What's up, And welcome to RIU. The third picture, The plant need's more water. I know people are gonna tell you pH and shit, It needs water. Tap water, Let it sit for 24-48 hours (you don't even really have too...) Your set up is good for your first grow. Diameter of grow space? Veg & Flower room? tell me whats up we need more info! more pics too. =]

Ya man, deffo keep us posted.
their looking pritty happy, how old are thay?
they are going on five weeks on wed, I stunted the crap out of them when i first started a few times, i started with like thirty bag seed, you know to even the odds a little, they were all inside a trey of oasis foam, cut so easier to seperate with a decent root seystem. Then i got to reading about how much space the root system actually needs. I was also foliar feeding i run 24/7 so obviously this was a bad idea not only that, I was using my nute water, the fact that i was using nutes on seedling was yet another bad idea. Anyways i began to think about space and fitting bigger pots in it(space that is) so i picked the best seven (strong, nice root systems, big happy foliage, and pungent smell aka early resin developement i think.) they are still in their starter oasis cube 2/3s the way down in the hydroton.
My girls started under one walmart 2' grow light, then i realized that wouldn't do the trick about 1 week in so i added two 100w =, but i tink these were 27k or somthin they were deffinately hotter and a warm reddish color. So i switched to 4 105w= cool 65k bulbs, I also adjusted my nutes to half strength and ever since then they been happy as :fire: i've had a slight nute burn but minimal, for now all is good!:lol:
This is just my little starter and clone box currently finishing up the closet for a little more/taller veg space I'm also going to split the room my armoire/starter cabinet is in once it's all done ill have pics of the outside of the armoire this starter cabinet is nice and stealthy. Back to point im going to have a 6'x 9 x 12 space for also more veg and flower give or take a little, i'll also have pics for that too. Here is some new pics;-)


P.S. I have done my research, but am still not clear on all issues such ass: signs and sytems of, overwatering, underwatering, light and heat issues, humidity, air flow, also home additives that i can use with hydro like can i use molasses or no , so on so forth, all help will be much appreciated!!!!

The main sign of over watering is dropie leaves. what are the light, heat, humidity, air flow issues?

ideally you want an air vent and fan for heat and air flow. but if stuck a fan would surfice with cfls.

not sure about hydro additives, im growing in soil. I know most of the nutrients are ok in both but not sure about additives.
I used fish emulshin for veg and am useing top-max for flower.

Im subscribing to this thread. Best o luck:leaf:

Hay 626. Whats your lighting schedule? If tere flowering already Thay must only be geting 12-14 hrs of light.
Unless there an auto-flowering strain like lowrider. thay grow short and flower themselves (apprently)
