The first two embryotic leaves you'll see (the round ones, the very first ones that brought the plant from dirt to light) are called cotyledons, aka; seed leaves.

These little guys give your plant enough nutrients up until AT LEAST 2 weeks above soil. (this is why a seedling will grow without light if left in the dark for a few days) Also keep in mind the seed provides quite a few nutrients for the early stages in life.

What were the N-P-K ratio of the nutes you used? How much EXACTLY is 1/4 to a gallon? (1/4 tsp? 1/2 tsp?) ect.
Then I'll stop giving it nutes. The directions said 7 drops per quart I put 4 in a gallon of Voss spring water, then filled a spray bottle with that. I'll go back to straight spring water. How often and how much should I water> I have been doing like three or four squirts (I have it set as a stream) from the spray bottle right around the bottom of the plant. I believe it was 10-5-10.

Btw, I'm jealous of your camera.
And CFL's are cheap. Do you think I'm better with one bright one right on top instead of 3 bright ones 6+ inches away?

And the camera is a D70 with either my Nikon 50mm f/1.4 lense shot in macro mode or my Nikon 24-120mm f/3.5-5.6 AFS VR lens.

I like cameras
