also it has sustained a bit of chemical burn, not much at all so i'm not to worried cause its been doing fine since, one of the biggest leaves are curled downwards and feel a bit brittle, i think this is from underwatering in the past but other peoples opinions would help:thumbsup:

I am worried about the first pic. It looks bit yellow in color. Rest of the plants look healthy. In short, a great start as being a new marijuana grower. With experience of growing marijuana, I am sure you will do wonders my friend!!!

Ya the first two leaves on all the seedlings i've had so far tend to have a yellow kinda colour but the rest of the leaves were fine so i removed the two yellow ones recently enough.

between 5 and 7 weeks... im using 3 cfls, 1450 lumens off each, i had them further away b4 but it made the plant stretch to much, it's now starting to flower so ill post up pics as soon as possible! :rastasmoke:

where are you going from here? those lights have served their purpose now you need more light. also you need to transplant soon. what kind of dirt and/or feed are you using? look into metal halides and high pressure sodium for lighting, because those lights you have will not finish the job for you.

I've often heard and seen pics of the end result of grows with cfls and they seem to be fine, fair enough i won't get such a big yield off it but im only looking for between an ounce or two.. ill post up pictures today, im using perlite mixed with a bit of home made compost i got off a friend, and i change the feed regularly, i use creatine, muscle gainer and tomatoe food, seems to be doing the job so far.
