Hello everyone, just thought I should say this is a great site, I've learn so much from it.
This grow is going to be entirely in a tote, I will use the lst method, going to add more reflective stuff if I can find it, just put it in some key areas for now.
I've started 2 plants from 3 year old bagseed! about a month ago. I have moved everything into a tote with a charcoal fan/filter, I will probably add another.
a 23W fluorescent light on A, and a 14W fluorescent on B, just after checking this, I'm wondering of the light is too close, causing the initial browning. Those lights are being suspended/held in place by high temp thermal tape.
I'm also going to try using lots of LEDs for lighting, I got a few hundred high intensity ones, just need to solder everything up.
For the first 3 weeks I used a desklamp fluorescent 27W 6400K light, during that time, the first leaf set wilted a bit. I try to water every other day, or when the soil is dry. Soil is some generic Hyponex , and I have not used any nutrients.
Lights are about 3 inches/7.6cm above plants. Temp is 84F/29C. Light cycle since spouting is 16/8
Plant B had a rough start when I transplanted it I lost half the roots, but now its doing better than A. I though both maybe had a magnesium deficiency, so I mixed some epsom salt in a gallon water and started using that yesterday to water them. Anyone know if thats the case based upon these pictures?
Both are about 4inches/10cm tall
I'm also contemplating if I should set up a gallon jug and just have it drip
I'll appreciate any and all input during my grow
