Hi all, Im currently doing a grow journal it states what lights and mediums ect im using so have a look at it all first, you can read it here: https://www.rollitup.org/t/herbies-lemon-kush-cfl-grow-jan-2016.895315/
Its now on the 8th day from sprouting, first 4-5 days i feel it grow quite well, but the last lets say 3 days i see very tiny to no growth at all. Got 5x 23w 6500k cfl lights on it the past few days not fed any nutes at all as the soil is a slow release (I know now this was a bad choice) Temps have been quite high at certain times of the day touching 30c, but thats just over the plant, the top of area been about 26c. i got decent airflow not been over watering apart from right at the start i may have soaked the soil a little which i dried off the next day after advice from other people on my thread. I do notice 1 root poking out of the bottom of the plant pot which is a 4" diameter and 3" deep pot. Surely it cant have filled the pot from such a tiny little plant?
All in all the plant looks super healthy, nice and green leaves and stalk....maybe as Jacob said in my journal, be patient, but i do research and see others growing under similar condition using cfl and after 8 days they got there second or third set of leaves but are really wide.
Also i notice the odd microscopic white bugs running around in the soil which i have narrowed down to possibly soil mites or spring tails,they are super hard to see and they sometimes jump. Nothing on the plant and looks like they not interested in it either which is a relief.
Im in New Zealand by the way and most brand of products found in your countries are not available here, like dinosaur land living here lol.
Any help appreciated, thanks guys n gals.
