ok so my first grow ever. these plants are about 3 weeks old. they started out slow but they r finally making progress. my setup consit of 3 cfl 26 watt daylight bulbs on each plant. 18/6 light cycle. im using mg organic soil as my medium. i prob will add nutes in like 2 weeks.. do u think they will need it then? my ph level is right at 7. im trying to get it down to around 6.2-6.5 . i added lemon juice to my water to try to drop /the ph. i water every 4 days(is this good?) the very bottom leaves r yellow because i overwatered the first week or so but learned my lesson from that and now the plants r thriving (thank god!!!!!) is a temp of 81 degrees and humidity level around 39 good?? let me know how im doing

it looks like u got alittle nute burn
yeah my seed starting potting mix has fertlilizer in it. and everytime i watered it i guess it releases the nutes?? but anyways i not going to give it anymore fert for like 2-3 weeks maybe. just all water and let it get bigger. but its doing a lot better. should i trim the yellow part off or just leave it?
i watered them everyday while they were in the jiffy cups and and there was no hole in the bottom of the cup. so the water had no where to go. pretty much i was over doing it. i have learned to wait4-5 days before watering again. i have learned a lot and im still learning. im enjoying this experiment and hopefully i will get great results in the end!
