Hi bones good evning man��
Those cfls are for heat purpose
Maybe its better to replace them with 2 cob bulbs i have 4000k 50w each?
Or just take them down completly and only leave the main light
As plants get bigger they need more light? Now they can do alright with less? Sorry for newbing so much ��
Thanks for another helpfull comment ��

Try closing the inlet flaps down a bit to restrict some airflow thru the tent to retain some heat from led light. test different opening sizes for airflow. May work for you or not? extra light as you have won't hurt anything, especially if they are helping to maintain atmospheric condition stability. My bad..



Seedlings don't need a super amount of light, I still use the old shop light converted to 2x16w Toggled T8 grow tubes. They will def. use more light the bigger they get.. The light you have should cover it, You can always run veg and flower at same time on it to get the most out of it..



Tap root out the bottom lets you know it's there.. personally I let them get a bit bigger, easier for me to transplant when the soil is held together by the roots a bit, but it's your garden and your there first hand seeing the progression, Up pot if you feel the need, won't hurt em.

-----
Restricting my intake holes is not an option because the exauhst fan is too powerfull and it creates too big of negative air pressure if i cancle one of the inlet
But i think i am ok for now
When the other stuff arrives (fan speed controller and thermostat)ill be able to control better

About the lights yeah i am still experimenting...i guess ill see sooner or later what works best

Thanks for all of the support this is an awesome place !!

Hey everyone

Just an update
The little plants issues has not gotten much better
The growth was super slow and they will never recover 100% in my opinion,
Thinking about it i may have burned them with the lights...i figured the 2 healthy ones were grown with cfls before i made this tent led setup and only about a week later they were put in the led.anyways these are bagseeds and ive fot a ton of them so i got the stressed ones out of the tent (my mom will try to do somthing with them maybe i dont know...) and germenated new ones...3 are in the pics and the rest is still germinating
Gonna keep them super far from the light now
Measuring intensity with a phone app i have tested.

2 of the big ones are dowing amazing!
Here they are :)

how often are you watering? from the pictures it looks like that is mostly coco and perlite.



if those are in natural light, then they need some food. see how they look pale throughout the whole plant? that means they are hungry. what kind of feeding schedule are you on?



here's a couple things you could research
Dolomite Lime (not quick or hydrated lime) as a ph buffer for your media

Earthworm Castings and their many benefits and uses


you're not doing too bad, just be patient and don't try to change too many things at once.

Hi and thanks for the reply
I am Growing them in a perlite vermiculite humus coco mixture soil witch is lightly fertilated i think and is sold by local hydroshop.
And one of my problems is that i am not sure about when and if to feed
I fed each plant twice so far with 1/4 strenght biobizz bio grow
Should i use more? This yellowing is confusing wasnt sure it was a defficency

This looks just like nitrogen defieciency, which is the main nutrrient for vegetative growth. Usually it is characterized by a very lime green paleness but not really any brown/burned edges or splotchieness. As said here before, if your soil is actually more of just an aeration medium with little actual dirt in it, then adding some 1/2 strength nutrients or vegetative fertilizer would help. There is a thread on plant deficiencies in the Cannabis Infirmary subforum here...

But those look super healthy other than the color change! Like really good plants! Dont worry..:biggrin:

Your girls are looking nice. Looks like you have something different in the bunch. If they were the same seed I would say it was a different pheno,

Hi the two big plants are gone
They recovered 100% when i fed them!! New growth was super healthy but one is a male and the other i removed because i wanted to start a new generation with correct ph and same age plants so that i can control humidity and light intensity... started over
Thinking about repotting 6 plants to bigger pots and switch to 12/12 after 1 mounth than i can remove mails quickly and be left with maybe 2 good females
