notice the cut in the cup...i think the soil got too far down when i watered them some drained threw the bottom so the top was kinda high...plus # 2 was just planted as seed while # 1 was germed in paper towel then planted...
other than that who knows they are the same distance from the lights |

Dont throw that 20-20-20 unless it's the last days before harvesting.
Think it's too hard for babies. Post more shots! |

Looks like your doing a fine job!
Your right though I do remember Red's thread saying to fert every other watering & water only when dry. I just got the blanket installed in the lower tub, will be fitting in the light tomorrow, I forgot to get more bolts & nuts to install the fans & lights. Guess I should not have taken that last bong hit before I went to H D. I'll being watching to see how the 20-20-20 works for ya. I have a bag in the shed of some Peter's 20/20/20. |
