growing slow

[yoitsslobo]

Hey guys I put a couple seeds under a couple 2700k cfl's 12/12.,they haven't grown much in the past couple days and there supposed to grow fast during flowering.,I only have 2 23 wattss and haven't started nutes yet? Any suggestions?

need a few details on what you've been using for soil
sounds like these are seedlings that just popped up? you may want to mix in some 5500k-6400k cfl's

They're not growing very fast because they aren't getting a lot of light.

They might not be growing quickly just like punk said theres not enough light. Get four or five compact fluorescent lights and itll grow somewhat quicker. Put at least 60watts on them, but if you can jump up the floros to 100w or more do it.

They sprouted about a week or two ago put them right into flowering..foxfarm., 6500 k is better for veging though

true, but starting out with 12/12 does not mean you are right in to flower
you're minimizing the veg cycle, not eliminating it
so in the beginning, some higher kelvin temps may help
when you see the sex signs(hopefully the hairs), then the 2700k comes in to its own

grow one is right how close r lights keep them about three inches awa and get as many cfl as posible give 70/30 6500k/2700k for a couple weeks then go 2700k all the way
