Hey, I have 10 sprouts from seedlings right now. 4 northern lights and 6 random strain. now my problem is that my northern lights sprouts are tiny compared to most of the other sprouts. I give them all the same care. Is there a reason why some grow faster than others? aslo how do I speed up growth in the slower growing ones?
 
I wanna post a pic but I don't understand how to .

SUPERTHRIVE is a vitamin type nutrient that is cheap easy to find and will make your plant grow like mad . use it sparingly .will also make the roots grow too . just add a 1/4 teaspoon to a gallon of water . NO NUTES this early .

To post a pic , when you are typing your reply , on the bottom of that same screen is a tab called " manage attatchments " click that tab . then click one of the browse tabs and search you computer for the pics you want . when ya get the pic you want hit ok . THEN hit the "upload" tab .
if you have done this right it will list the pic in that window . close that window and send your reply . PICS have to be 193.5KB or smaller . I resize all my pics to 600 x 800 pixels and they seem to work fine . wish ya luck !



PEACE:D
 
I wouldn't give them anything. Try a seedling mat. It's like a heating pad for your plants. Keeping the root zone a lil warm can speed your growth.
 
Okay I just tried to upload the pic in this post.

if it comes up you will see my 4 northern lights in the top right corner of my grow tent. the other 6 are the random seeds. see the difference in size? I moved the NL plants to where the bigger ones are hoping that it is the location.

oh yea they're all about a week old give or take a day.

they're under 400 watt hps

1/4 tsp os ST per gallon of water mixed really well and

1 to 2 tsp per day every day thats what i did
 
id just use daylight to start them mine grow loads in the window
 
Don't tell them that they CAN'T use HPS for vegging. Sure the blue spectrum is best. I have used cfls on my last grow and now used HPS. The HPS worked better for me by 2 full weeks. The cfls took 2 weeks longer to put into flower. HPS is a great source of light. Maybe not have all the blue but still a great light to use.
