Setup: 2x 26w cfls for now. I also have a 4ft flouro that has t12 coolwhites im not using bc I dont anything about t12's I know people use t8s and t5s. So if anyone knows anything about the t12s info would be greatly appreciated... Thanks 420babies

So I transplanted my seedlings into their own pots tonight. And now I got two seedlings going in their respective cups.
and I have also hooked up the two 4ft F40 T12s. So now I have 2x 6500k cfls 26w, 1 2700k cfl 26w and two F40w T12s. Anyone got any advice? Running 24/0 light cycle.

So my babies came to an abrupt hault on growimg, and the leaves are curling up. I think they are stressed way out and gonna die. So I germed two more seeds. This time from some good green. Jus planted one tonight. Hopefully it will take hold n grow big n strong for mommy n daddy. If not ima just give up.. Ive looked at so many other journals on here and all my plants seem to be way behind from where they should be. I think one of the main problems was stretching in the beginning and bad soil. It was just regular potting soil bc where I live her in the dub v. We have no shops to get good soil and nutes or lights for that matter. Everything has to be ordered off of the web. So hoping and praying they bounce back. Will post pics tomorrow...
 
what type water r u using if tap u need to let it sit out for 30 hrs. to remove metals and then add nutes then check ph to just below 6 (5.8) is what i prefer but each plant is different. toss the clear cups MOLD is gonna take over with that light and moisture. Check ur temps get a fan u may b burning em up 12 bucks at lowes for a temp humid meter

Well thats the lights everyone else is using thats why I got them. Im not using the big one now. Im down to two plants. The rest have died. And yeah im usin tap water but it sets out for days before I use it. Should I take the reflecters off the lights and jus hang bare bulbs. And I started nutes today... And other info would be awesome

So my baby is doing pretty good I think. The stem and stalk are beautiful shades of red and purple as you can see in the pics. Ive been growing with 3x 100 watt cfls. And mg nutes. Closet grow. Two plants total but the other one is only half the size of the one in the pics. Any suggestion would b good. Tell me what u think.....

According to the first post, you germed these before 7/21. This is my first grow. I germed some bagseed and planted on 7/29. My plants are a week younger, and a week ago they looked like your plants do now. So your plants are about two weeks growth behind mine for the same period of grow time. It could be light, nutes, container size. I would think 300w of light would be enough at this point. I can't see your container size, but it looks pretty small.

Otherwise, your plant looks healthy but small.

My container is 10 inches wide and 10 inches deep. I would think that would be big enough. But maybe not. I have a 5 gallon pot I might put it in if its not big enough.

I started a new job about a month ago. At a sign shop. I got me a hook up on almost every light setup. I got a 400w hps bulb, transformer, starter, ignitor, and ceramic socket all for free. I can get metal halide, and hps all the way to 1000w setups. Everything but a reflector for free. So I might sellin sum setup for cheap if I get enough interest. Thanks...
