1st grow ever - using DWC in 4x4 tent

[Tosmtt]

Hello everyone

This is my first grow ever and I am using DWC, and I would like to share with you all to learn, share knowledge and get your advice.

I had a problem in seeding in humidity dome, I think it was because I extra watered, so I had long stretchy stem, moved it to the dwc and I added support, I think I passed that stage

Today is day 15 for my plant, everything looks fine so far, and I started training and I hope I am doing right.

If you have the time kindly view the pictures and give me your advice.

Your comments and advice are highly appreciated.

thanks,

Long stretchy stem is likely due to lack of light. Your plant has stretched out, reaching for a light source. Need to get it closer to your lights.

Hello and thanks for replying

Actually it was stretchy in the dome it self, I didn't give any light at all thin, for that I thought it was from over watering coz I was watering everyday.

After I moved it to the to container I started the lights around 50c away from the plant, I am using G8LED 450W LED it is about 50cm (19inch) on top of the plant, and I am keeping it as that now, should I move it closer?

Also I am using 440 CFM 6" fan + 2 Active Air 6" 5W Magnetic fans in the tent., and I am trying to keep temp between 25c during the day and 20c at night, and humidity around 45%

Your recommendation is highly appreciated

Thanks

Overwatering will cause droopy leaves. Long thin stems in stretchy plants are looking for more usable light.

Learning by mistake, the hard way!

Haha. Sometimes... Mistakes make the best teachers.

They are clearly nute lock out and only uptake water not nutes and over water and no nutes.

That's how we all learned.
Really support that tall seedling she kinda looks like she may topple over?
