stick to 18/6 or go 24/0 for faster growth untill vegging ends 4-6 weeks.

(NO 12/12 UNTILL VEGG ENDS).

ight i think ima keep it 18/6, ill have more pics 2marrow and hope to have better quality close ups on plant gotta toy wit camera ima head to bed got early class 2marrow will prob update be4 or after class. thanks guys

okay heres 3 more pics, i try get best quality pics as i could camera suck and batteries dead. anyway you can see my babie leafs turning yellow now.. idk why and you can see my big leafs still drooping, you cant really see the new set leafs coming out. idk if theres anything you can see that i dont (even tho pics is bad) let me know how to fix.

You think it not getting enough light? got the 4x23w(100w) daylight 6500k cfls in there with one like 2 inch from plant you can see inthe pic.

The CFL still produce heat, just not as much as the MH and the HPS lights. The technique for watering according to the cup weight is great. You'll notice that you'll only be watering about every three days. No need to drown the little girl either. You want to give it just enough so it won't get water logged. It needs the fan, just not on high. Make sure your light isn't touching the plant. You can still burn the plant with a CFL. Good luck!

the yello leafes are called cotyledons (seed leafes) and are supposed to turn yellow/die and eventually drop of the stem now that you have 2 true leafes emerging.
so its perfectly normal and looking good.

okay thx guys, and umm yea just got home checked on it and them leafs got more yellow like a pale yellow height still a problem but idk maybe its just growing slow because i can only get one cfl close enough and the other 3 are kind of far away? which is why i was thinkin of the pop can reflecters to reflect light to the plant idk tho only time will tell ill just keep updated but at this rate of growth might be once a week but them 23w will have to do for flowering ill have 42w's and some 23w's. it never gets too hot in the grow room either i had my fan off for bout 6 hours and came back home and felt good in there like a nice warm. still waiting for my droopy ass leafs to return to normal state or are they always going to be drooping down to the soil.

and o dorian my fan only has 1 setting for the cool air and other 2 are for hot air. i got my primary light thats just above the plant like 2-3 inchs i raised it just a little to incourage a little stretching lol but idk time will tell 2 weeks for now i want to see it.

dam now my big droopy leafs are turning light green starting at tips and there still curled down to soil idk wtf going wrong im going to start germing some more seeds right now
