Make sure they have proper drainage in the bottom. So far so good. You can get a cheap thermometer \ hydrometer on eBay or AmaZon for about $10 usd. Also make sure you water correctly. There's a link in my signature below that helps with watering. Her thread has helped myself and many other members who thought they were watering correctly. I suggest reading it.

I will order one on firday aka payday maybe just see if Lowe's have one. And I almost forgot the drainage part can't lie lmao i did make some spots for it tho so that's all good and I'll check out the watering guide asap.

Had a moment this afternoon when flipping on the cfl and this Lil baby was leaning over on the soil did not seem to damage the seedling decided just to put some soil around up to the top hope that is right.

Everything looks as it should. She'll grow upwards to the light.

Good start, like mentioned above, make sure those pots drain out and empty the drain pan, do not let the pots sit in the run off it'll cause issues. And the thread on watering a potted plant is great! Water and up-pot properly to develop a healthy root mass!

Thanks man you know about how long till my 12 day old would take to start fixing the single drooping leaf may take to start straightening up to the light just seemed odd that 3 of the 4 leafes look fine and are up and the one solo one is just looking down there is no discolored or dead spots.

If you don't have one yet...they sell timers on eBay for under $6 usd.

As I was once told...set up a time lapse camera on your plants. You'll be amazed at how much they move in a day.

Will do I have a iPhone I'm not useing anymore so I'll set that up and yes I remember just the new growers blues I guess.

Patience my friend. The plants look perfectly fine. In the meantime just do some reading on what you think you need to know. Learn about your grow. Use other's journals as a guideline to your grow. And ask away. The members are here and happy to help you succeed.

It almost looks like they are leaning towards a light, if you don't have it directly above them they will lean so rotate any cups through out the day to keep them straight, mine did that because I couldn't fit them all under my t5 seedling light.

 

[slayerofpugz]

Yes it's poor boy looking but all I could come up with in a short time I'm thinking of takeing a big Bin lining up with (foil)? Inside putting making 2 slots for (x2) 5000k CFLs and I won't for a mini fan to blow air in. Is a humidifier needed truely?

So what I have going on it's not a good start

Also since I'm running 18-6 would moving each plant under the light for 6 hours a day work?

 

[Canuckush]

Plants will veg under cfl's, it's good, just check to see if they start learning towards the light then rotate a quarter ways, keeps them growing straight as they grow.

 

[slayerofpugz]

Decided to go with a not so popular item Tin foil dull side up to help pervert leaning assuming that works may go a different way will keep y'all updated

 

[slayerofpugz]

So any advice over or under watered ? soil was near dry when I poked in it I have it in a 2 gallon bucket I don't water it untill it drips out the bottom thinking that may be the issue at the same time I don't wanna over fill the plant only 13 days old began with one leaf now they are all going the same path just watered it some splashed on to the plant not worried about that just the way it's starting the go.
