  4. Stop watering for few days. Stick your finger in soil a inch in and see if it's moist before you water

  6. Overwatering for sure, cut back, they only need water about every 3-4 days right now, let them search for water so the root system developed faster

  7. Yea there starting to look better man. You need a light closer to them. Our grows are about the same, I'm 12 days in.. I'm about 3" away with my lights.

  8. She looks very happy! What is the reason you put pebbles on top of your soil?
    My lights are closer then it looks like on the pictures, because I move them up to make better pictures.

    I've heard that a top layer of pebbles can help slow evaporation/drying out, and that it can help with soil temps too since it's reflecting a lot more of that intense light back up. I have no evidence to back any of that up though  :rolleyes:
     
  11. Yea I added them to lower my soil temp and so it don't dry out to fast.

  13. Thanks!
     
    Thank you both for the advice, will keep this in mind for future grows!  :hello:
     
    I have a very busy week now, but when I can I try to update daily  :smoke:
     
    Day 20:
    Bad news: I think the NLA is dying or allready dead...  :(
    Good news: I have a backup NLA  :yay:
    Her seed fell off very lately, so 1 leave has a weird shape because of this.
    The Royal Dwarf is still going great  :D

  15. Yes she died last night... RIP NLA  :(
     
    The good news is I moved the backup NLA from the green cup to the big pot and now this is my new main NLA  :D

  16. What kind os soil are you using? Do you close the PC up all day? Are you just watering or you have ferts?

    Got the soil from a friend, he said its an organic light soil mix.
    Yes the PC is closed all day (except for the 3 times a day I inspect the plants and make some pictures).
    I'm just watering with normal water. There is a BioTab in the big pot. I have some nutrients, but because this is my first grow and its an autoflower I'm not really sure about using them. They are:
    - Biobizz Bloom
    - Biobizz Grow
    - Biobizz Top-Max
    - Greenhouse Powderfeeding Short Flowering
     
  18. That biotab might be the cause of growth stunt and may be the reason the other one died.

  19. And leave the case open for a few hours a day to get as much fresh air as you can get in there and see if that helps her.. I don't even use my side of the PC yet because the lights are on 24/7

    I moved the NLA (which was planted later than the Royal Dwarf) yesterday to the big pot (see post #55), so I don't think she can allready be growth stunt.
     
    Thanks! I'm gonna try this, can't do it too much because its a stealth grow, but will try it when possible  :smoke:
