Just transplanted my seedling into my 4 pot wilma, just getting their 2nd set of leaves. (might have put them in too early but hey its done now!)
I have them under a 600watt light, extractor w/ carbon filter and ocilating (sp*) fan. only have 3 plants, 1 was a bad seed and had damping off.:(
they are dutch passion FLO (feminised)
Just wondering when i should set the timer to water them, their on 1/4 strength nutes, i dont want to drown them.
Wilma has the arrow drippers on. Also found my humidity quite low (20%) so ive just put a jug of water in there hopefully that might help for now?

Any other advice would be appreciated for a first timer!!

Thanks

Hard to say without knowing what media you are using... and what kind of setup it is.

don't what you're doing, or who wilma is, but, unless it's a hydro setup, you shouldn't be feeding them yet ... if in soil, let them grow to 3 or 4 sets of branches, first ... you can also back off that big lamp, until you feel they've rooted well ... if you are in soil, and are just using an automatic water timer, I have no idea, never did that ... good growing ! :smokin:
