Firstly a big hello to all as this is my first post
decided to finally take the plunge and have a go at a little grow ...
strain - white rhino greenhouse seeds feminized (Afghan, Brazilian and South Indian)
where - 1mx1mx2m progrow tent
soil - soil (organic) van de zwaan house and garden bat special.
nutes bio - canna( rhizotonic / vega / flores ) ....might purchase bio boost but have not decided yet
light 200watt cfl with reflective hood - seedling / veg - 400hps - veg/flower
how long 3 weeks since germination
After germination I placed the jiffy pellets into a propagator. As soon as activity above ground was evident the pots were placed under a 16w 3400k kitchen light on 24/0. Initially the seedlings were 25cm/8" (pic 1) from the light but after looking at a few other threads my seedlings seemed to be growing rather tall. I then moved the seedlings a lot closer to the light -
9cm/3 1/4" (pic 2).
Clearly these kitchen floros where under powered and too far away from the seedlings hence the stretching. I purchased a 200watt cfl and moved my seedlings into the tent where they have been for a week. Although growth has been more rapid problems have started to arise
