I'm growing 4 Purple Express (freedom seeds) and 1 Ultra Lemon Haze (auto seeds).

The purple express are in 5 gal. pots and the ultra lemon haze is in a 3 gal. pot.

FFOF and Light Warrior for soil.

600watt HPS/MH lighting.

Ok...my ultra lemon haze has sprouted. 4 days since I planned my germinated seeds. It was ok when it first came up but now the leaves are dropped over. I don't know if its fine or if I watered it to much. I watered it 2 days ago and I watered again today. About 1/4 each time. The light is 25 inches away. Temp stays in the 70s and humidity is kinda low in the 20s. Is this normal.
 
FFOF and LW are a little to strong for most autos but I think (they) you'll survive. There should be plenty of nutes in the soils to keep them fed for at least 3-4 weeks and maybe more so just plain PH'd water for a bit. Also watering.... You could be watering to much.
Check the weight of your pots, if they feel heavy don't water. If they fell lighter then they look like they should, then they need water. Most common mistakes of new growers is watering to much. If you have any pics we can diagnose a bit better. Good luck bro and head over to introductions and say hello :Sharing One:Welcome to AFN
 
Yea I'm trying to upload some pics now but seems like it won't work. I went to the manage attachments but obviously I can't figure it out. I'll get it soon as I can tho. I figured ffof was pretty strong that's why I used light warrior but I planned on holding of on the nutes for awhile. Honestly I wish I would of got a strain a lot of ppl have grown.

Haha that's actually one picture. My dropping seedling.
 
They'll be fine bro, just hold off on the watering and let them dry out before you water again. You'll need to get your humidity up a bit as well. :Sharing One:
 
Yea I'm working on getting a humidifier but until then you got any advice on how to raise the humidity up. I think its in the high 20s now. Also how close should I keep my light before I start dropping it slowly. 600watt hps/mh I'm using the mh right now until flowering. Its a hood reflector I'll upload a pic of my setup.

Put this in google and you will get charts that you can use further.

To dry? You can easily solve your problem with transparent plastic cover for plants which costs very little.


I can not upload picture, do you get an idea what I mean?
