New grower needing help

Please are they getting enough light?


This is wat it looks lik from my phone

Meters, I should have said, pH and soil meters testers and gadgets etc.
So on that app or device do you see ppfd or PAR or DLI for light measurments? I havent used them but I kniw youre looking for around 300ppfd of light. Or DLI something in the 20’s. Requires holding a device under the lights to measure intensity

Not sure about “Autos”, but this was from MJ videos on UTb
Running 20/4 or 18/6, with lights ON, but OFF during max day heat, may help.


Hello @Gl1tch @LiesGrows

A peek at my grow! Soil has been helpful and uptill now, I really have not had issues except @Gl1tch or @LiesGrows spots 1 from the picture above

The first 2 would be hitting veg by Monday

Looking good so far only thing id recommend is getting your power bar up off the ground and out of the tent lol

I’m glad to see things are going better for you now. The girls look pretty happy. I would definitely agree with liesgrows. You wouldn’t want to accidentally slosh water into your power strip and it will also remove a little of the heat created by the transformers. Probably not a noticeable amount of heat but every little bit helps. I would also pull anything that doesn’t have a purpose in the tent like that box and dirt. Less places for mold and whatnot to grow. looking good happy growing bro

Thanks guys :blush: @LiesGrows and @Gl1tch
And as usual, I did what you suggested which is kicking the unwanted out!!
How’s my lst?

Looks like they are still a little small for training. When they do put on a few more nodes you can start bending the flexible growth at the top of the plant over to keep it parallel to the soil. Then you can start training the side branches out towards the edges of the pot to keep everything close to the same plane. The side branches will develop just above the leaf nodes you have staked now. I use landscaping staples and a spool of twist tie wire, but there is any number of ways to accomplish the same goal. Just keep an eye on any unsealed wood. It can be prone to mold growth.

Thanks for the update! I’d get the wood out asap

to be clear I do use wood in my grows it’s not inherently bad. At higher humidity you just need to keep an eye on it. You can also seal it with mineral oil or food grade linseed oil which will help a lot.

Just got to veg(2 weeks above ground) so I switched the light from seedling to veg and I’m presently on 40% of the light power on veg and the light seems much dimmer than 100% in seedling mode and par used to be about 300par in seedling 100% mode but reduced in veg mode 40% percent and plants are beginning to droop!
So my question is, should I increase light percent? @Gl1tch @LiesGrows @Jaysittinback @1LuckyMF @Storm



That’s my light

What’s the PPFD?
The different modes don’t matter, the PPFD is key. Did you get a meter?

Small light. Fire it up. 100%. Use height for adjustment.

Yes I did and ppfd is about 200

Ok thanks a lot :pray:
