ok this is my first grow to make it this far. i have actually been experimenting alot, with out much experience, so i have killed 2 seedlings before. but due to stupid decisions
heres the situation:
im growing in an old 55 galon aquarium, next to some lettuce and a lil pumpkin seedling(funny but they love 18/6 light)
its in some old potting soil, that i took out of my garden, which has been producing nice herbs. the soil is fluffy, moist, not compact so i didnt give it hardly any perlite.
i live in S. florida, weather drops to lowest 50's ocasionally, but its about 5-10 degrees warmer in the tank due to the light.
i put a 4inch fan near it once a day or so.
i dont know what im doing wrong!!! it jsut looks wimpy. i had a seedling once that developed much faster, and not as tall/lanky as this one.
and im not watering until the top gets dry, then i give it some bottled water( i get lazy with buying a big gallon of distilled xD)
Suggestions? Comments? Complaints?
