I’m using 3 for now, I have a corner in my room blocked for starters, my vegitative are in the closet, and flowering blocked in another room, I’m waiting for warmer weather so I can grow outdoors again so all my stuff is temporarily indoor all though this year had a great run with indoor so I’m gunna keep indoor going and start outdoor again when weather warms up lol. My starters get 24 hours of light vegitative are at 24 hours of light for first 2 months than 20/4 for a couple months and cycle keeps going, so keep in mind that’s just my way of doing it every one has different ways ---

Hmm, never heard them called water leaves before, that is interesting. I have heard them called fake leaves before, but the technical correct term is cotyledon, as I mentioned above, just FYI for everybody. > [@MacGyverStoner](#): > > The the cotyledon, also sometimes called the “embryonic leaves”, you can kind of think of them similar to a egg yolk, in that it is a stored amount of food, everything the young developing organism needs until it has developed enough, roots established enough, to survive on its own, and so this is why a seedling doesn’t really need any nutrients until it has reached this state/size of growth, which also indicates a well developed root system below ground that can then be healthy enough to take a decent dose of nutrients. > > ~MacG Happy growing, MacG ---

Thank You MacG. I see little things like this every time I grow. I do not worry about it. Also noticed a mention of using seed starting mix. This should have no nutrients. All you newer helpers here, please pay attention. Topic starter did not say he was using potting mix, so answering or talking about potting mixes pros and cons is moot. It also confuses inexperienced growers. Peace ---

said he was using organic soil, fertilizer, peat moss and perlite…and he was using MG… cameras pretty shotty but the bag says MG nutrients [https://scontent-lga3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xpf1/t31.0-8/fr/cp0/e15/q65/12469544\_114887962224864\_8657302038966104025\_o.jpg?efg=eyJpIjoidCJ9](https://scontent-lga3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xpf1/t31.0-8/fr/cp0/e15/q65/12469544_114887962224864_8657302038966104025_o.jpg?efg=eyJpIjoidCJ9) And I thought this whole thing was telling him get off the MG to prevent nute burn I was just seeing if I could get help as well ---

It is all good. I did not realize you needed help too. I use a seed starting mnix that contains only peamtm moss, vermiculite, perlite mychorrizae. No nutrients. Since I do not use MG seed starting mix; I did not realize it contained nutrients. Find another brand. Once again, and I don’t know how many times I need to tell everyone. If you want to make you own soil; Start with Promix BX, add sterile dirt 50-50 for a soil grow. For seed starting use as is. Get some 30 something -50 something cell starter trays and fill the cells with Promix. Promix costs me 35 bucks for a 4 cubic foot bag. This is cheap and lasts forever. Exactly what Professional nurseries use. It is what I use in my greenhouse if I am not using Oasis. it depends on the veggie I plant to sprout. Sorry for the misunderstanding. Sometimes it is best to start your own topic for clarity. Peace, 🙂 [Previous page](https://ilgmforum.com/t/help-my-jack-herers-has-yellow-tips-on-new-growth-only/1396.md?page=2)
