My chronic lights plant. How does she look?

Hello here is my chronic lights plant from original sensible seeds. She is 3 weeks old in a 2 gallon hempy bucket. I am using 100% perlite. I have been growing her under cfl lighting. I have a bigger light on the way. I am using GH nutes flora series 3-part. I was just wanting to know your thoughts on how she is doing. Does need anything, she looks alittle light in color.

When growing in something totally inert like perlite,you are totally on the hook to make sure that plant gets fed what it needs.That being said you might want to up your ppms a small amount.Too early for red stems and pale leaves.

Im interested in seeing how your rooting goes without vermiculite in the mix.

Seems awfully underdeveloped for 3 weeks.
What is your cfl distance?

well she went thru alot early. I have the cfl lights about 2 inches away. I am using just 2 6500 bulbs for now. I have a bigger light on the way.

yeah ill also say perlite is fantastic when mixed with something like coco, but on its own it doesnt really hold much of the water/nutrient as its mainly used for creating greater airflow through mediums

But but it does work good in a hempy bucket.

perlite works great in a hempy, just make sure to water everyday, perlite doesnt hold moisture well
