Ecscuba said:@DavidLMO you got me thinking - I have a good grow light in there, but I am keeping it about 18 inches above the containers because it gets up to 96 degrees I probably need more focus on the lighting. Thanks for getting me thinking.


What light causes temp to rise to 96? Not the CFLs - at least my bank of 800 Watts eq does not get that hot.

The fan running will help to prevent legginess. Not much you can do after the fact other than transplant deeper. Many plants can handle that - some won't.

Well - even if someone cannot offer info that is spot on helpful, sometimes a way of doing things by others helps one think, put several suggestions together or just do something different that helps.

Best of luck.
