help please

I promise if you answer all my questions and help me out I will follow YOUR instructions to the letter!!!

Since my Hindu is already flowering I thought I’d get a new one so that I can have a perpetual supply, so now, I have a 9 week Hindu and a 2 week old Purple. They are both Kushes and they are both Clones.

Let me start with the Purple Kush.

She is a clone and I transplanted her 2 weeks ago to my phototron which has six Biax Bulbs but I'm not sure if they are - 40 Watt or - 55 Watt. On top I have a Double SL-20 Socket Kit with 2 SL-20 Lamps, I believe this is called a germination Bulb. I put Aluminum Foil on top of each circular bulb to throw the light back down to the plant.

**First pic is a close up of the bulb, second has a Broom for scale.

Am I doing things ok?? Do I have the right components for this one??

For the Hindu.

Let me just say that since this was my guinea pig (learning) Plant… I have put her trough some Bullshit and back…from transplanting to lighting to feeding and Housing I know I’ve been messing up Badly.

I built a Grow Box and placed her in there with a 660W-125V Bulb and turn the lights on and off every 12 hours (5am – 5pm) I painted the inside Flat white since I hear that was the best choice, but I still don’t have ventilation in there I just open the door when it’s light time and have a fan blowing on both.

My problem with the hindu is that it looks very weak and wilting, my questions are as follows.

Are these the flowers I’m waiting for?

The Bulb is 660 W Not the housing right??

Is this bulb ok for flower?

This is the inside of my box - https://www.rollitup.org/members/snappy-albums-updated-hindu-purp-picture60474-hindu-light.jpg - I placed a broom for scale again. Is the light too far from the plant?

Is my plant withering because the paint was not fully dry when I placed her in there or because there is no ventilation in there?

For soil I use miracle grow planting soil and for food I use this every other week - https://www.rollitup.org/members/snappy-albums-updated-hindu-purp-picture60475-plant-food.jpg - but I am skeptical now since I think is too strong, how do you think I should ration this?

I hope that wasn’t too much, thanks in advance for taking the time, any help you can give will be appreciated.

it looks like your wasting a lot of space for that one plant, should really have a few in there at least. The lights in the box look like fluoros, in which case they are too far from the plant, lumens on HO fluoros only stretch to 10-12 inches from the source. Light should feel warm on the back of hand, thats where plant should be maybe an inch or two back. Ventilation is very important, use a computer fan or small duct booster as both fan and vent. The pic of the plant is not the preflower, its the new growth on the top which will form the cola, look at the nodes just above the secondary growth, and compare to charts in the FAQ.. any other q's than pm me .. think ur on my list already

the plant in the bucket needs way more light, the room should be so bright, you need sunglasses to comfortably look around. That light your using needs to be HID high intensity discharge, if it isnt theres not enough lumens reaching your plant, especially from that far away. For a room that big at least a 400w HID, or 800w of fluoros surrounding the entire box. You should tan, literally from being in there, you want the lights to change the temp in the box by at least 10-15 degrees just for being on. As for feed, doesnt really matter until flower, too little yellowing and too much burns, other than that doesnt matter. Flowering i like to feed half strength every feed or full strength once a week, pending on strains. Kush needs to be flushed a LONG time, close to a month, this will give it nice purple and tight buds.
