Plants 4 weeks, but only 4 inches??
- Thread starter dewby
- Start date
cool
so I started out with a bunch of seeds I found in a half, germinated them in a wet rag for 3 days or so then threw them in the soil. everything was fine until I was forced to keep them in my trunk for 5 days, only being able to give them 2 or 3 hours a day within 3 of those 5.
so I finally get a place, picked up some organic compost soil (yes I know) that we just saw sitting in the parking lot of an apt complex, threw the best seeds in the 10 pots we had and just basically kind of neglected them after that. just yesterday we finally went out and bought them new soil, lights transplant them and what not, 310W fluorescent, 50W HPS. we were able to salvage six of them that look fairly healthy, and now have them in this cloest system compared to sitting in a bedroom with 4 tiny 75 watt plant lights in the fan fixture. some of the leafs look kind of burnt, but not too bad. just on one leaf on 2 of the plants I believe. here are some pics.

yeah. I really don't know. the earliest it'd be is 2 to 3 weeks, but even then they should be at least twice that size.

I read that if you use a birth control pill per gallon of water for your plants that it will give it a special something and they will grow better. Does anyone know if that is true?
no reason to throw the baby out with the bath water... as long as ur plants are alive, the genetics are intact. Soil doesn't seem to be ur problem, you could have some pH issues, who knows.... but, obviously, lighting is ur biggest issue. those lights look totally undersized. you should at least have (3) 4' ft 2 bulb flourescent fixtures over them 6500k bulbs straight up (switch to 2700k spectrum for flowering) ... like was already said, withing 1-2 inches of the plants if not slightly touching them.
