OK i could use a lil help my self. I got 4 plants in plastic drinking cups like the college beer pong ones just not red there clear. In 50 percent foxfarm warrior mix and 50 percent foxfarm oceanforrest. 1 plant is older by 4 days or so its got about 6 leaves out the biggest fan leaves are drooping and yellow at the tips. i have another seedling that popped up and its fans leaves came out very much werid like some one crushed them so the seem a lil deformed lokoing but seem to be getting better and my smallest one is very tiny and the leaves popped out but it is sitting very low its very small and the first 2 lil sprouting leaves the circled shaped leaves are starting to dry up and one other plant is fine. Soo i been watering them almost once a day because i have a moisture meter and it gets real dry real quick in there. once it says dry i water them. my tent has 4 100 wat cfls one on each plant righttt above them. 2 fans on a 4inch blowing to the side of the cups and bulbs. then a bigger 10 in fan oscillating toward them also. But my temps been getting a lil higher usuaully at 81 when i keep the teent open but when closed could go up to 83-85 and its very dry the humidity is at 20 perceent all the time. also last thing is i got my water siting in an open container to kill of the chlorine and the ph is perfect as i got a meter in side it like a fish tank. ANY help? i mean it seems like the last couple days they havent been growing to much. am i watering to much should i let it get even dryer in there? should i put a humifier since its so low? just need some help right now

You need to do a lil more homework is all. Just scan these threads and you will find your answers. First thing I would do if i were you is get rid of them kegger cups and buy an actual planter with drainage holes on the bottom... Do your research, you'll figure it out. We have all been there.. done that. Best wishes, CG :)

ditch the clears cups get one with drainage your prob over watering

check like 5 inchs deep if its moist your fine if its dry water easy

get the humidity up make little domes with the clear cups air holes spray inside the cups put on top of plants that would raise the humidity


i all so use fox farm soil and well i had to get my ph to around 6.5-6.7 to balance the soil run off my plants were turning yellow and dieing cause my PH was too low caused nute lockout seems to happen ALOT with farm farms if you don't get everything perfectly matched

DO u mean the Ph as in the water ur putting in or the ph level in the soil? cause my ph level is 6.7 as in the water im putin in i mean. also on my cups i poked holes out the bottom before i put the soil in them so they could drain out
