First Grow!! Very strange.

I've had the seed for nearly 6 months. It came out of a very good strain, I don't seem to remember the name. I am about 2 1/2 weeks in now. Anyways, Here it is!

(14 days old)

The second set had 5 fingers! I changed lights if you can't tell from a 23 watt cfl, to a 43 watt.

(16 days)

The new 43 watt. It seems the leaves are drooping more with it.

(18 days)

(20 days)It seems to be perking up more. I dropped one of the lights on it when moving things around. It was much worse

(Still day 20)New setup.

Comments are much appreciated!!!! Some of the leaves are Curling upward on the edges. The lights are 4" away with air flow. I did leave the cabinet closed one night and it was that was the next. It seems to be contagious to the other leaves. Im not doing nutes and its on 24h. I only water onces ever 3 days with distilled water.

what are the temps in your cab?

Get the lights at most 2 " away... Water less frequently. Let it dry out pretty good before watering again. The pot should be pretty light when you need to water. May be around a week between watering. The leaf curl on the edges is most likely heat stress although I don't see what your talking about. You may need to do a better job of getting the heat away because you should move them closer and it won't help with heat stress. Looks pretty good though. Good luck on getting a female. Heard lower temps, High N and low K, and higher humidity promote more females.

A week between waterings? No frickin way dude... I water every day and sometimes 2x a day, but I dont flood mine either... All that feast famin with watering is putting stress on your plants....

Like Rollinbud said, it's probably best to give them some water everyday or at least every two days. Just don't give them too much.

And yeah the pot weight trick actually works, but I haven't heard of going a full week without watering an indoor plant. Stress can have an impact on your yield numbers.

if you just use your finger its a lot eaiser ..should b dry up 2 your 2 knuckle....also depends the soil your using some drain better...good luck

Ive been using my finger to check it at about an inch deep. I thought one week was kinda long myself. The temp in my cab couldn't be over 73. I havent got to check it but it is in a naturally cold room anyways.

You can kinda tell in the pic on some of the leaves how there curling upward.

Bump!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What soil are you using man? Also , do you check your PH level?

Im using 9 month feed soil and no i haven't checked any levels. When i first potted it the soil i used was more mud than anything. Then once it got to big for that pot I got the 9mo feed soil
