Thanks for taking the time to help. Much appreciated!

I have a manual. To me that kinda seems like one opinion of many. I mean, it's not specific to what I'm growing, and that led me to do a I search. It also doesn't mention if the distance they are suggesting are at 100% power. I assume since they don't mention the dimmer setting is on full...

My space is 2'x3.5',and it's just to start things. I don't plan on trying to finish anything. With so much going on i needed a light that would veg my area better. So, yeah... To make things more confusing........ I have too much going on in there with a prop tray with rooters, some young...

I'm thinking about putting together a small low $ plywood box out of materials I have on hand. I needto work towards getting a proper seedling environment made that I can (eventually) successfully control, and grow my seedlings out for the first 10-14 days every time. It'd be uninsulated...

Both his plants that are in pic #! are auto's as is mine. I think his pots are 2 gallon? Mine are in 3 gallon fabric pots.

No ppm meter, and not sure what EC is. I agree on the containers, and voiced my opinion when he planted. In fact, he and I were just discussing it again last night. I didn't have much trust in the soil ph probe type meter I had, so I bought litmus paper and while digging a little soil out of...

No store bought cal mag or store bought nuets, but I fed some homemade from eggshells and vinegar 5 days ago. I added just 1 1/2 Tsp of it to a gallon of compost tea. My compost is made with leaves, grass, and veggie scraps, and composted horse manure. My tea was steeped with the compost...

Lastly here's #4 . These leaves were on bottom. Different ( better) soil mix on this one. This one had the highest ph @ 7.0. We've been watering with rainwater. It ph'd a fuzz less than 6.

Here's #3

Here's plant #2 Center of pic in rear.

I have some issues, and I'd like an educated guess on what's going on. Ph was pretty good on all these at 6.5-7.0 at the high mark . The problem plant is pictured in the right rear. Plant #1

I had just watered it before pic. Top 1" was dry I've added perhaps 2 ounces of water in the last week.

Well It appears I saved one of the two I was trying to help open. In the above pic, the plant up front on the right is a few days older than the two I'd posted about. It's a different strain, and it's yellowing bad. In the above pics You can see it a bit and the tips are brown. I had these...

I have 2 of the exact same going, and also my first autos. One popped over a day before the other, and is still ahead of the other. To answer your question yours looks inline with what mine did. I transplanted early on, so that may be a bit of it if they were stretching for roots, but at 25...

I rounded up a spray bottle to mist them. I hit them up twice in 15 mins, reinstalled the domes on those two, and I now have the light 2 1/2- 3 " off the dome so 4 1/2" off the seedling. The light is pretty warm on my hand at 2-3" off, and at this height produces noticeably more...
