| Good day everyone, Sorry to bother you guys but Im getting a bit worried here. Ive been growing Tomatoes (San Marzano) from seed and everything was going great. Then I noticed my plants started to turn purple at around week 2. Ive heard that's normal if they are getting to much light but should not be a problem. So I just cut back on the amount of time I had my lightbox on (14hrs a day) Now Im noticing a second set of leaves are coming out but my 1st set of leaves is dying off.... Is this normal? The second set of leave look good but I still worry. Second, My Squash is also on its second set of leaves but I seem to be getting discoloration on the edges of my 1st & 2nd set of leaves. Is that normal? Could I be giving them too much light? I did have them at about 1" away from my natural light but now have moved them down to about 3" from it. Any advice will be greatly appreciated. I will be taking pictures of them during my lunch hour and posting them up for you to see. Thanks! |

| Here are some shots of the Squash and Cucumbers. I'll have to retake pictures of the Tomatoe as they are all out of focus. |

| Here is a shot of the Squash Plant and some info for all of them: They were planted about 3 weeks ago, have been on a light box for about 16hrs a day and now I have brought that amount down to 14 since I started noticing the change in the leaves. |
