When should i switch my lights??
    #227350 - 05/17/09 09:22 PM (15 years, 9 months ago)

So this is my first time growing a plant and im pretty rusty on the technique. Ive got a plant that ive been growing since the day after 420 its doing pretty good. but when should i change the lights over, right now its got a 150 watt indoor grow light that i got from rural king.

Ive got a journal, check it out and tell me what you think plz?

Why do i need more height out of my setup. my plant is 3 inches tall and has about 12 leaves on it already. Check out my journal. Ive got plenty of pics on there.

ic ic. i was going to add another tote when the plant reached the top of the planter, but as you can see it just doesnt seem to want to get any taller. Your saying i should lower the light to about 4-6 inches away?

im nervous to lower the light anymore cause of what happened to the other plant, the plant that died was right under the ballast of the light, the good plant is under the bulb. ill work on ventilation and see if i can improve that a little bit first.

Also how much longer should i keep this light on the plant? My friend told me that it was a good light for vegging but not for budding.

then what burned up the other plant, it kept growing but it never got much bigger those pics were all taken at the same time both plants were the same age, and the leaves would get long and burn up at the ends. I just figured it was because it was at the base of the light where all the heat was coming from.

yeah it was very alive but not up to par lol he had to be let go.

Heres the mix thats in the soil.

has a small layer of dirt, then vermiculite, then a 2 inch layer of dirt with a layer of Osmocote slow release plant food for vegetable and bedding. then there is a large layer of soil mixed with a small amount of food.

i was high, seemed like the right thing to do??? lol
