not speaking for anyone but myself, best bet is to place lights as close as possible without burning the plants and turn all fans up until soil dries out.

what he said.:)

Water sparingly from now on. I would use a rooting horomone to make the roots fill up the pot faster...if circumstances allow...

I have a soil moisture/ph meter that is pretty reliable for the price range. It helps when I have someone else tend garden for me.



Its reliable enough for me. The ph reading w/meter= run off ph (within a tenth or two). On the moisture feature...it keeps green peas from overwatering...what can I say?....lol....it works.

I got in a conversation one time and heard a guy saying you gotta spend big money for a good soil ph meter. Maybe so for dead nuts scientific readings...but for what we do, its fine,....as always, IMHO

peace and good luck
