they were to make em gain a few inches before they started to leaf out.. i am a big fan of air movement around the soil.. i feel that it helps to keep the fungus and mold down in its place.. which is not in my grow rooms..
not there are 2 40w t-12 tubes above the lil plants and they seem to have stopped stretching cause the tube are only 2 inches or so above the tops of the babes..
always appreciate your input monkey..
