I hope you guys are right! ^^ I just got a little worried when i seen others that where two weeks old and twice the size but i guess magic is right about the roots Also is that about the normal height for a viparLED? Im guessing you don't just use the hanging kit that comes with it? You would need some sort of adjuster (It's lowered with 2 bungee cords atm lol) or have i had too much to smoke?:stylez rasta smoke:

Vipar 600w: 315w actual draw.

Actually it should be 360w from the wall. Their store has their 500w = 307 actual draw watt which is.
(LEDwts/ 2 )+ 20% = draw.

yeah its a rough scale but waiting on their email to confirm, but that is a standard formula for china made LEDs on other fourms.An vipar on their other listing seems to follow the formula no real reason 600w shouldnt


But not to hijack your thread, that really doesnt seem to have enough space for 9 of them unless you plan on SOG or stunting them especially pretty myuch being in 4gal pots IMHO. But the W/PP (40 watts per plant) should help stay smaller but they really will get competitive. I know in my 2x4x7+ with 3 plants/5gal soil @ 38days they are already getting the 1.5-2sqft marker(87w/pp GNLEDx2) Watt/PP is key IMHO but other I have heard have the guide of 50w+ actual led draw watts per plant is the general guide on LEDs.

(before you ask, 2sqft x 3 wouldt fit, 2 Full sized girls and 1 dwarf pheno)

I wouldnt go for more then 6 in that space and let em get big & do their thing IMHO. GRAIN OF SALT MATE,in case you have a issue with mold later into Flower.




But hey best of luck BRO, and I'm subbed

They do look pretty small for 2 weeks from seed, What are your temps in the room? what are you feeding them?
Ph of the water before feeding? Ph run off?
How much h2o in a feeding?

Ill try and help as best I can
A couple days past 2 weeks mine for you to see (not bragging or putting you down, I am just a visual learner. Maybe you are 2:wg's Cool. They should be showing sex at the 2 week marker so something is wrong,they still look a few days old seedlings or maybe week 1

The temps are around 65f i think and with the water i just put it in a bottle and leave the cap off for 24 hours... the ph tester for the soil says 7.

Also i thought you don't feed them anything for the first 3 weeks ? only water?

Cheers

WOW:stoneslap: man you need to raise the temps ASAP!!! If those are the running temps durning the day cycle! ideal temps are 73-78 * never above 84 @ canopy level it will stress them out (give or take dep on strain and origin), remember how dense your growing media. My room is 75-77* and soil is at 70 ish +- 1or2,so -5-9* goin into media if your roots get cold they will slip into a hibernation type state. an not process anything and shut everything down, all growth above and below soil.

2. Thing you really need to get a actual Ph meter to control the soil ph for your plant and figure things out in detail.
ideal soil ph for cannabis in soil is 6-6.5 , hydro 5.8. Without measure ph before it is really hard to control its need if it is getting nutrient lock out later in your grow and will really be noticeable in the short veg cycle and limit your yeild considerably. Remember the whole point of growin inside is that we have complete control of the variable and why the quailty has skyrocketed after the 70s. get a actual ph meter is more accurate to measure the run off and figure out if your soil has problem like lockout or deffienc issues.


You should head over to the new grower section, lots of great info there. An tons of more seasoned greenthumbs there to help you out if something else happens.

depending on your media and your strain, most soil medias have enough starter ferts in it to go 2ish weeks, Fox farms some say all the up to flower phase cuz its hot. Soilless like cocoa choir and etc have very little so you have more control. I with Roots organic Potting soil started a light feed at 2 weeks cuz my genetics seem to be maturing fast.

Ok well iv stuck a little oil radiator in there (check pics) so hopefully that should bring the temps up a bit... and i have ordered this water ph tester and ph up/down so hopefully this should sort the girls out! The Annoying thing is i got the led's so i wouldn't have a heat problem... Never expected not having enough heat :no:



Cheers for your help bud!
