If you look closely, there is a tiny brown spot on one of the edges of the leaves (it's off-center). I don't think it's heat stress as there's not much heat generated from the bulb I'm using. I can even touch it and it doesn't burn. Could it be nute burn, a mild, very mild, case?




This is the set-up

I have watered her with not more than 3/4 of a gallon in which there is 2 tablespoons of Big Bloom.
 
Yeah. I plan to. But since it's been growing, I was under the impression that, for now, this lone bulb will suffice. I forget, how many lumens does it have to be to support her through the veg period?
