Hi! Everyone!! I started some Nasturtium seeds on Aug 15 indoors to get a headstart on Fall cool weather annuals. I just transplanted them from peat cells to 4 inch pots. They all have new growth but the growth is very yellow. Are the plants too far away from the gro-lites? They are about eighteen inches away from the grolites. When they were in the peat cells, I kept the light source about three inches away. It is a little too hot here to take them outdoors (104.5 degrees Fahrenheit in the afternoon). The weather should be a little cooler about the third full week of September. Should I start tapering them off of the grolites and adjusting for the sun? I am really at a loss as I have only started annuals like this last spring when I grew some beautiful salvia annuals that are still blooming.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Chuck

Take care,

Chuck
