What strength feed did you give the two times you fed her? I ask, because this may be nute burn and not light burn, they both look very similar.

What HM said. Can often be the cause..................eP.

I gave 1.5ml floragro
4ml floramicro
Both feedings, I gave her 2 feedings so far

May have been a little hot for the new seedling at 1 1/2 ml/L. Do you have a ppm or EC meter to test the concentration of your feeds? I see the GH feed chart for floragrow says 1 ml/L for seedlings. Normally for an autoflower, you take the recommended feed chart value and cut it in half. I think you torched her a little right off. I would recommend going at her with only water and CaMg the next time and see if things mellow out a little. Get that light up too.

ep is short for epenguin, the little waddling moniker he uses.

Thx bro I'm definitely gonna do dat. I have a ppm meter. question? What do I measure with it & what reading am I looking for from it?

You measure the ppm of your feeds. The more concentrated your feeds are, the higher the ppm. Plants vary from strain to strain and even phenotype to phenotype, but you should be in the range of 300 to 600 ppm. in the seedling stage. I start out at the low end, and slowly work up to the high end as she gets a little more age on her. I use RO water that has only like 12 ppm, many times tap water can run quite high. The poision coming out of my tap runs very high ppm and caused me much heartache in my earlier grow days. I switched to RO water and instantly solved many problems. Be sure to rinse both your pH and ppm meters with RO or DI water after every use. Make sure the ppm meters dries good after use, the pH meter should have a couple drops of RO/DI water dripped into the protective cap cover before putting it onto the meter.
