:\ Why...

Mello should just let it sprount in 0-0-0-0 and then feed it. Now if it trns up an issue you cannot say its your soil since you modified it already. I hope you have none, but calm down on the nuting lol.

I dont plan on any more nutes until it's 3rd watering. Which from the looks of won't be for another week or so.

Yep same day, no germinating this one in anything. Stuck it straight into soil and under 200 W MH... That is how it looked a day later.

Those are the totals of all the bulbs together. From my research I learned that it's 100w per plant.

But With cfl's, 6+ in away is virtually no light for the plants. I have it at 1ft. As it grows I raise the pot closer to lights. It is what I did with the other plants. The grew fine until they got on or past day 10. They would stop growing, I even tried moving them to see if they would follow the light and nothing.

once it stands up and has 1 more set of leaves then lower to 8". and then when it has another new set 6" okay. no nutrients yet. keep posting ill tell you when to add nutes okay.

I wasn't arguing, just making sure. I left 1 light at a foot away....?

ok sure thing. I have 5 other seeds, still waiting for them to pop. Was thinking of possibly increasing my odds of a surviving female bagseed. Thanks DC can't rep you though.

For my own notes I watered today. The auto received nutes. Oldest received just water and was flushed somewhat. The other 3 all received small nutes as well.

Also congrats on your sprout mello

Thanks Jartlow. What do you mean flushed "somewhat"?

I watered with plain water and continued watering until I saw about 20% of the water released through the pot. I did it to get some of the old nutes out because she was getting too green etc.

Sprout straightened up and is looking pretty solid. Soil isn't dry at all. Temp has been consistent on and off at around 68.7-76.1 F. Humidity has also been pretty stable between 28-39%. Still with one CFL (900 lumens 23w actual 6500k) and a foot away from the bulb with a 20/4 light schedule. Pics later on tonight. Should I begin misting or should I leave her be?

Leave her be.. I literally never mist unless I need to foliar feed or my humidity is dead low.
