First time grower here! Looking for advice, comments, suggestions. Trying to get better and learn everyday so feedback is important to me! Okay here we go....

Here are my specs:
4x2x5 tent
400w led light-full spectrum
Happy frog-75% perlite-25%

I am on day 6 since soaking seeds.

* I had a little issue and had to remove plants from light source and tent on day 3 for about 8 hours.
* there is also a “burn” mark on one of my leafs- not sure what that is all about.

Looks good! .. consider 20% perlite next time

Couldn't see the spot you were talking about they look a little stretchy ..get light closer, but make sure it's not burning them by holding your hand right where the plant level is for about 30 seconds and get a feel for how hot it is

also don't be afraid to support them if they looked a little long I use little shish kebab sticks, some people use chopsticks but it really helps

Use a pH meter to bring your water to 6.5. Don't overwater, let dry a little bit between watering, but don't let seedlings dry out
-good luck!

Im thinking of adding CFL bulb 40 W to my tent to help with stretching. Thoughts? besides stretching any issues i should be addressing?

Thanks

Re-pot now into your final pot (they will outgrow those cups rapidly, and you can bury them a little deeper), and put them into your tent with the light around 18" above your plant.
You won't need the CFL
Do it as soon as possible, like yesterday.
Oh, and you don't have to soak seeds, just place them in your cups in moist germination mix., that's all they need.
Good luck.

Thanks Justin
