sorry if its in the wrong section,a friend of mine decided to have a crack at growing his own,a few seeds later and they've started to grow.started of as a laugh but now,you never now it might work,
started of in normal soil and transferred in to individual pots with moss peat.
there outdoors all time,he's made this dome like thing with perspex.
temp inside is around 40/50 degrees through the day.
can someone point him in the right direction as what he should do next.
Thanks.

First thing you need to do is find out what stain they are, little if any of the seeds they sell in the shops stand a chance of finishing outdoors.

Second thing is look up a good soil recipe ( growers forums ) and read,read,read, it wont be long utill they'll need potting on.

Spend some time reading the forums or get a good book, learning as you go along is often a recipe for failure.

Looks like a slight case of overwatering and nute burn, if your not deeding the plants anything but water yet it could be that the soil is too hot (there are already nutes in the soil and that are too strong for a small plant)

MAke your own supersoil, anthing he has in the video can be found in Woodies or Atlantic home. Or if your near a B&Q your sorted
The best soil i found was in Woodies, its Called "West+" and its "all organic" and says it will feed plants for up 6 weeks, it works fine for vedge plants but mix it up with additives and it will make some killer soil

OK i messed up i had them under warm white cfls.now i have 2x2foot cool white floros,18w 1350lm 15000hr.i don't think its enough.i can't afford the real macoy,haven't got enough room to add more floros.any ideas.

history.
started them outdoors(fine)
made a grow room,put under wrong lights(got sick)
now under the 2 florosany

any ideas on weather my light situation will be sufficient enough to keep them going.


but on the plus side they look a bit healthier.
