ya if its only 10 day old u shouldnt feed them i for to write the nt at the end of shouldnt sorry wait like a couple of weeks like 2 or 3 and ya with what this guy said if ur useing worm castings and ur soil has some nutes that could be way to much aspeislly if the plant is only 10 days old.think of it not even 3 weeks old u should give anything yet and u could be givin way to much.ur hurting ur plant.u might have to transplant it into some fres soil with no nutes in it with some perlite ans peat moss and some other stuff that comes with good soil.if want a list let me know ill write.this way u can have clean fresh soil and u won have to worry about too much nutes or any or even if it does have to much water too. its like starting fresh.and pick up some superthrive that works good.

What kind of soil is it? If so, there could be nutrients in the soild and witht he nutes from the castings you could be experiencing nute-lockout. Also, do you have drainage holes cut on the bottom?

Clowdy, some of that doesn't really make sense. You asked if it was 10 days old and then told him to start feeding nutes if it is, then you siad your not supposed to feed them until they are 2-3 weeks old?? lol I would wait a bit on the nutes

wow what a dumbass. i'm such a dumbass... duh wow... "earth worm castings "ENRICHER" wow... wow wow.. All I was doing was feeding my seedlings full nutes wow... I just got done transplanting into some fresh soil 1/3 parts mix with perlite... WOW I can't believe i missed that... and the back of the bag it says mix earthworm castings enricher to your regular soil 1/4 parts...

yea dude check it.

I got a clone on Christmas eve from the clinic and the asshat had fed it pretty strong nutes for being young. Its pretty much dead now, leaves started turning purple and red. It suffered from nutrient lock-out and the roots couldnt suvk up any water. Try flushing it, you should see growth within the week, maybe a little more.

this is what ive been working on i made it out of a couple of boxes i black taped up together the i put wrapping paper all around the in side and the dull side of the aluminum foil on the top then i cut out a square hole on the top of the ox so i could put the exuast fan there that i made out of one of the fans that u buy seprate to hook up to ur xbox360 to keep it cool lets just say i riped the shit out of to get the fan :0) and it has a off and on switch with it too.
then with 2 socket spliters ans 2 socket straight plugs i put them in the sides of the box right under the exuast fan so the fan will take some of that heat out.then pluged an exstention cord on each side and pluged the exuast fan up and wella thats it .i do a stack of shit to get the plants close to the lights and i lifted the box so the big fan i have could blow air into the box to lower the temp and when the time comes to shut the lights off i take the box off the and have the big fan hit the plants to help the stem :0)
heres some pics what ya think i know it aint like ur cabb that u built but its something :0)

ahh dude that looks good...
I have a box going right now just like that until i get my cab up and running... it's 1'x1'x3' with 6 26 watt cfls inside and 3 hopefully females that I can clone.. I tore apart a microwave for the blower inside omg are they nice... works excellent as an exaust fan... and they i have a regular computer fan for the intake ... how are your temps inside that thing ?

temps r ok i get up in the 80's not too hot and that gave me an idea im going to see if we still have that old microwave thanks for the thought :0)
ya i was thinking of puting more lights up too but that should be ok for now atleast
the thing that sucks is when i got up this morning cuase i took the box off the plants is it got to 60 something degrees with the big fan blowing on them
i dont remember if thats too cold or not.im trying to strengthen the stem so i used the big fan to hit the sprout.

ya.. stay between 70 and 80 if ya can...

and yes... we had a pretty good sized microwave before xmas (we got a new one for xmas) I took it apart and there was a 6" fan inside a housing that I could use to mount directly to my box... before I had 2 computer fans one for intake and one for exaust ... and I was running 90 degrees with the door closed... couldn't do it.. so i had to leave it open... well I just took the fan out and cut the cord of to the microwave and spliced it together pluged it in and it impressed the hell out of me. i was like wow, this damn thing blows... Stuck that at the top of my box and now i'm running at a perfect 71 degrees with my door closed... and you know it's working good... If i go to open the door you can feel the suction of the fan because its trying to suck the door back shut I love it... how big do you plan on vegging them to until you switch it flower ?
