So I planted just 1 crop king seed 2 weeks ago and the strain is lamb's breath. I'm going crazy over all the specifics basically... the plant so far seems to be looking good but I'm curious about one of the leafs on the plant. Also wondering what the best height for my light would be. I'm using a 300w full spectrum LED grow light, my medium is sunshine mix #4 with gaia green all purpose and power bloom nutes mixed into the medium. Just watering with ph of around 6.5 but when I test my soils ph it's around 6.7 or so.. does the ph of the water affect my soils ph? I have a bag of aluminum sulfate to lower the ph but trying to figure out the right amount to use. HOW MUCH water does this little guy need? Any help would be much appreciated, as I am going crazy (and probably overthinking it)... lol

heya @Pistol95 and :welcome: to afn! :toke: she might be a wee small for her age, but sometimez, they're jus slow starterz ;) all the work at this stage is goin on underground & u don't alwayz see much action upstairz ;) fwiw, soil has an ability to more or less buffer ph on it'z own, and thus, is a somewhat more forgiving medium...but ya, water ph can affect soil ph all the same...it can be a balancing act at timez, lol, but after a few growz, ya kinda jus get the hang of it...right now, ur ph no'z sound good :thumbsup: as far as water amount, i meself grow in smaller 3L potz & jus mist the soil up til 10-12d, then start givin 1-1.5 oz water daily...the whole trick is to be sure & water in a ring, away from the stem, so that the lil rootz are forced to find the water on their own, and thus, grow :smokeit: jus uze the tipz of the widest leavez as a judge ;) otherz will chime in & anything else u need, jus give a holler :thumbsup: oh, and above all -> p a t i e n c e grasshopper :smoking:

ppp & :goodluck:

So in your opinion, how does my setup and the plant itself look...? Lol am I doing things right so far and just overthinking it? Also the light height is good eh? Thank you for your quick feedback! I really do appreciate it
