Welcome to Week 5! :D She was definitely starting to look deficient today, so I decided to go ahead and water her with the nutes despite the soil still being a little bit moist down lower in the pot. I increased them a bit too, I guess we'll see if she likes that. I hope they cheer her up!

The color is starting to return to the base of those lower leaves, so that's pretty cool! I'd like her to grow upward a bit so I added a spacer today. We'll see what happens! If she starts going upward a bit too much I'll throw in another bulb.

Suddenly, growth! Up a CM. I'd like to see more.. Let's go, Planty, let's go!

Growth spurt!
Definitely noticing a bit of nute burn. Though I'd rather her have this nice dark coloration with a bit of burn than go back to being pale and malnourished. I intend to stick to this amount of nutes once a week, or every other watering, and see what happens as she grows! :)
It looks like her first set of full fan leaves have come in, too! :D

So proud of my little girl :')
@Halite, hey buddy! Not one problem!! I'll be keeping a close eye on your grow ! Best of luck mate. Don't hesitate to ask if you have any further questions!!!
@Finitos,
Thanks so much for the advice! She seems much happier today with the decreased light. I am glad you came around! Without you second-guessing the problem I might not have lowered the wattage again.
@Halite, hey mate! Great question as to this is a highly debated topic. When it comes to diagnosing your plant, it becomes rather difficult and confusing as you do your research. This may be a combination of things, maybe overwatered slightly coupled with a bit of light stress. As your plants grow towards the light you typically want to see some growth between your nodes thus giving you an indication that your plant growth is at a healthy pace. My 2 cents mate, is to experiment with remedies such as you stated before. Check your plant everyday and react from that point on! Give her a few weeks mate! I'll be following
And I'm sure u will do better next time.You are gonna have to step your game up more if you want better results the second time around.Bigger pot and better lighting.
The leaves have nutrient burn from too much nutrients - CFL s are painful and never worked well for me - my advice get an led if you have heat issues - 👍Also Ph is very important 6.5 is perfect for soil
