Put the CFLs right on them to avoid all that streching

Love all the work you're putting into this! I used commercial soil and didn't run into any problems, I'm sorry I can't help because I'm a first time grower too. I hope your plants get healthy and you have a successful grow though. Good luck with your grow!

Quick update...today is going to be my 3rd week of feeding and the plants seem to be stable but height wise they are about 3-4 inches...is this normal? Should I lower the lights? Light is about 30 inches above and is on. 18/6 schedule. Thanks

Anyone...please, I'm thinking of buying great white to add to my next feeding

Lowering the light will keep the plants shorter. Raising the light will cause the plants to stretch towards it.

How far should I raise them..they are led
Sent from my iPhone using 420 Magazine Mobile App
Led promotes compact internodal spacing. In other words the plants don't stretch much under the led light so there isn't really any way to make them stretch.
Perhaps trying higher temperatures would be an avenue worth exploring.

Right now I only have on om 450 but I haven't turned on the 2nd yet...should it. I also bought the shark root power and will add it to today's new feeding after I get rid of the old water from last week. I heard really great things about led but are they not good?

Anyone...any advice please .

First:
1. Light advice on here was off in my opinion. This is why your plants stretched.
2. 900 PPM is way too high. Bring it down to 400 for now.
3. Not sure why your leaves are yellowing. I doubt it cause of too much light.
I'll be conservative, but keep an eye out....
1. bring light to 12 inches and go down from there as your monitory. I put mine at that age about 6 inches away from my T5 lights. If you buy a laser temperature meter (cheap at canadien Tire), the top leaves should be no higher than 86 degrees. If you set your light for that you will get the max light you can get with your light.
2. Bring nuts down this way. Now this works with the various nuts i used. follow the instructions on the bottle of nutz. So if it says 1ml of nuts per litter, then do the math for how much water you need to perpare. Put in the nuts first in your pale and start adding water with a PH meter in the water. Once the Ph reaches 5.8 or 6.5 (for soil), stop adding water and measure the nut level. I'm guessing it will be between 450 and 600.
