New Grower Biobizz nutrients early.

Hello guys, so i watered her 2 days ago with 200ml i had a bit of runoff and now the leaves went down a bit, did i over watered her?

What should i do next, do i water her again or wait?

And also the 250W HPS light is at 25cm from her, should i raise it? It seems to me that she's doing some pretty intense work on growing but she is not really going up.

And how much more should i wait for the nutes feed. Monday she will be 2 weeks old from when she popped out of the soil.

The leaves will naturally go down every watering; they will perk up after an hour or two in light. I honestly only watered once a week in 3 gallon pots. My plants are 23 days old and yesterday I did my 3rd watering; my second feed. At first I was very worried about my plant growing vertically since it really wasn't... but sure enough they are starting to get taller now.. I wouldn't expect much vertical growth first two weeks. I did my first feed sometime after 14 days from planting; and the feed was at quarter strength. I added root juice on the first watering at 7 days and I did .5ml per L of it. My last feed at I did 2ml of root juice per Liter.. so basically double the strength every watering/feed. I hope this helps out! The light distance is debatable i have mine at about 40cm/16 inches but I don't run a cool tube just a normal reflector and I run a 600watt HPS so mine radiates a bit more heat than yours. The first two weeks I had it 30 inches sometimes even higher... I found myself micromanaging it a bit too much. As long as the back of your hand doesn't burn or feel uncomfortable then you should be fine.

Just noticed you did 200ml of water and you had run off... I would let your pot dry out a lot more before you water.. My watering consists of 2L of water and I only get maybe couple cm of run off.

Stealthgrower by far gave me the best piece of advice in regards to watering.

"This is extremely important and you will mess up your grow if you do not take this advice. Between waterings and feeds, you must let your soil dry out. I aint talking dry out a bit either. You want it like desert sand. Then water it like this. Pour little bit of water around the main stem, so there is a little puddle around the main stem. Then leave it for like 5 minutes whilst it soaks in. Then feel the weight of the pot. You need to water it very slowly, especially in those 11 litre square pots. DO NOT SATURATE THE SOIL!!! You are looking for a nice balanced watering with very little run off. Each time you pour some water on it, give it a few minutes to see if the run off starts coming out the bottom. When it does, you have watered it correctly. I cannot emphasise on the importance of leaving gaps of 2/3 minutes after pouring each bit on. I would use '1 litre maximum' of water/feed for 2 11 litre square pots. even if you have a bit left in the jug, if you are getting run, stop there! It may need less. If you pour too much on, you will saturate the bottom of the pot, the roots will then rot because they are too wet too often. You should also look at using airpots for 2nd grow. Buy a cheap moisture probe. Fairly accurate, but they give you a real good idea. Let it go bone dry between waterings and you will see great improvements."

Hello again guys, quick update, it's day 14, last time i posted the pictures it was right after the 4 hours darkness so that's why the leaves were down, i didn't over water her.
So my question now would be why is it so small still, i can see all thoes leaves growing but not in height, i dropped the light to about 23cm, will probably drop it a little lower, temps are 25-27 day, mostly 25 and 20-22 night, RH is 40-50%.

Posted some pictures please tell me how she looks.
Thanks

Hey guys, so i just figured out i had a major light leak from the intake, i fixed that now but some light went thru every time. Could this be why she was stressed and didn't grow that much?

Hello guys, week 3 day 1 update, i just watered her a few hours ago, the soil was so dry it took about 900ml of water so i can have a drop of run-off, i gave her some nutes too (2ml of root juice, 1ml of heaven and 1 of grow) and I also used the method from Stealthgrower leaving gaps of 5 min.
So as you can see in the pictures there are some yellow leaves, when i watered thoes leaves got some water on them, i gently took the drops with my finger, can that burn the leaves if the water had nutrients?
Or do I have another problem?

I really crave for some advices or opinions on how it looks.

PS : She grew a little but she's really small and compact there are so many new leaves in there.
