Yeah, you're good then. Just gotta let the bacteria do their thing. No rush, man.

Yo, sounds like your cycle's just chillin'. Mine took like 4 weeks to fully kick in. You got any plants in there? They can help speed things up, but honestly, just let it ride for now.

Bruh, my plants were wilting too till I realized my heater was busted. It was flickering temps between 75 and 82. Got a new one, plants perked right up. Check if yours is acting weird.

No prob, fam. Let us know how it goes. Plants can be tricky, but you'll get the hang of it.

Yo, sounds like you might be low on iron, fam. Check if the veins stay green while the rest yellows. That's classic iron deficiency. Try adding some iron supplement, like Flourish Iron, and see if it helps.

My dwarf lettuce has gone downhill since I got back to work and couldn't keep up with the dosing. I used to do potassium and Seachem Flourish but now I'm just using Flourish. It was looking good before but now it's a mess. The main problem is all the tiny leaves everywhere. Anyone got any advice?
