Jack Herer Autoflower CFL 2017

[Fullthrottle]

First grow; don't be scared to tell me what I'm doing wrong, I'm here for the feedback. Im using crop king seeds' Jack Herer femininzed autoflower. It's March 3rd and they've been in soil for approx 1 week. Currently using a box but I have a lot of closet room to work with once they mature. I don't have a small enough fan for the box so Im hoping that doesnt cause any problems with airflow. I've had a problem years ago with seedlings becoming too tall and weak so this technically isn't my first grow. Is that a problem with the lights being too far away and/or insufficient lighting?

I currently have them under four 23watts 1600lumens 5000k CFLs

add another two bulbs once they are in veg?

I plan on tapering my closet in half with those car windshield reflectors and transplanting them into 3-4g pots, hooking a fan up in the corner, and figure out a new lighting system. An extension cord isnt gonna cut it past this stage, I'm thinking a powerbar lol I have zero electrical background so wiring a plug is too much of a hassle if I can halfass an alternative

-Germinated using the CKS method. 2/2 worked.

-Miracle Grow (I'm now aware it shouldnt be used if you plan on using fertilizer, I wont be using miracle grow once I transplant into 3-5g pots. Gonna pick up some cheap generic medium today)

- I will be using Plantprod All purpose 20-20-20. Not sure on the dosing protocol. I'll research more when the time comes.

Will add pictures once I figure out how

I got a thermostat today... It was cooking at around 40 degrees celsius. Hopefully no damage was done the past few days. I've decided to toss the grow box, and bought car windshield reflectors. I'm in the beginning stages of getting my closet ready for the larger pots.

*The pot in this picture is sitting there acting as a counterbalance for my light right now. Not it's permanent home lol

Interested in yours as well. 23 days from germination?

 

[Fullthrottle]

This guy isn't growing much. Not much development for several days. Noticed some white spots on the leaves. Any idea whats causing it to behave this way?

 

[Fullthrottle]

They could be growing fine for all I know. But it's growing slower than this girl ^

How big of a deal is a fan at this stage?

I wouldn't say it would matter at that stage as long as your temps are good, unless you had a lot of stretching then I guess you could use a fan to help strengthen the stems maybe?

20/20/20 is way too hot. Here is some good NPK ratios for soil.
Veg: 3-1-2
Early Bloom: 2-1-2
Mid Bloom: 1-1-2
Late Bloom: 0-1-2
Maybe why you are showing signs of white spots on your new leaves. I will follow along for the rest of your grow. I am also using CFLs

Thanks for the feedback everyone. I'm learning new things daily. Can anyone help identify whats causing the leaves to become a little pale? It looks like theres 2 shades of green

 

[Fullthrottle]

They look like 2 different strains if you ask me.

Are you giving them nutes? Sounds like it may be a nitrogen overdose this early in its life
