first grow under 96 watt fluro fixture

[tharper127]

Also: Your soil does look very dense. Dig through the holy scrolls for pot-up recommendations for your transplant into bigger pots. The Lord mixes 25% perlite with his soil. This hath worked well for the Lord.

Peace & Love

hahaha.... i knew the j-man tokes it up!! the perlite hath worked for me as well.

ill get my hands on some perlite soon but when i get it i want to replant them cuz this soil is rele shit, if someone could help me out with re-potting these babes into bigger pots and adding the perlite, ect, ect...or just point me towards a thread
here are some pics from now, they are looking quite nice
my 3rd plant is still allive, i pulled 2 sets of fan leaves from the bottom the other day cuz they where dead but its still growing
also wanted to let you know, my temps are rite around 80f and humidity is at 28%, i think my temps are ok seeing as i have a fan going and they are under a fluro but is humidity a big concern for me?? (i just got a termometer and humidomiter, lol, watever its called)

sorry i didnt take any pics today cuz i was out all day, i got back and later tonight i noticed that they where quite wilted and not just the leaves eaven the stems where kinda bent over, its deff not over water or under water cuz all my watering have been fine before adn the soil was fine, ph is also good, i noticed again my soil being kinda solid so i pulled my plants out and saw a buch of roots at the bottom of the pots, so i put a 1/2 inch of hydroton at the botom of the pots, then about 2 inches of soil and then put the plant with the rootball a bit massaged into the pot and covered the sides to the top with hydroton, i did this for both and gave a tiny bit of water with h2o2 and now its lights off so till 2moro i will have to wait.
i didnt have bigger pots at the moment so i couldnt re-plant and i still didnt have a chance to get any perlite
ill post some pics in the afternoon after lights have been on for a bit and i wake up myself
tell me what you think, id rele like to have some input on this

 

[ganjaboii024]

here are todays pics, they look better after removing them and adding some hydroton and soil to the bottom of the pots and planting the plants higher up in the pots, i will get proper pots, some good soil and perlite by the end of this week and do a final re-pot
i was told my plants look overwatered, the soil on top is dry and at the bottom when i was moving it around was still damp, im letting them sit for now but tell me what you think

ok so i guess you can say that im the new kid on the block,but im not sure how to ask a question on this website..any ways here i have two 40 watt fluros about 3" above my plant and its only three days old,so its my first time growing indoors and im just worried that either my plant is going to burn up or it might not get enough light so if any body can answer any of these questions ill be here waiting..
thanks

 

[ganjaboii024]

here are some pics from tonight, take a look
they are looking better but still a bit wilted, its deff a prob with my soil being so shitty but i cant do 2 much about that.

-midnight.toker: you can have fluros even 1 inch away from your plants and not burn em, youll deff need more lights on those when they get bigger for sure

 

[ganjaboii024]

just saw the pics from last night didnt load up, ill post those again along with a pic of my growbox from today, you can see that the plants from today look much better then last nights pics, i also added 2 26watt 6500k cfls for more light and i plant on adding another 2 a bit later when they get bigger, i hope by the time flowering comes ill have the funds to invest in a proper HPS light system

 

[ganjaboii024]

WOW, JUST FKN WOW!!!!
ill post a pic once my batt is charged
the 2 cfl's i put on the sides of my plant where fine for like an hour but then i left for a pre christmas dinner (its family tradition, and sooooo good to munch) 5 hours later when i got back one of my plants which i had placed closer to the light, by pure chance had actually fully bent 90 degrees at the stem prety much in the middle and the top and side leaves where all facing the bulb, the other plant was farther away and is still facing up, i got so scared at first but am laughin rite now, i hope this didnt stress my baby out 2 much but since i moved her back she seems to be getting better (ie. starting to bend back up)

 

[ganjaboii024]

here is the pic, take a look
maybe its just me being a noob and never seeing this before but i think its amazing
tell me what you think, and please tell me if this is going to affect my plant

 

[ganjaboii024]

lots of views, but no comments... whats up??

anyways...

here is the update,
i put a bit of a brace on my bent over plant last night using a piece of wire and tying it to the side of my box, this morning it was capable of holding itself so i took the wire off, the plant seems fine, doesn't really seem to be growing much tho...and the bottom leaves are still droopy, my other plant however looks great!!! and my third plant is coming along really nice and green and healthy so im happy

my question:
-> the plant that bent over 90 degrees to the side last night, what affect will this bending have on my plant?, will it slow growth?

 

[ganjaboii024]

so today after lights on i checked on em again, one of my plants is doing great but the other one, the one that bent over is still wilting quite a lot on the bottom sets of leaves, i also noticed that i have at least 4 leaves on the bottom of the plant that has yellowing leaves that also have some light brown splotches and are drying out (it has taken over about half of all the affected leaves. its not mites or any bugs as i have thoroughly checked, its not a heat issue, im thinking it has to do with the fact that this is the plant that bent over completely....or sumthing else??? please help, i dont wanna do the wrong think here

 

[ganjaboii024]

here are the pics from tonight
i cut off 4 sets of leaves cuz they looked quite bad and it kept progressing, growth has stalled and its still wilted...please help

 

[ganjaboii024]

i posted a thread in the plant problems forum but i didnt get a response for i while so i ended up watering them and they perked rite up...
i guess i underwatered...lol
the leaves are still yellowish at the bottom, im using GH floranova grow at 1/2 strength but some people here have told me to put some coffee grinds in my soil...should i...how much...fresh or used??
here are some pics
share any input if you can
