Critical 2.0 XL (First Grow)

@@Mr_Mary_Jane, So my tent is in my basement and the temps are mid to upper 60's. I believe my 1000W LED is more like 400 actual watts if I remember correctly and it runs super cool. I was actually hoping it would warm the temp more than it is. I tend to read about new things obsessively and then lose track of whats what, and that's how I went about this growing thing. I remember reading that autos, especially super quick growers can thrive in 24 hours of light, so I decided to give it a go. I did not soak my soil first, as I had read mixed reviews on it. Instead I just went straight to PH watering. I used a dropper to make sure the water was contained to just the root area and went easy. Soil monitor is reading the soil as moist, as well as the finger test. The height of the light had me perplexed the most. I have read heights that vary by 2 feet at this stage of the grow so I went with the middle ground. I have gone up and down ~3 inches but have not noticed much change. I am now also battling fungus gnats. Since the other plants didn't make it, I took them out, greatly reducing the gnats, and I also gently added Diatomaceous earth this afternoon. I didn't water for 3 days to try and stave off the gnats, but had to give some droplets to the plant today. I have the fan blowing as close to the plant as I can to dry the topsoil while still not burning the leaves. We'll see what happens. I am no longer hopeful for more than expensive education from my last plant, but I'll take it happily if it leads to better growing days. Thanks for checking back in and offering your knowledge and support. Cheers!
