hi there. i am having a problem with a plant that is only still under two inches tall. Dont get me wrong, i have grown before and come out with a good crop. Okay, this litle plant has been growing for only four days now and it is nice and short and already with a 3 paired leaf and starting on its third node. doing pretty well growth wise, but i have noticed that there was a brown tip on the first set of leaves. it has not yet affected the other leaves, and im hoping it doesnt. i am using a dilute solution with distilled water of organic liquid seaweed and tomato feed. also perlite, vermiculite, and compost, whilst a 400watt hps is blasting away. maybe it is getting too hot in there, or too many nutrients, or overwatering, so many things, but i dont know what it is! please, somebody help!
Also the light is pretty far away (18inches) , im using a propogator tank and jiffy pots that you later plant into the main pot, watering once a day with dilute solution, although i have been using a 1l bottle to feed them, and there were specific instructions for both nutrients to dilute them in 9l and 4.5l of water, i accuratly poured the minimized solution into a one litre bottle, and later on diluted it. so i dont think its a overnuting prob? any one got any ideas, please tell me.
thanks
