in the first 2-3 weeks i did foliage watering where i just sprayed the leaves top and bottom and made sure the soil around the stem was fairly moist. so just make sure all those ends are covered. btw how far away are the lights from the plant??
imo they look a little strected out. but then again it could just be the angle the pic was taken from.
i would take the foil from around the rim of the pot due to hot spots that could occour.
all in all good job

They look a little more stretched than they would be if veged under a MH, but that can't be helped. They look very healthy.
What causes those sunspots is usually if there's limited ventilation (not always tho). Plants love foliar spray/feeding during veg, but if there's inadequate ventilation to dry the excess water off, it sits on the leaves for hours and magnifies the light, causing sunspots (the more intense the light, the worse the burn/spots). It's the same when you mist clones and then the water sits there cause there's not enough fresh air coming in, your clones wilt and start to rot or get mold and that sort of thing. As long as there's a source of fresh air (or a fan blowing round for rooted plants [not for clones]) then the excess droplets of water should dry out long before any sunspots or other problems can arise. This is of course talking about indoor growing.
Your doing well so far mate, looking real nice.
(And don't let my low number of posts fool you, I'm new here but have grown a lot of plants for a long time haha)
Cheers all!

Thx For all the tips(keep e´m komin)
I do have a fan blowing inside the growing room 24/7....but just enough to rattle the plants a little but not Blowing straight on my babys, ive never had any problem with sun spots
Started feeding C02 today!!
i will try to keep updating pics as the grow goes on!!!

Yea a little fan should be enough to prevent water sitting on leaves.
Have fun with the C02, I've never used it before, and never will, even my hydro store guy says there's no point to it if you've got decent airflow bringing in fresh air constantly, but a lot of people will tell you it's great, matter of personal opinion I think.

Plants stretch toward the light, the less light there is, the more they stretch to reach it. The more light there is, the less need they have to stretch to reach it and so bush out more. That's the basic version of it haha.

depends on the light but normally just put the lights closer and ur good about 12-18 inches away from the top of the plant

Depending on what kind of lights your using. You can put fluros and CFLs closer than that. A fluro can be kept about 1-2 inches above the plants in a lot of cases
