Need help, don't smoke but attempting to grow!
Hey all! I'm new to growing and pretty much anything cannabis ;p Because of my ignorance for my first time grow I germinated 5 seeds 2 weeks ago and am now trying to figure these ladies (hopefully) out. Needless to say they are only now getting their third set of leaves and it's slow going! It's been a bumpy road and I've researched like a crazy lady but still have questions. First: Lighting was not optimal in the begining and probably still isn't. Using 4 CFL 100W daylight bulbs 6500K about 4 in from plant. The tips (1/8 in) of a few plants are tuning a light brown. Is this my lighting? My other question is some of the leaes are in a V and then some are beding down..what could this be? I don't want to feed them as I just took them out of MG yesterday and don't want to over feed. Wish I could post my pics! Any help for this chicky is greatly appreciated!!
