Yeah get a real grow light.

A real Grow light with AT LEAST 100 true watts of power, and some aeration into your grow medium will help a whole lot.

Well the lights are one issue. The soil is what's bothering me atm. The roots all seems to be growing up top instead of down. From what I can see that soil looks like hard mud with no perlite. The roots can't breath.

It not normal soil but its a Peat-moss
Can is use coco soil alone ? Better than peat-moss or i must use perlite with peat-moss and coco soil
Thank you for help

You really do not need to get expensive lights ,the soil is more of a concern .fluro globe will be fine, till it gets a bit bigger .To much is spent on accessories.

Try doing it with good water practises, in feel the weight it will tell you when to water.Worm fish and seewead fertizer is cheap and does a great job.Calmag,root stuff all just extra money,try a grow then look at what to spend on.People on here will help you sought you problems.
it is fun trying and when you have a puff on your own it will be a great feeling.

The color index is not the most important thing. It's the total amount of light that's important. You probably only have like 10-20w total when at least 200w is needed to make it worth while IMO.

The plants will veg under 2700K, 3500K, 6400K, and even 10000K. Having a color index of 6400K is recommended for veg growth, but a lot of people veg fine with just standard HPS @ 2700K.

yes wastei, the mars hydro ts600 is 100w actual draw, but you will need to train your plants to get max benafit from them, not sure of other led grow lights, im useing mine for seedlings and cuttings, after that i would personaly opt for a larger hid bulb, 400 watts say.
you can lollipop under the light canopy to get more out of your crop, low stress training would work on an auto to get a better return

to me it looks like you are over watering. that single serrated leaf looking white-ish and wrinkled -- the plant is drowning imo.

probably sort out your watering schedule a bit better. might even want to transplant to drier medium. you will have cost yourself a couple weeks growth time. barring any other issues and assuming this is in fact over-watering, you should be fine, unless she grows a dick or two.

gonna air some of my dirty laundry real quick.

this is an over watered plant in early recovery. i was waaaaay too stoned and not paying attention and not taking notes. just like high school actually. lol.


So I transplanted her to drier soil, started paying attention and begged forgiveness. My fuck ups cost me about 3 weeks growth time.

But this is her now


the bones in the lower left corner are the remains of the second, not so lucky, plant i over watered. it went hermie b/c of all the stress and i was forced to kill it.

I can describe how you are a good man thank you very much i will take by your advise
My old way to water it was every 2 days in peat-moss but now water it every 5 to 7 days and i stared using 20/20/20 1 time every 14 days
