High everyone, nice to be apart of the family. I'm doing my first indoor grow, and only grow in the last fifteen years. I planted some Mexican dirt weed when I was a young teen, thats the extent of my "experience". I've decided to grow in Coco and Perlite under nine 23 w CFLs'( 9 2700k, 7 6500k, 2 5000k) to be switched out during cycles. I'm starting with 2 five gallon buckets and one 3 gallon. Ill be posting a grow journal soon , hopefully these sweet seeds sweet skunk will pull through, i think they might be stunted..

:styles rasta: welcome to the site. lots of good info and people here who are willing to help.
 
I'm pretty sure I over watered and watered without a high quality meter as well throwing everything off, my TDS and high quality ph meters come tomorrow, I was using a cheapo one (3in1 soil probe 12$) and growing the seedlings like soil instead of hydro. I also panicked after I found out I'm suppose to grow coco like hydro and threw a 33% solution of Botanicare Pro Grow on them till 10% drained (further over watering probably). That's when they really started to look bad. I used Burpee Organic Seed Starting Mix (95% coconut fiber,perlite, humates and fertilizer derived from aerobically composted turkey litter and hydrolyzed feather meal) .06-.03-.03) with 1 part MG Perlite(0.04 - 0.01 - 0.06) 7 to 1 I think (probably should have left the Miracle grow Perlite out since it already had Perlite, and its miracle grow. ;) ) Here are some pics (don't laugh, I know you wont but they are sad lol :) These are day six, day seven today has barely any change. I also just put 8 oz each of Canna Rhizotonic solution on them as a last ditch effort. I'm also thinking If I should dump my entire mix because I used Miracle Grow Perlite and it has mild Nutes, and the Organic coco has mild nutes aswell. Don't know if this will mess things up later when I try to be more precise in my feedings.
