With some leds like my 600w in seedlings I even put my light as close as 6inchs for a couple weeks but try 12inchs to start and if u notice them stretching instead of the stem getting thicker then lower ur light
They were droopy. I never did lower my light. 18" right? I did put the light on. Figured I would run it until 11. Then back on at 5 tomorrow morning for 18 hrs.
That sounds great but I'd lower it to 12 being that there to streched already it seems what's the length of ur stem to the leaves? The distance from soil to ur 1st set of true leaves should be no more than 3inchs if it is its streching to much and wouldn't be able to suport the leaves soon to be growing. Lowering the light so the plant dosnt focus on getting taller to get the light it needs.
The drooping can be caused by almost anything ( not enough/ to much liquid, transplanting, moveing houses, enviromental issues like co2 light wind ect) the plant seems to be fine tho prob just stress from moveing. She will go back to normal prob by the morning.
Did u transplant her the soil looks brand new. Looks good on the perlight soil mixture did u add any extra? I also have that same ph meter (this is not good for testing water and also don't leave it in the soil the points get corroded and puts the scale outa wack and is very hard to re calibrate from the inside I broke 2scales doing this.)
There's tape 1.5inchs from the points because that's how far u wanna test for moisture to know when to add liquid to ur plants. Ph take from the whole probe. ( I CANT STRESS IT ENOUGH DNT LEAVE THIS SCALE IN THE SOIL, DO UR TEST AND TAKE IT OUT!!!!) I learnt this the hard way.
That container in my pot is added co2 the cheap way hot 30ml HOT water 1/4cup sugar and 1 tblsp of any kind of yeast. This creats cheap co2 for 7-9 days. If u deside to do this boil the water add sugar mix till desolved then add yeast and stir and then after about an hour the yeast breaks down the sugar into co2. I put this into a one of my wife's tuber ware contaires with a hole in the top and I also do the same this in my grow room with a biger container with 1000ml water and I dnt use a lid
I did transplant them into new soil. I used the roots organic 707 I had. I will defiantly lower thend light tonight. 3" anyways. Thanks for the heads up with the meter.
Is it going to hurt anything if I shut everything off at night? It's still winter here. It's- 20 right now. My fear is if I leave the fan on it will get to cold.
Lol thank u for the thought lol ur very welcome for the help anything u need help with just ask I love helping. It sounds like ur on track I hope u enjoy it
How this works is the yeast eats the sugar and creates co2 so the more yeast and sugar the more co2 the water just acts as a buffer to allow the 2 to react to eachother so to ur question it depends how much co2 u want in ur tent I can't tell u how many ppm this creates because I'm to cheap to spend hundrents of dollars on a co2 meter
