Hey everyone.
I need some pointers on what to do with my setup. Iv got the basics down but, i feel like my seedlings are not responding the way they should be.
Currently im running x3 45watt 5500k CFL bulbs. And x1 28watt 5500k. U also have x4 25watt 4000k bulbs which are NOT in use? Or should they be?
Im now at day 6. On day 1 the seeds were already sprouted, and put in soil.
Its been a very long time since iv had a crack at growing dope, but i feel like these are a lot slower than the plants i used to grow. One of my previous grows consisted of only a single plant under a single 5500k Phillips 13watt CFL if i remember corrwctly, and that plant grew like it was on steroids, the only thing i added to the pre mixed pre fed soil it had, was a bit of old cow dung for the added nitrogen during veg, and that plant for some reason grew like something out of a movie. Along with every other plant iv grown. But my current seedlings have been slow. Or am i, just being to rushy? At what point do they usually start really taking off? If im correct all strains are Indica. The seedling in the pic attached is the one im most worried about. Also is x4 5500k bulbs even ok to grow? Overall there is 160watts of CFLs above the seedlings. My seedlings, arent overwatered, or underwatered, they have nutrients innthe soil but nothing to the point where it would could any lockout or burn. In theory the seedlings should be very happy. The only thing i dont have control of is moisture. Im not intirely sure how i can add moisture to the grow but, from general feel, it feels as though it may be slightly to dry the air qnyway. Im not sure if this could be causing this slow growth? Temps are under control. As you can see, the leafs arent really "awake" and upward, they look more sad in a way lol. When i switch the lights on, usually plants have got their leafs up like, essentially theyre awake you know, but mine are always down like its asleep or really down n out over something, then throughout the day the seeldings leafs slightly perk up then toward the end of the day they are back down again. I feel its not very happy but i cant figure out why. Everythings pretty good so i need some advice haha. Pics attached.
Also any tips for my grow setuo would be much appreciated. I do not have access to 6500k bulbs unless they are standard e27 screw type LED bulbs. Where i am 6500k CFL arent avaliabke only the regular LED bulb. but 5500k with all these larger photography style CFLs bulbs should be more than enough for veg. Should i switch one out for a 4000k? Just to add that extra spectrum of light? How can i add moisture to the grow room? Would leaving a bowl of water witg a fan blowing over it put any decent amount of mousture in the air as it evaporates slowly over the day or?
