I did water every day, but not alot, almost a week has gone by, and there still the same size, leaves are yellow and white, switched to a 125w cfl blue spectrum, today. using mircle grow mixed with some other soil i got from a nursey.

Pls any help would be appreciated.

ok. sorry over doing it from the word go.

your to early for the 400w and to close for seedlings .

next poss over watering.

then adding nutes early.

and don't use miracle grow without afew grows under belt.

it's not what you want, but you may want to start again and read alittle first and take things easy at first and you will be rewarded.

Thanks for the advice, so i guess i screwed up, but i will prevail, im hopeing that switching to the 125w cfl blue, will make the little gurls turn the corner, ive grown b4 and have had good sucess, but never started under the 400 hps, once again, thanks

would a 4 foot 6 bulb t5 fixture with mixed bulbs around 4 to six inches from the tops of 3 six day old plants cause them not to grow? what i mean, is the light too close?
