I am a new to this and im just doing this as a hobby(and to smoke). I have a few plants from a few days old to 2 weeks. Im trying to do this as cheap as possible. I have 4 CFL lights inside the grow box. One is a 27w 6500k, other 2 are 27w 5000k, and a 20w 2700k. (Im looking to add a 65w 6500k CFL soon) I know i should be using all 6500k but they are hard to find for cheap. will this harm the plants? i have 2 27w 5000k bulbs laying around but not sure if the 20w 2700k is better? The grow box is 2'x2'x1' and covered in foil for reflectivity. I know a little bit about growing but i am doing a trial and error run. Lights are on 18/6 but sometimes 20/4. The plants are within 2 inchs of the lights and are about 4"-6" tall now. i noticed today that 2 of my plants have a very small brownish spot on the tip of one of the leaves. its not wilting or looking sick just like the color has been sucked out of that tiny spot on the leave. Wondering if it it nutrient burn or light burn or mites? should i stop feeding nutes? i give them a very low dose of miracle grow every time i water and i mist the leaves every few hours(Yes, i tend to them constantly). Root system starting to get big, i need to transpant within the next week. Also i need to make a bigger grow box. These are bagseed but looking like champs right now, other then the small miscolored spots, they are getting big and strong. I now have a fan running to circulate the air. It stays about 80-85 degrees in the box with the lights, and about 75 degrees with them off. im about to put a few pics up. If this goes well then i plan to order some seed online. Any good and cheap seed sites? Any suggestions? P10-12-11_21.30.jpgP10-19-11_17.37.jpgP10-19-11_17.38.jpgP10-19-11_17.39.jpg
