1st Grow. Closet - Cali Orange - CFL's
First of all, thanks a bagill for all the responses. I thought i knew alot after doing so much research, but there is always more to learn.
I dont use Miracle Grow ferts, ive been using Plant Product Ferts. I will look into other ferts as the garden store is literally across the road so i can check out the fertilizer situation. (I also need to get perlite when for the final transplant)
So some superthrive, superbloom for flower (I assume theyre made by the same company)
Also when i do that final transplant should i get new soil thats ferted? Or just grab unferted and fert it myself?
Why i seperated them is simply because i needed somewhere in the middle to mount lights. Tonight when i return with more lights i'll see if there is a easier way to mount them. If Canuck Tire doesnt have mylar ill get more white posterboard for the time being.
Well tonight i go shopping again! Thanks for all the advice guys, time to spark a morning bowl and check on the plants.

Hi if you see my grow I use organic Pure Blend nute. I'm not saying that 20-20-20 won't work, it is just easier to save a plant from nute issues with a lower NPK count and one more conducive to natural environment.
Also (you can take this with a grain of salt) but I find that 20-20-20 is such a high concentration, that it get's into the taste of the MJ even with exstensive flushing methods. Just my experience-MG is also the same with a little less harsher taste.

I don't want to scare you just want you to see good results and be able dialing in your methods for optimum cultivation and smooth pure MJ smoke in the end.
Oh and Pure Blend Grow by Botanicles is 1.0 N, 0.5 P, 1.0 K
Bloom is .5,.5,1 NPK if I read the bottle correctly. Check my post it has a close-up.
Good Growing

Oooh okay, i completely understand what you're saying now. I'm going to move towards getting ferts like that soon. I appreciate all the info, all is clear now.
unfortunetly Canuck tire told me "Come back in a few days" again because the tools wont restock on 6500ks and only have 2700ks, so im held up waiting for lights.

Ugh. I got overworked and tired and didnt check the plants for about a day and two leafs grew to close to the lights and had the tips fried. Ugh, i'm a idiot. I adjusted accordingly.
Also on the plants the first, first set of leafs (the ones in the seeds) have yellowed off and died. I assume this was normal (i even read elsewhere on one journal it was) however now the first set of leafs (the ones that are just a indistinct leaf with no blades) are getting a bit icky.
On some they're a tad light green/yellow and on one they've died off.
I'm thinking -this- is the ferts fault so i'm going to hold off on the ferts for a bit and give them some R&R. The ferts have helped growth as their heights are between 6-9 inches, however i dont want to risk further damage.
I hope the stress isn't too bad, i'm definetly going to veg 2-3 weeks longer unless there are signs of some serious rapid growth and healing.
Pics are delayed until i can upload them to the gallery.
