Is she a lost cause already?

[Monkeypox]

Im not a child, a moron or someone who hasnt done their homework. I purchased ALL this equipment before constructing my closet and long before I germ'd my seed. TDS Meter, Digital PH meter, PH calibration liquids, all my nutes, syringes for measuring, gllons of distilled water, ph up and down and so on.

Nobody reads posts I guess because I said I ph'd the the water I soaked my RW in for 24 hours. I also adjusted the ph in the soak 2 other times because it rose and made sure the run off was at about 5.5 before I put my germ'd seed into the cube.

The only thing I didnt have was that chart lol but I am more prepared then most newbie growers I see on the forums I frequent

Don't get so defensive . You admit this is your first grow . No matter how much you "study" it all comes down to actual experience . The people here for the most part are very experienced and knowledgeable . Sometimes questions are asked a few times . Just take a breath and give an answer .

Personally , I would have started with more than a single seed . It is always possible to get a dud . And my brief experience with LED leads me to believe it's better to start plants under floro for a short period of time then use the LED , rather than bang straight away with the LED.

Just my .02

telling me I need a TDS & PH meter is FAR from help. But ok cool, it's my fault people didnt read my post and gave me generic advice.

Your giving me generic answers i asked what PH and you repied with

I used room temp distilled water. When she sprouted from the rockwool yesterday morning the seed was still stuck on it around noon, by about 6 or 7PM it fell off. They looked better yesterday full green, but today theres hints of yellowing.

Some people say they have the kit but they don't because their buddy uses tap water with ok results.


I regret even bothering to waste my time in this thread.

Funny , when I was in the military I would get new mechanics every once in awhile . They all went through the military school to be mechanics . They all read the books and studied etc . but when I would send them out on the line to actually FIX a vehicle , they would fall apart . Why? Because books and studying only give you a base . Actually doing the task gives you the experience that lets you solve problems that a book can't diagnose for you .

Same goes for growing . It takes more than a book or video to know what you are doing . You need to get a feel for what is going on with your plants . That is where people here can help . But you need not be combative/sarcastic/etc . You asked questions because you didn't have the answers . People WILL be willing to help if you have a good attitude.

Rev11, that last comment probably cost you the goodwill of alot of the very people you need help from and actually was kind of childish & moronic.

When you ask for help from people who are donating their time and knowledge for free, you should be quite a bit more accomodating.
I am no dummy either, read plenty, did my homework etc..... My first grow has pretty much been a failure. My "bookreading" and smarts have not helped me figure out what years of experience has taught many of the people on this site. To be honest, I was fairly surprised to have failed so dramatically on this grow, as I grew some pretty nice plants as a teenager with no knowledge, bad soil, neglect, etc..
So I am more than willing to answer every nuanced question as the answer just might provide the "aha" that gets me back on track.
Often times they want clarification on something that has already been stated to make sure the statement was accurate and to determine if there might be some hidden variable that was not obvious by the prior statement.

Id say your LED is to close like agito said,it will make your node spacing to close,I'd say take it up,I have mine about 14 to 16 inch during in veg..I can't see you getting much more advice tho with that shitty attitude,not the way to make friends that's for sure
