First time growing any help would be sick

[Benji620]

I have some yellow leaves on the bottom of my plant and I feel like I’ve been over watering but would like anyone’s opinion.

PH of water going into soil 6.8
Drainage only took from 1 pot(6.4)
Should I test every pot??


I also am curious about my lights and if they need to be dimmed down or if they are to bright or if that’s even a thing lol thanks fellas

your in soil?
so there’s nutes in it?
if you feel you’ve been watering to frequently than you probably are..
she doesn’t need much water when watering, like a shot glass or so..
all she needs is water when needed, light doesn’t have to be real close, temp, humidity, airflow.. and left alone..

Hi. I'd say wait it out and see. Seedlings do some weird shit sometimes, let her grow. Give her enough light and don't overwater and she should be fine. Not all seedlings are as strong as their siblings......"the stone that the builder man refused, shall be the head cornerstone"

 

[Benji620]

Right on perfect fellas!! I’ll keep y’all tuned in

One of those lights running at the top of the tent would help.

 

[Dub_City405]

Drop that ph under 6.3 never give higher than 6.3

Sorry not understanding. Just one light would be enough? Or raise one to the top of the tent is what you are saying?

 

[GNick55]

what lights you got
t5’s? led’s?
led’s i can’t help with..

 

[Benji620]

1500 LED

 

[GREENSOURCE]

1500 LED

Turn at

1500 LED

Unplug 1, dim the other for now.

Sorry, seemed simple.
too much light. Take one out for now Raise one up to the top in the middle.

 

[Benji620]

Alright now I got it thanks a bunch boys!!
When should I be thinking about turning the other light back on?

Dimmed down to about half way. These things are so bright crazy

 

[Mr.GreenthumbOG]

Watch them stretch, adjust lights accordingly.

 

[Mr.GreenthumbOG]

There’s a learning curve with LED.
takes a while to watch and learn, when to dial up, dial down.
unless you have a proper light metre, best to follow manufacture recommendations.

seedlings don’t want the bright full sun.
that's why Babies cry when they bust out the womb.

 

[ThatRapperWeed]

As someone said, lower the ph of your water. What soil are you using? Might be a bit hot.

 

[Benji620]

Black and gold organic soil
With some perlite
Gonna snag some PH down tomorrow

I'm just curious, why are people saying to water in the low 6's for PH in soil? I always read to vary your water from 6-6.8, never staying at one PH.
