Tell us more about the seedlings

What's the blue ring at the rim of each cup?

Could be over watering

Do the cups have drain holes in the bottom?

All I had was blue clearish solo cups when I planted, they do have holes, and since then I put the red under them to cover up the clear outside to hide the roots.

Yah, I think it is overwatering, going to let them be for a while.

In other news, the heater on a test run to see if the thermostat works, I did not have set correct and I fried one of my plants!! I will have to come up with something else to manage heat :(

it's sad, sad, sad..... I'll have to play doctor for awhile to see if I can recover it. (it's sorry looking and I feel like shit about it)

OUCH. Panel too close?

Not to worry, lots more of those leafs coming.

Trim the burned parts of the affected leafs above the 2nd node. I would start defoliating below that.

Removing primary leafs below 3rd node will allow more light to the lower branches/nodes:hump:

since you've double cupped, put ~ 1" of gravel or perlite inside the red cup to help drain

Fuckin Hell! The heater did that?????!!!!!! :o.
Yep, I was trying to figure out a way for when lights are off, since it gets below 50 in the garage.

Lots and Lots of new growth and really a healthy plant already, It'l recover since my trim job, just sucks I was so close to flower.

Damn brother, sorry about your luck, keep on top of it, it was healthy enough it should recover, a delay would be better than starting over, good luck...

With the remodel of my cab I'm thinking of moving my 150w led to the lower seedling/ clone cab area and then looking for a 300w in the upper cab.

Doing some research now, have about $200 to spend

Well they are pathetic and I hate the thought of starting over, but am going to run out of my stash before the summer season is done :(

So I ordered two auto flowers today, hoping to get them done by mid June to tide me over.

I guess I'll start a new journal for the autos.

I'm getting some other seeds for outdoor started also.

And I'm going to order a 300w for the upper section of my cab.

I have yet to finish a full cycle indoor, but I refuse to give up.

I learned from my mistakes and enjoy the shit of the whole process and will keep at it... stay tuned.

Good attitude oregon, keep tweaking, it'll come together, nice that you have the option to grow outdoor for some (more or less) free summer crop. Indoor's a whole different ball-game, I grew for many years outdoor and initially thought, ok, just throw some lights into a cabinet, grow some weed, ha! Not even close to growing outdoors, but it's a lot of fun, as long as you enjoy it and take something away from each run, it's all good.

Another thought for your short term smoke, if you have some seeds or access to some clones, throw them in 12/12 from the get go, you should see the size of some of these plants. Just throw them in 1gal containers and 12/12 from the get go, 9-11 weeks and you'll have something to get you by, do a SOG with a bunch of small plants. Check out the 12/12 from seed thread, it's amazing what can come out using this method...

Yah, outdoor was easy... this indoor shit is fun but tough!

My auto flowers have already been shipped (herbies kicks ass)

I'm digging in backyard now and just got paid, so looking for another led.

Germinating tons of seeds for outdoor now, got white widow, Kerala skunk, and purple kush

I have hundreds of purple kush seeds

Maybe I'll throw some purple kush in 12/12 from seed in my new cab area also

For sure, use a bunch of those purple kush seeds you have in at 12/12 and fill the cab, you'll get a couple of ounces in short time while you're getting the outdoor going. Good luck.

Well, I bought a 500w reflector LED :) it arrives tomorrow hopefully

Put the 150w in the lower seedling/veg area

I ordered some autoflower's (northern lights and blueberry bliss) to get going for indoor and I spent the last week making a raised flower bed and making soil for it. Man, that's a ton of soil and expensive!!

I'll start a new journal/post for the 500W as soon as it arrives and I get things going in it :)

Sweet, good luck! Just wondering which panel you're referring to, haven't seen a "500W" panel in those reflector/LG/green panels, seen "450W" (actual 200/300W) which are the one's I'm currently running in my veg cabinet and flowering room. Next size up seems to be their "600W", just wondering if these are newer models?
