leaves crispy

I know this probably has been asked more then once. I transplanted my seedlings about three days ago and the leaves are starting to get crispy. What could cause this and how to fix it. Temp is 80-85 humidity is around 30%. I'm using 4 bulb t5 about 3in from plant.

Welcome to RIU!

Typically I find crispy leaves when my lamp is too close, but I don't know if 3" is too close for T5's as I've never used them.

I know that Riddleme (@RM3 ) uses T5's exclusively... hopefully he'll see I've tagged him in this post so he might be able to weigh in.

IMO 3 inches is too close for seedlings, should be more like a foot.

but hard to say without pics?

thanks for your help. Yea hopefully he will be able to give me some advice

oh k thanks. I'll move them up. I tried loading pics but it wont let me.

You do realise you can't smoke them buds after you spray with cs? Toxic as!

I do realise that I can't smoke the bud I spray, I just want some seeds...just wondering about the cross of two females.

You're right, this is not the place to post this. Hijacking someone else's thread before they have even had a chance to get the answers they are looking for is kind of rude. Why wouldn't you just post your own thread? You'll get more people looking at it who have am interest in your specific question and you won't be clogging up the OP with shit that is irrelevant to his question.

'Taint neither.
CS.. is and has been used for ages as a old time medicine. Google it.

STS is the one you want to stay away from. You may have them mixed up.

CS is a simple silver oxide. Reacts with the copper in the plant.

Pretty simple. CS the one you want to get pollen from and apply to the other. You'll want to most likely start the one to be reverted about 3 weeks prior to the receiving gal. That's 12/12 time,, not germinating. Both plants could be a chosen clone,, cloned again, cross with CS (cloned) seeds and back breed for stability.

EDIT,,
One could essentially get a easy 100 seeds from no more than a pair of Dixie Cups. Then again,, Grow as normal, CS one branch of each,, cross them both ways. (Same 2 dixie cups optional or full sized plants. ) You don't need to seed / breed a whole plant. but it's easier I think.
Though not absolutely required... I strongly suggest one to pick mature stock for breedings. Pulling stock from the 4th or more node above where they start to stagger would be a good start.
