Hi there folks
story short, got some seeds out of a purchase and they germinated! =D
2 plants from seed, planted in generic homebase multipurpose compost in peat pots, then peat pots buried in more of the same compost in icecream tubs.
they are being watered to saturation then leaving to dry out mostly (rapid draining soil) water is southampton tap water (tepid temprature)
starting to see some little white spots and what look like very small blisters and some leaf serrates curling upwards.
Lighting is 3x 20w CFLs pushing out 1350 lumins each at 2700k spectrum.
i have no way to check temprature or PH levels atm till money flows a little better, but someone may know the PH of my water.
oh my plants are around 2 weeks old, not sure exactly as i work a lot and the sun comes up and goes down ad infinitum =/

Hopefully someone can help, i know that spider mites seem like something i may have trouble with, but im not sure as it looks more like a nute deficiency.
Im really hoping that its ph lockup and someone can say from my tap water wether i need to PH up or down.
I keep them in a small cupboard atm so the heat from the 3 lights is just about enough.
